pdfFiller for Pc

Update Update - They lied to me. They turned off the features again 30 days later. They claimed they had no record of my conversation and would not be grandfathering me in. It is a serious bait and switch. I’m an occasional user and if their pricing structure made any sense, I might even subscribe, but it’s ridiculously expensive and the updates are usually downgrades. They took a great app and completely screwed it up. Update - after speaking with their responsive support staff, they agreed to let me keep the features without the need of a subscription. I appreciate that they honored the original agreement and grandfathered me in. As I said in the original review, this is a great tool. One more step towards paperless! Original Review - This is a very comprehensive and integrated pdf editing tool. I have used it for over a year and it was my go-to for anything pdf related. I paid a flat fee when I purchased the app and thought it was a good value. With the last update the developer implemented a tiered subscription format ranging from $72/yr to $180/yr. WAY OVERPRICED...imo. In addition, I no longer had access to any of my features. I’ll just write off the flat fee I paid and move on to other, more reasonably priced apps. It’s really too bad, because I loved this platform.

This app was great when I downloaded it 6 months ago, I started a new program in school and just needed as easy to use for taking notes in class on the I-pad I bought for school. Like I said at first (the first 5 months or so) it worked great exactly what I needed. Then a few weeks ago some of the notes I would take on lectures started getting erased where I put them and getting moved to the first slide of the presentation. This was not a big deal and I thought it was just a small glitch until this week. I had a presentation with 100 slides and took notes on most slides. Then I open the app today and all the notes are covering the first slide not a single note was left anywhere else in the entire presentation and I have no way to make sense of any of the notes or know what they meant. I might fail my exam now because of this. Very disappointed in app that did work very very well when I downloaded it! Not sure what kind of “updates” were made but it really ruined my studying.

I don’t own a computer so any kind of documents that I need to sign or fill out I use my phone for. Had a few documents I needed to sign so I downloaded the app and it was great for the most part, a few annoyances here and there but no biggie. Now that one issue I could not get past and which eventual caused me to delete the app was any time I had a document with multiple pages it was impossible to get text/signatures in the correct lines. Example, if you have to enter text on page two of a document it will save it to page one. This is due to when you start a text box it snaps the screen to that text box. If the text box is at the top of the page it will register as page 1 of 3 instead of 2 of 3 (represented by the small grey box that shows which page you are on when you scroll to a new page.) So while you are filling your document out it will appear on the correct spot but when you save the PDF and reopen it, it will save the text to the first page and not the second. This makes it nearly impossible to fill documents out that contain more than one page.

I recently got rid of Adobe Acrobat DC and needed a way to edit some PDFs. At first, I thought the application was adequate, until I saw that they were asking for $20 a month (for monthly) to even print the document. I found that you can close the document, save as, and eventually get it exported to a place like Drop Box or Google Drive, but the price for basic features is beyond a reasonable price, especially if you haven’t seen the entire application in a full trial. If the application worked without serious bugs, then I’d be more willing to pay money for it. However, when I closed a document, any text I added on the second or third page went up to the top of the first page. I had to try 9 times to finally get it to stick. It looks like I had to take a few actions with additional edits for it to save the text I entered. As a software developer myself, I consider that to be a serious issue, and should never get to production while a bug like that is not fixed. This especially is important when charging $20 a month for the product.
