I like the program, but I really needed the ability to add Bates Numbering. If the program would overcome some of the rather important limitations, this would be an excellent deal for the money.

I use it for contracts on a day to day basis and it’s extremely easy to use and very helpful.

Made my life easier by not having to go sign in person. Works very well. I love it I was able to sign pdf forms anf fill in info + sign using my personal laptop. It eould be awsome if I could use your software to process work related activities. It is very user friedly. It works fast and it is impressive how it communicates with my laptops. It works really well for my personal use But not for work. I work for Raytheon, and it could be that a firewall is not letting a full integration for using your wonderful software. I cant use it for work because my company laptop issued to me does not have some software required to process the integration into the work pdf files.

I have tried many PDF editors and to be honest this has the best user experience and least learning curve. I will recommend to others. The pricing is good and the fact that paypal is an option is awesome. Others only accept credit cards.

Help With Fillable Fields in Newly Created Documents Our ministry account created a new questionnaire form for our beloveds, but I needed help in knowing how to use the fillable fields to make it ready to publish and use in the ministry. Kara and some others were so great in helping me learn to do that. They were so patient and courteous! It was a pleasure to work with them as I am not computer savvy! I suggest that many businesses and anyone else who needs this service sign up for PDFFiller.com. We have been with them for several years now and are appreciative of this service!

cancelled as a gesture of goodwill I downloaded the software and although it has a lot of good features, I didn't really need it. I thought I had cancelled right then, but I haven't found any more mail from me. Now the annual amount has been debited and I have contacted their support. After I explained that I didn't actually use the software, the subscription contract was subsequently and I was refunded the amount.
