This site was exactly what we needed to edit pdf's and create fillable fields for all of our school enrollment forms. The options for receiving the information when completed, as well as many other perks made this a perfect product for our use. We continue to find more and more uses in our school setting for using pdffiller. I highly recommend this product.

01
Access the Dashboard. Log in to your account or create a new one.
02
Upload the locked form. Select Add New, find a sample on your device or in the cloud.
03
Open the document. Enter the password for the last time to remove it from the record.
04
Modify the template. Insert fillable fields, watermarks, texts, images, or shapes to improve the document.
05
Manage pages. Reorder, delete, or add them by enabling the Rearrange option at the top of the left sidebar.
06
design the sample. Use the Sign tool to certify the form with a legally binding electronic signature.
07
Save the file. Select Done to apply changes, click Save As, set the parameters of your unlocked record, and confirm the procedure.
