Complete text fields, checkboxes and dropdowns
Open a PDF containing fillable fields, complete its supported fields and export the result.
How it works
- Open the original PDF containing fillable fields.
- Complete supported text fields, checkboxes and dropdowns. Review all fields before export.
- Choose an editable or flattened output, then reopen it and confirm the saved values.
Use the original PDF for form filling. Unsupported form types are identified. You can keep fields editable or flatten the completed form.
When to use this tool
Complete supported PDF forms without printing. Use Add text when the PDF has no fillable fields.
What to check before sharing
Unsupported form types may not work. Flattening makes the completed values static, so keep an editable copy if you will need to revise them.
Supported files
Supports text, checkbox and dropdown fields. Choose editable fields or flatten the completed form.
Inputs: PDF. Performance depends on your device. Download important work before closing the browser; local storage is not a backup.
Troubleshooting
If the file will not open, check it in another PDF reader. If it is password-protected, use Remove a PDF password with a password you know. For scans that need selectable text, run Make a PDF searchable first.
