Most user friendly program I've ever used. The instructions are clear and modifications are easy. It's almost like the program knows what you need and does it for you.

I first tried PDFfiller with a trial subscription and to be honest, I really just wanted it so I could add text to a document and I didn't plan to extend my subscription. But after trying it, I liked it so much, I continued the subscription after the trial and my subscription expires in 2 days and I plan to renew for another year. I'm a freelance paralegal and often need to add text (and complete forms) in .pdf format. The program is also very easy to use and has many great features (like "erase" and different font styles and sizes). My subscription has more than paid for itself and I would - and do - highly recommend PDFfiller to anyone looking for this type of program.

The conversion from Pdf to word was the smoothest I've seen. There are very few errors. AMAZING! After reviewing the document I noticed that the conversion dropped the letter F. If there were two f's in a word the conversion dropped one of them.

Mostly user friendly. Filling in multiple of the same form is not available, or finding that option is impossible. So I used same form over and over - using tab you also have to back space or use mouse to remove previous data and then fill in.

Easy to use. It's good that we have this product cause we can just sign PDF's without printing. Sometimes it's hard to place the 'typing icon' in the right place for filling in information or data.

Their program is wonderful. I had a special project last year and it performed as expected. This year project over, subscription wasn't necessary but it automatically renewed. I cancelled it and within MINUTES customer support responded they were processing the refund. Exceptional customer support. I would highly recommend this service.

pdf Filler is surprisingly worth the investment pdf Filler is surprisingly worth the investment. I don't have a PDF application on my computer, so having one online that I can easily use to view, fill, and send documents has been a huge help for work and personal use.

Instructions and Help about Transcribe Image Text For Free

Transcribe Image Text: make editing documents online a breeze

The PDF is one of the most common document format for numerous reasons. PDFs are accessible from any device to share files between devices with different displays and settings. It will look similar no matter you open it on a Mac or an Android device.

Data security is another reason why do we rather use PDF files to store and share private data and documents. PDF files are not only password-protected, but analytics provided by an editing service, which allows document owners to identify those who’ve opened their documents in order to track any and all potential security breaches.

pdfFiller is an online document management and editing tool that allows you to create, modify, sign, and send your PDFs directly from your browser. Convert an MS Word file or a Google Sheet, start editing its appearance and add some fillable fields to make a document singable. Forward it to others by fax, email or via sharing link, and get notified when someone opens and fills it out.

Use editing tools to type in text, annotate and highlight. Add fillable fields and send documents for signing. Change a form’s page order. Add images into your PDF and edit its appearance. Ask your recipient to fill out the fields and request an attachment. Once a document is completed, download it to your device or save it to cloud storage.

Complete any document with pdfFiller in four steps:

01
Get started by uploading your document.
02
To modify the content of your document, click the 'Tools' tab and highlight, redact, or erase text.
03
To insert fillable fields, click the 'Add Fillable Fields' tab on the right and add them for text, signatures, images and more.
04
When you've finished editing, click the 'Done' button and save or email your document.
