Using iPhone to complete apps and send out for signature.. Had some glitches.. Wasn't able to select or choose (full access or sign only option for recipients. The screen shut down too quickly each time and 'disappeared before I could actually select.

It is easy to fill out proposals with your template. I wish there was a way to make it easier to access it because I will be using that document many times and so far I have had to search for it.

I honestly cannot think of anything I dislike. I did some research before using this program and it fit my needs better than anything else.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great product for anyone who does not have access to a employer issued PDF document editor. It has all the functions of their competitors however I find it much easier to use and navigate.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I don't have access to document signing software through my employer. So now I am able to create fillable PDFs, Sign and Date documents without having to print out and scan into my email. It makes tasks quick and easy.

It's really easy to use PDFfiller compared to manually adding fields with standard graphic design programs.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I can create fillable documents very fast so that people that received my documents can fill them out without having to print them out. The documents that we produce with form fields are neater. We can process filled forms more smoothly and with fewer errors.

Greatest PDF Library out there
PDFFiller has one of the best PDF Libraries I have ever come across. every possible template you can think of, you can find. This site deserves every star in this rating. In all honestly this is even the first time I EVER wrote a review, but I am doing it just so the team behind this website knows that there are people who are grateful for your site, and your work. and I would like to speak for every single one of the ones who are too lazy to leave a review, but you have saved us countless hours of what would otherwise be, a lot of research to try and complete the tasks we had at hand.

The tool is a little hard to learn at…
The tool is a little hard to learn at first and takes some exporting and testing to settle on desired outcomes but was very happy with the end result. I canceled my use as i only needed it for one document but if i were regularly building docs like this i may have kept it.

Instructions and Help about Add CheckBox Fields in Forms Online For Free
pdfFiller makes it easy to create and fill out or modify various types of documents while preserving their original layout. This is made possible with the help of pdfFiller’s advanced “Fillable Fields” feature. There are six types of fields that can be added to make the form fillable: text, number, date, signature, image and checkbox.
The Checkbox fillable field feature makes it easier for the owner of the document to add checkboxes and require the recipient to check the applicable options and not miss anything. To add a checkbox field, click the Checkbox icon, then click where you want to place the field.
You can move the field around by clicking and dragging it, resize it by dragging the dots around the edges, and delete the field by clicking the trash can icon. When adding this fillable field you can customize it: Check the box, “Required field” if filling out a certain checkbox is mandatory; Choose checkbox type; Add a note to serve as a hint; Change the Database Field name; Add a group name if necessary.
Add text in order to make this process clearer for users. It will be shown in a navigation note after you save the changes;
By pressing the “Order” button on the right, you can define the order in which all the checkboxes must be filled. Press “Save” to save all your work on fillable fields.

Did you know?
Check boxes allow users to select more than one choice from a group of possible options. The name identifies what option the checkbox represents for the user. The export value indicates whether the user selects an option in response to a question. Each form field has options that are unique to it.
The first option will create text that, when clicked, downloads a Terms of Service document. The second option will show you how to add your terms/disclaimer text directly to the form no download needed, with special text formatting. To get started, you need to either create a new form or edit an existing form.
