overall it is fairly easy to use and it is clear, but it is not straight forward if you want to continue on with the next form, ie when finishing one form 1099 and you wish to do anothe

The go-to for creating useful PDF files This software has become a go to for pretty much every PDF file I have to create. I have used it to create forms that our midsize business uses on a daily basis. I find it to be very user friendly and a quick and easy way to get what you need. It has positively affected our costs of printing and paper, and it's good not only for our budget but for the environment too! Customer service is not the fastest and sometimes I have a question that needs to be resolved that day. I read online that it depends on the plan you have purchased and I don't think that is the best way to treat your customers.

PDFfiller is simple and easy to use. It gets the job done. Easy way to have paperwork signed. PDFfiller makes the documents look very clean and keeps me organized. Also it is not hard to figure out how to use it. The customer support is amazing too. There are no CC options when sending out a document for someone to sign. I hope PDFfiller creates that feature soon.

I have been using ********** and AirSlate for over a year now to create digital documents and digitally signable documents. The system is very user friendly and all the options to automate my digital forms are logical and intuitive. I highly recommend this product for creating digital forms.

I had to start over, from hitting the wrong "back up", but have it okay now. I don't expect to need it again, but this software made it much easier. Thank you!

Although I do find it a bit difficult to find some of the forms that I am searching for I do like the program completely because it offers me the flexibility to take care of my business and to edit the necessary forms needed for my work. But I wish you would get a larger database of forms and templates for us to draw upon.

Other than being billed initially for a 30 days trial, I contacted Customer Service right away and they credited me back the $144 first year right away. Otherwise, I am liking the service so far. Just learning how to use it.

If you've saved the file Click File > Info. Under Manage Documents, select the file labeled (when I closed without saving). In the bar at the top of the file, select Restore to overwrite any previously saved versions. Tip: You can also compare versions by selecting Compare instead of Restore.
Ubuntu comes with LibreOffice as a part of the distribution. Open your file in LO Writer and edit. LO is claimed to be compatible with MS Office, but I'd rather say Word is compatible with LO Writer in that, that for most applications, LO Writer (and its native ODT format) is more stable and essentially fool-proof.
LibreOffice is compatible with a wide range of document formats such as Microsoft® Word (.doc, .docx), Excel (.xls, .xlsx), PowerPoint (.ppt, .pptx) and Publisher. But LibreOffice goes much further with its native support for a modern and open standard, the Open Document Format (ODF).
LibreOffice For instance, IBM Lotus Symphony is available for Ubuntu and is able to open . docx files. Perhaps it will give a better display than OpenOffice? It permits you not to create a Google or Windows Live account.
Can a DOCX file be edited? Microsoft Word (version 2007 and above) is the primary software program used to open and edit DOCX files. If you have an earlier version of Microsoft Word, you can download the free Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack to open, edit, and save DOCX files in your older version of MS Word.
If you need to create, open, and edit Microsoft Word documents in Linux, you can use LibreOffice Writer or AbiWord. Both are robust word processing applications that read and write files in Word . doc and . docx formats.
Co-edit a document After you share your document, you can work on that file at the same time with others. For the best experience, work together in Word for the web and see real-time changes. Under Share, you will see the names of who else is also editing the file.
Go to File > Info. Select Protect document. Select Enable Editing.
