Bake form fields and annotations into page content. This guide explains the practical workflow, what to check in the output and when another tool is a better fit.
When to use this tool
Upload a reviewed PDF and flatten supported form fields and annotations into static page content. Keep the interactive original.
A practical example
Create a static copy of a filled application when the recipient does not need editable fields.
Check the exported result
Reopen the result and check that all field values, checkboxes and visible annotations remain legible.
Common problems and limits
Flattening reduces editability and is not equivalent to redaction. It may invalidate an existing digital signature.
Choose the next step
PDF Forms fills supported fields before the flattening step.
Files, privacy and saving
This workflow uses temporary server processing after your consent. Review the upload notice and avoid processing material you are not authorised to use. Keep your original, review the downloaded result and choose a clear filename before sharing it. The privacy policy explains the processing approach.
