About Fill & Flatten PDF Forms
Interactive PDF forms are convenient until you need a finished copy that looks the same in every viewer. Fill and Flatten PDF Forms reads existing AcroForm fields, including text fields, checkboxes, dropdowns, option lists, and radio groups. Upload a form PDF, fill the detected fields, and optionally flatten the form so the entered information becomes regular page content. Flattening is helpful for simple applications, intake forms, checklists, internal paperwork, and reusable templates. Digital signatures and scanned non-interactive forms are outside this tool's scope.

Are signatures supported?
Digital signature workflows are not supported in this browser-only tool.
What kinds of fields can I fill?
The tool supports common AcroForm text fields, checkboxes, dropdowns, option lists, and radio groups.
When should I flatten a PDF form?
Flatten when you want the filled values to appear as normal page content instead of editable form fields.
