I feel as though I may have caused my own problem. Your service covers all the forms I need and I thank you for offering to fix my issue in such a timely manner.

What do you like best?
I like the choice of fonts because one can add changes or complete empty fields to a pdf and by using a different font from the original text it is clear that the additions are different from the original.. Also I like that one can add circles, check marks, "X" to a doc. And can erase portions of text.
What do you dislike?
I dislike that you have to pay extra to add or subtract pages from a pdf.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
My hand writing is very poor. So I use PDFiller to compensate for this deficiency..

This is an excellent service that I would not have subscribed to, had it not been for the special low price. Your initial rate was way too high. Thank you for lowering the price. Keep it low and you'll keep me as a customer.

Handy service. Swift support. I am amazed Let me share with you my experience frankly. I needed to edit a one single pdf document. Found this service. Registered for a free trial. Edited the document swiftly and smoothly. And forgot about it. Till the moment I received a charge for the yearly subscription. Which, admittedly, is not low at all (though may be reasonable to those who use this service).Anyway, I contacted pdfFiller support team, and I was surprised by both: 1) the fact that they immediately agreed to issue a refund, as it met their policy (I canceled in less than 24 hours, actually, immediately) 2) that even though they told that I will receive the money back within 1-5 business days - I got it within a few minutes. I am perplexed. The only pity really is that I can't afford it

Good Features but you have to nothing is for free I was so delighted by how easy and intuitive this pdf editor is to use. You upload a word doc you want to convert to pdf or a pdf file that you want to edit. You edit and are very impressed. Until I tried to save. It's browser based but it basically does everything you wish you can do to a pdf file. The interface is very intuitive and can get you going n the first sitting. It will let you edit but you will be unable to save your work until you subscribe. Not another free trial!

Well-designed and functional, user-friendly I use pdfFiller almost every day for my business proofreading for court reporters. It's been invaluable, whether I need to save a PDF in a different format (.docx, .xlsx, etc.), combine hundreds of pages or PDFs into one PDF, or quickly edit a PDF. I searched long and hard to find this program, which unlike other PDF programs I tried (including Adobe), consistently delivers on what I need it to do, is well-designed, functional, and user-friendly. And on top of all that, support responds almost magically quickly to questions or issues, like I had today, which in a deadline-driven business like mine is invaluable.
