PDF filler has been a true hero for me and my daughters competition projects and has placed first!
It is very easy to use and convenient! I love how there are many options for fonts and sizes and how easy it is to print the document and save it!
Sometimes when I print out the documents it is really tiny and hard to read. This is the only con to using this product that I can think of.

A great move for my professional career, being able to fill out and sign forms digitally as a self-employed musician and house painter who has to do all the clerical work themselves is a huge advantage. Thank you for this great service.

How do I add initials to a PDF?
To insert initials to a PDF document, use the Insert > Place Initials menu. Click the Create New Initials item to add new initials or select one of available initials to place initials in the document. The Open Containing Folder item opens the folder where all available initials are stored as PDF files.
Why can't I fill and sign my PDF?
Make sure that the security settings allow form filling. (See File > Properties > Security.) Sometimes form creators forget to convert their PDFs to interactive forms, or they intentionally design a form you can only fill in by hand. If you can't type in the form fields, then the fields are probably not interactive.
How do you fill and sign a PDF?
Open the PDF document or form that you want to sign.
Click the Sign icon in the toolbar.
The Fill & Sign tool is displayed.
The form fields are detected automatically.
Click the Sign icon in the toolbar, and then choose whether you want to add your signature or just initials.
Why is fill and sign greyed out?
2. Edit→Protection→Properties shows that filling of form fields and signing is allowed. 4. However, even after all this, all fields under the “Work with certificates” option in the Fill and Sign sidebar is grayed out.
