What our customers say about pdfFiller

See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
It has allowed me to "type" forms that I would have otherwise needed to hand write or type on an old fashioned typewriter (which I still have). I didn't like the way the numeric columns lined up. I didn't see a way to insure that they were all right aligned.

Very easy to use. I tried several free PDF services for editing PDF documents and I was totally lost. PDFfiller meets all my needs. Is reasonable in cost.

free trial is great thanks but not sure how long i will need access for. I can cancel my subscription and thats great too but it means that i most likely wont pay the first subscription. Great for me but not for you. My point is, I would have been more than happy to pay maybe a "pay as you go" fee. Something like £2 to download for example, then maybe i would have to subscribe to use the other options available. just a though. thanks for a great site though :)

As a real estate broker, I have used the PDF Filler to fill out contracts and personal forms. Ease of use. I was able to figure out how the software worked and used it within 15 minutes. This was great because I needed it as soon as I could get it working! I honestly believe the software can be figured out easily by the vast majority of people. If not, they should be able to get assistance easily.

What I liked best about the service was how it handled my documents. It preserves the quality of the pages and allows me to rearrange them as needed. Simply amazing!

What do you like best? We have used PDFFiller for years. I like the ability to use editing tools other apps charge extra for. The ability to use the mobile app was especially useful when we were in a bidding war for the purchase of our home. We were able to edit and sign purchase agreement on the fly. What do you dislike? User interface has not been updated in a while and feels a little clunky. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We have clients sign documents and contracts. We are able to edit PDFs directly rather than scanning or retyping documents in a word prove easier.

PDF Filler - Very Helpful PDF Filler is an easy way to find and download documents. However, being in South Africa and having to pay in US $ is just too expensive.

This is what makes the file so large: Excel is picking up a lot of empty cells and thinks there's data in them, which then it tries to save into the XLSX file on disk, and because it needs to keep references to all those hundreds or thousands of cells, the file size gets overblown.
Ways to Reduce Excel File Size Remove unnecessary worksheets, data, and formulas. The number of worksheets and the amount of data contained in an Excel file are directly related to the size of the file. Remove formatting. Remove Pivot Cache. Save in binary format (. Compress the file.
Compress individual pictures With your file open in your Microsoft Office application, select the picture or pictures that you want to compress. Under Picture Tools, on the Format tab, in the Adjust group, click Compress Pictures.
To remove all empty cells, follow these steps: Press CTRL + SHIFT + RIGHT ARROW key to select all the columns after this one, up to the end of the empty columns. Then press right-click and select Delete.
Reduce the number of worksheets If you have worksheets with data that you're not using—and that don't contain any formulas you're using—delete them from the spreadsheet. The more data points you have in your workbook, the larger your file size will be. Removing unused data will reduce your file size.
There is also a very handy keyboard shortcut to delete rows (columns or cells). Press Ctrl + – on the keyboard. That's it!
