See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
I needed on copy of a form, that is all and I was charged 120.00, that is an expensive copy. I have cancelled your service and would appreciate a full refund. Charge me for one copy fine, but not 120.00. Thank you

Easy to use -- several format/file extension options for saving and ability to link with cloud and sharing platforms makes this so versatile. Having the option to save a filled form as a template is very helpful. The customization and array of options is allowing me to complete tasks, for which I previously needed multiple programs.

****** works great, maybe a little inconvenient compared to *****, but that's why they are so much cheaper. For as little as we need a *** editor I could not justify the cost of *****, so this was a good alternative. *** some issues with my pay method after having them for 3 years. Wish I could have just updated my Pay info instead of having to cancel my plan and sign up again. That messed up a discount I had, but kudos to the customer service for being able to straighten it out. *** to do everything through chat because no phone number. Overall decent **************."

pdfFiller is user-friendly and the site is easy to navigate. I love the fact that a function stays the same until you change it, eg. a font size and format. However, I would like the option to use all the Fonts that I have installed on my own computer. When a page is duplicated, I'd love it if the 'changes' made to the original using pdfFiller, could also be duplicated rather than simply a duplication of the original document. I also can't seem to find a way to cut and paste text to apply it in a different area of the document, which means that the process of replicating a change is more time-consuming, but this could be my current unfamiliarity with the software. I was impressed that within a couple of hours of use, I was offered the option to attend a webinar to improve my understanding.

Is GIF file size large?
As I touched on above, GIF files tend to run large. A GIF can be ten times the file size of an identical movie file. If you want good-looking GIFs that can be shared around the web, this presents a problem. If you're using high-speed broadband then loading a 10 MB GIF embedded in a webpage isn't a problem.
How big is a GIF file size?
Uploads are limited to 100 MB, although we recommend 8 MB or less. Source video resolution should be 720p max, but we recommend you keep it at 480p. Keep in mind media will appear mostly on small screens or smaller messaging windows.
Is a 5mb GIF too big?
Evan advises keeping files under 5 MB. At 5 MB, a subscriber will probably only have to wait a few seconds for images to load. Here at Litmus, we're trying to keep GIFs under 1 MB to guarantee speedy load times and to not eat up too much of our readers' data should they open our email on mobile while on the go.
How do I compress a GIF to 5 MB?
Step 1: Go to the online image compressor and click the Add Images button to upload one or more GIF files. Make sure the maximum number of GIF files is 40, and the maximum size of each GIF file is 5 MB. Step 2: Once GIF files are uploaded, this website will compress your GIF files automatically.
How many pixels should a GIF be?
The number of pixels compressed into the image is the biggest factor for determining the file size of the GIF. Most of the time, GIFs are made to be less than 500 pixels wide.
How many MB should a GIF be?
Uploads are limited to 100 MB, although we recommend 8 MB or less. Source video resolution should be 720p max, but we recommend you keep it at 480p. Keep in mind media will appear mostly on small screens or smaller messaging windows.
