What's the difference between “Share” and “Sent”

pdfFiller's Share feature allows up to 10 users to collaborate on the same document. SendToSign allows you to request a signature from up to 20 recipients, with the option of receiving a unique copy of each signed document, or all signatures on a single document (signed in serial or parallel). A pdfFiller account is required to access and edit a shared document, and one will be created for any collaborators or signers that do not already have one when you send your invitation or signature request.

What is Sent? When do I use it?

SendToSign allows you to request digital signatures on any document from up to 20 other people. You have the option to request a unique copy of the signed document for each signature with SendToEach, or request all signatures on a single document with SendToGroup (professional plan or higher required). Business plan subscribers also have the option to choose the order in which SendToGroup recipients sign a document with Sign in Order.

How does SendtoSign work?

When creating your SendToSign signature request you can choose to send up to 20 unique signature requests with SendToEach, or request up to 20 signatures on a single document with SendToGroup (professional plan or higher required). Business plan subscribers also have the option to choose the order in which SendToGroup recipients sign a document with Sign in Order. We'll send your recipients an email with a direct link to the document, and a copy will appear in current pdfFiller users' Signature Requested folder. A pdfFiller account is required to access the document, and we'll create and include login credentials to a free account for recipients that do not already have one. Recipients will be able to sign and return the document for free with pdfFiller.

Can I try SendtoSign myself before sending a document to my client?

You won't be able to send a document to the email address you are sending from with Sent, but you may send documents to another email address you own. Just be sure to use a different browser to retrieve and sign the document with the secondary account, or log out of your original account in your primary browser before attempting to retrieve and sign.

How can I retrieve the filled and signed document that I sent with Sent?

We'll email you notification when the document has been signed, and you can also check the document's status or view the document in the SendToSign History folder, located inside the Scent [and History] folder in Forms.

Can I request multiple signatures?

Yes! With Sent, you can request up to 20 signatures at a time, per document. You can also use SendtoSign as many times as you would like for any document.

Do my SendtoSign recipients have to be pdfFiller subscribers?

Recipients are not required to have an existing pdfFiller account for you to request a signature with SendToSign. However, if a recipient does not have an account, we will create a free pdfFiller account for them and provide them with login credentials automatically.

I was having difficulty finding the legal documents I needed fillable copies you provided the access I needed. and my software wasn't allowing me to just fill in the documents online, I am finding my way around but if I can make it easier I am all in.

Good overall editing app Multi function capability, I like the fact that it can enable you you edit your pdfs and then publish in various ways Lot of the extra functions you have to pay extra for. Lot of the functions you may need you may have to pay extra for which is a turn off

This morning my subscription to PdfFiller was automatically renewed. Once I realized it, I notified the company to cancel my subscription and to provide a refund. Within a short time, I received a response confirming that the subscription was canceled and that the charge was reversed. I would definitely recommend this company and would use them again if I had a need.TL

*** ****** is literally the best *** Filling *** out there. ******. All the functionalities of *** filler are remarkable and make doing business a complete breeze. Unfortunately the Platform I use daily - is cheaper however - isnt as functional as *** filler. So I tried completing my need with them as I have used them in the past. So I signed up for the trial - attempted my documents - I failed; closed the window and forgot about the subscription. This morning I woke up and saw the charge, I couldnt remember what Email I even signed up with. I emailed *** ****** at 5 am and got an immediate response with an agent ready to help. They asked easy questions and were able to locate my account and issue an immediate refund. I dont think there are words to express how incredible and unmatched that level of customer service is. Thank you *** ******

This program is a life saver. Only that I wish I was able to push the numbers over to the side a bit and make them a little bolder. I pray that they don't see the imperfections and I can get my loan approved. Thanks for the help pdffiller.

What do you like best? I like that making forms fillable is super easy and that the platform is affordable What do you dislike? pdfIller can be a little confusing to use, so it isn't necessarily intuitive when I'm trying to find my docs that I created versus the filled out ones that come to me What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? getting forms signed remotely!
