Wow! This is so helpful! Thank you for sharing. Going to use this to create my business' first lead magnet. :)

I love DocFly as well! Do you know if there is a way to add a box in form creator so that my students can draw freehand when I send them the fillable PDF?

[@stephaniejoyce6896]

Thank you so much for this. I'm wondering how we would receive the filled document back from our customer?

[@usmanzofficial]

Thank you for this valuable lesson. My question is the data we entered in this PDF form where it will store? How can we download it? In what format? And how can we get it?

[@NickyPasquier]

Too many questions I'm afraid Mohammed.

Thank you so much Nicky! I was using PDFEscape to add editable PDF fields, which looks similar to this tool, however, nowadays most people are using cell phones and when I send the forms to them the PDFEscape don't work, especially on Android. Do you know if this tool provides a solution for smartphones too?

[@NickyPasquier]

Hi Elis 👋🏼 lovely to hear from you. If you send the finished PDF via your smartphone you shouldn't have a problem, no. Make sure you download it though from DocFly. There may be an update later so look out for that ;)

[@ElisBuges]

@Nicky Pasquier Thank you so much Nicky, I'll try it then! And I will also wait for the update! 😍🙏

Thank you for sharing this, Nicky! I've created my fillable PDF on Docfly, downloaded it and now I'd like to host a link to it on my website so customers can complete the form and send it to me. I've uploaded it to Google Drive but when a customer completes the form the data stays there so the next customer will see it. I'm sure it's a simple step that I'm missing - any ideas?

[@NickyPasquier]

Hi Marilyn, the mistake you're making is by sharing your doc to Google Drive. Anyone with the link can then edit your original document.

[@StampingCreationsWithMarilyn]

@@NickyPasquier Thanks so much! I think I've got that problem fixed now but I have another question that I'm hoping you can answer...can put in a formula to sum a column in my fillable form? If so, how?

[@NickyPasquier]

@@StampingCreationsWithMarilyn Ah, I'm afraid that's not something I know much about, Marilyn. Sorry!

I need help, I created the pdf with the fillable boxes, now how do I share it with my clients to complete it? Do they need to open it in a special app? It looks beautiful, not sure how to share it. :(

[@NickyPasquier]

Just download the PDF and share ;)
