What our customers say about pdfFiller
See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
I had a very good experience with customer service when I wanted to cancel. I did not realize that there was a form available for no charge. This was a one time thing since in my line of work I really don't utilize this type of service. For those that do, it is a valuable tool

I am so happy that I found this. It makes completing so many forms so much easier. Additionally, I've got forms that must be completed that are now no longer fillable through the agency that created them. This will allow me to continue to fill the forms.

I have been a short time user. I downloaded a document; tried to then sign it, which was ok, but when I downloaded it did not pick up the entire form; all preprinted matter on the form did not download to the email I sent.

What do you like best?
The ability to edit PDF documents quickly and easily
What do you dislike?
When documents are locked by other applications such as DocuSign you cannot sign them or open them with this software. You are however able to sign them on that platform after creating a separate logon with DocuSign.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Ability to send to sign is a huge time saver in getting contracts signed by sellers

A Great Product to create PDF documents
Having client's sign documents and creating forms.
The ability to create, fill and sign PDF documents was the best part about this software for me, personally.
I thought it was worth every penny and I also thought it was beneficial to have a free trial initially as well.

Happy with the service
It has been easy to use
I like that is allows me to edit PDF's - and that all of my colleagues can log in and use the same services from their computers.
I find it takes too long to save and open documents

Easily Add and Delete Pages From PDFs
PDFfiller has saved me a lot of time combining PDFs and adding/deleting pages. Definitely a must have software.
I like that I can easily add and delete pages from PDFs. They also make it super easy to combine PDFs together.
Overall, very happy with the platform. Might be nice if there was an option to upload and download to Google Drive.

Instructions and Help about Edit Within Files Online Using pdfFiller For Free
Did you ever need to edit a PDF document, like that registration or application form that you needed to complete online? In the past, you probably had to print the form and manually edit it, filling its fields, adding pictures, highlighting text, and adding your comments. Then, you would either scan it or send a hard copy to wherever it needed to go. Besides needing a printer and a scanner, the process probably took you far too much time to complete. Now there is a far easier way to edit PDF documents. You can simply use pdfFiller as online document editor! To get started, upload a document to your account or open one that’s already there. Any PDF document is instantly editable in pdfFiller. In the main toolbar, select the Text button, click where you’d like to place the text cursor and type.
To change the position of your text, click the arrow icon in the mini toolbar above, while holding down the mouse button, drag the content where you’d like to place it. Change the text size by using the tree icons above or by selecting from the drop-down list in the formatting toolbar. You can underline, italicize or make your text bold.
You can also change the font type and text color by choosing them from the respective drop-down lists in the formatting toolbar.
To add text to a PDF document, you don’t have to type, you can also copy it from any other document. You can create checkboxes, drop-down lists and fillable fields for text, numbers, signatures, initials, dates, and photos. The technique for adding fields is the same for all field types. Open the Add Fillable Fields tab on the right.
Select the field you need, for instance, the Text field, then drag and drop it where it should be in the document. Resize the field by dragging its corners or edges. Use the text formatting tools to preset the field’s text format including the font, size, color and alignment of text. It will be impossible to change the text format while filling the field.
To delete a fillable field, click on the trash can icon above it. You can also highlight, erase or black out any content, as well as sign and add pictures to any PDF document. When you have finished editing, click the Done button and email, print or save your document.
