Excellent customer service -- quick response time and great problem-solving ability. I found the PDFFiller app itself to be a little cumbersome to use. I'd hoped it would allow me to do what ***** does but for less money, but it was more like *********

What if I have more questions?

Contact Support

How do you designate an electronic signature?

Draw your signature using your finger or a stylus. If you have access to a touchscreen, you can use your finger to create an electronic signature directly in your document. Upload an image of your signature. Use your cursor to draw your signature. Use your keyboard to type in your signature.

How can you tell if a Sharpie signature is real?

Look for a groove where the pen has traveled. If its flat then its more likely to be printed. Look on the back of the sheet. If you can see the signature in the paper (not shining through but on the surface of the paper) then it is likely a real signature.

How much does it cost to authenticate an autograph?

Most authentication companies charge a fee for evaluation, and may charge additional fees to issue you a certificate of authenticity. For example, JSA charges fees that range from $35 to $50 depending on the type of autograph you send.

How do you know if a COA is real?

An item that is witnessed being signed by a Genuine COA authorized representative is issued a tamper-proof, holographic sticker with an exclusive serial number. A matching sticker can be found on the certificate of authenticity that is issued to the owner of the signed item.
