PDFFiller saved my books! PDFFiller saved my books! As a young author, I had no idea what I was doing and deleted my original documents once the books were published. I only kept the print-ready PDFs. Years later, I realized there were a lot of spelling mistakes and errors in them, and wanted to re-publish. Since the books had photos, I couldn't simply convert to a doc. Most PDF tools online didn't work, or put on watermarks. PDFFiller allowed me to edit the text in the PDFs, to correct the spelling mistakes, and merge the documents into one cohesive PDF again. I was able to republish an edited book without the original documents, thanks to PDFFiller. The one thing I missed that could make this a fantastic tool- the original book was 8.5x11. I wanted to republish at 6x9. I ended up having to resize it through a different tool, which simply shrunk everything instead of being able to directly resize the content. Due to that, the book appears much smaller on the pages than it should, and I've received some complaints that it's harder to read. If PDFFiller had a viable PDF resize tool that worked to resize the content versus simply shrinking the document, it would be a stellar addition to the repertoire.

Awesome software! Very easy to use and great to help fill PDF's and create them. I use this software very often and I rarely have issues. Sometimes it lags and it can be a pain, but overall this is a great software to use and I don't have many cons.

Great editing. Could use some better freehand options All the editin options are just soooooo practical and useful. i really get work done fast. a better handwritting option would be amazing though. the current one is too choppy

Good for someone who isn't tech savy While I'd like to think I am pretty good with a computer -- I am by no means the level of a graphic designer or anything like that. But I do a lot of work with pdfs that need to be tweaked a bit and this is easy to use! The initial use can be a little daunting to someone who is new. But it's easy to figure out once you get a hang of it.

How often does one get 5 star support? How often does one get 5 star support? Unfortunately the answer is not often at all. But today was different. I got 5 Star Customer Support from Kara on Team PDFFiller. More importantly Kara was patient and guided me to work through the problem with my login issue. Success all the way around. Happy customer is a loyal customer. Thank you Kara.

It took a like while for me to figure out how to do what I wanted to do. But once I did, I was able to create the doc I needed. The part I liked best was the guidelines to put the fillable boxes in line with the other boxes in the document.

This has been a great tool for me This has been a great tool for me. Trying to apply for a new apartment has been difficult due to the quarantine but this allowed us to sign and fill out whatever we need with little interaction with others. The 30 day fee trial was great for me and I will recommend this to anyone who might need it.
