There's no instructions of what forms are available. I use two that I've researched and used but a listing of all forms and a more convenient method of printing would be helpful.

It was good. Hard to edit one document due to not being able to insert words. It was a lot easier & more convenient than finding a typewriter or printing the form having to use white out for goofs.

I am in a struggle with the Home Office. I have to fill out multiple forms repeatedly. I bought Adobe but it did not work. This software is very straightforward and I am sharing the document with my Barrister, which saves me money, time and avoids confusion

There doesnt seem to be alot of "man in the street" logic to how you explain things. It seems to be written by Code cutters or IT people. Lots of simple things like , I look up how to save a document. You say : Save your document by clicking the 'Save as PDF' button in either the "MyForms" . There is NO such button only a "save as" button. Also Where is the "My Forms" page? is it named as such or .... ????Bascally though, its a great piece of software. You just have to get a REAL human being to rewrite instructions.

PDFfiller is the best, hands down I've used just about every PDF filling service I can find and although PDFfiller is on the pricey side, I've found them to be the best because of their drawing features, beautifully organized website on both desktop and mobile, and super fast customer support. If you need to fill out PDF's regularly, I'd say PDFfiller at $6 per month is easily worth the money.

I really enjoy using PDF filler. I consider my self to not be computer savy at all. I would really like it if there were a webinar to help people like me understand this app.

It works great and I had 1 slight problem It works great and I had 0 problems until I had to sign up for a subscription before being able to download the very important documents I had started. Would be better to let people know beforehand unless I, myself, didn't see such thing.
