Efficient service I had great service and very efficient. I was asking for a refund ,which I thought I wouldn't get,to my surprise Pdf filler has given me the refund and it should be in my account within a few days. The sales assistant who I was emailing is named Phoebe. Phoebe made the whole process a breeze and was very polite. Thank you Pdffiller. I appreciate it.

What do you like best? GREAT to use, has lots of options and you can upload almost anything! What do you dislike? I wish that there were more options, like adding icons, or company stamps. I also have found sometimes when I download it there are lines that run through it, very frustrating when it took like an hour to manipulate a document, and it won't upload without random lines. What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you? Specifically AIA forms for commercial contracting, such a great tool!

I have only used it once before and I like it. Some of the fill-in spaces are challenging, but I'm sure it is because I haven't mastered the software yet.

There are some glitches There are some glitches, like if you type to fast it will double or triple the word your typing. But other than that it's great.
