VERY CONVENIENT!!!! I had something urgent to fill out and I couldn't fill out the form and this helped me to fill out and E sign as well as send it by email. Thankful I found the site. Needs to be advertised more. I could have used this years ago.

Great concept - I can finally share my documents with people. Although it would be good to be able to switch things off like the steps clip note as on some of my pages there are 300+ fields to fill in!
2016-05-07
Wonderful - the only way to make it better is to make it free or at least cut the cost in half. Thanks so much!! All in all a wonderful service and really worth the price!

My need for a Blumberg standard lease was satisfied, however the number of typographical errors in the form were surprising and correcting them caused a change in the font!! Very frustrating!

Very Helpful Product
This product has been very helpful when a document only comes in PDF Form and I need to fill it out on my computer.
The layout is a bit confusing and the website is not easy to use. Sometimes the text of documents gets squished together.

I canceled my trial but maybe I didn't…
I canceled my trial but maybe I didn't complete it on my end. Either way the subscription was charged to my card and I contacted support which usually is a nightmare when you have billing problems and it was honestly quick and painless. Great service and they got my refund and account canceled quickly. Thank you to Alice from support

Searching for a form that I had…
Searching for a form that I had difficulty finding elsewhere, I found it here upon oa couple tries. Having trouble with the editing, which I always do. This site is superb, I'm just a tech dummie with a capital "D". Gotta go or I'd say more. Thank you for your excellent product and great free trials.

Is a 5mb GIF too big?
Evan advises keeping files under 5 MB. At 5 MB, a subscriber will probably only have to wait a few seconds for images to load. Here at Litmus, we're trying to keep GIFs under 1 MB to guarantee speedy load times and to not eat up too much of our readers' data should they open our email on mobile while on the go.
How do I compress a GIF to 5 MB?
Step 1: Go to the online image compressor and click the Add Images button to upload one or more GIF files. Make sure the maximum number of GIF files is 40, and the maximum size of each GIF file is 5 MB. Step 2: Once GIF files are uploaded, this website will compress your GIF files automatically.
How many MB should a GIF be?
Uploads are limited to 100 MB, although we recommend 8 MB or less. Source video resolution should be 720p max, but we recommend you keep it at 480p. Keep in mind media will appear mostly on small screens or smaller messaging windows.
Is GIF file size large?
As I touched on above, GIF files tend to run large. A GIF can be ten times the file size of an identical movie file. If you want good-looking GIFs that can be shared around the web, this presents a problem. If you're using high-speed broadband then loading a 10 MB GIF embedded in a webpage isn't a problem.
Is a 5 MB GIF too big?
Evan advises keeping files under 5 MB. At 5 MB, a subscriber will probably only have to wait a few seconds for images to load. Here at Litmus, we're trying to keep GIFs under 1 MB to guarantee speedy load times and to not eat up too much of our readers' data should they open our email on mobile while on the go.
How much data is a GIF?
Do GIFs take up data Not infrequently, it is more than a megabyte for a three-second animation. Even YouTube videos are more economical and should be expected to consume two to more than 10 megabytes per minute.
