How to work with Toolbars in PDFill PDF Editor

Toolbars in PDFill PDF Editor

Frequently accessing tools through the menu bar is cumbersome. PDFill PDF Editor has floating toolbars which you can make visible for easy access to frequently used tools. You can drag the toolbars to any location in the PDFill window so as not to obstruct your view of the document. If you have made many toolbars visible, you can temporarily hide them to gain a better view of the PDF document.

If you need PDFill only for the fillable PDF Form Filling, you can turn off All the Editing Toolbars by PDFill Options => PDF Form => Simple GUI for PDF Form Filler.
