Helpful for Digital Signature Overall the PDF filler is amazing and free! These days, a lot of people don't have printers and scanners. Also, a lot of us are working from home. This software makes it possible to sign documents without printing and scanning. My least favorite thing is that you have to create an account to save your document. It would be nice to not have to provide my email to save the document.
