Fill in a PDF form
Choose a PDF form and its fields appear here, page by page. Fill them in and save a new file, still a form you can change or flattened so the answers are fixed. It is done on your device, never uploaded.

How to fill in a PDF form
Choose your form, or drop it on the box above. Its fields are listed by page, with the label the form gives each one.
Type your answers, tick the boxes and pick the options. Only the fields you change are written; the rest stay as they were.
Choose how to save it, then select Fill in and save and save the new file.
Keep it a form, or flatten it
Saved as a form, the file keeps its fields, so you or anyone you send it to can still change the answers in any PDF reader.
Flattened, the answers are drawn into the pages and the fields are removed, so nobody can change them. Choose this for a final copy.
Tax forms and other forms made for Adobe Reader
Some forms, such as the IRS's 1040 and W-4, carry a second copy of their fields in Adobe's XFA format alongside the standard ones. This tool fills the standard fields and removes the XFA copy, so every PDF reader, Adobe's included, shows the same answers.
A few forms are made only in XFA: their fields exist only for Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader. The tool says so and leaves them as they are; fill those in Adobe Reader.
Your answers never leave your device
The form is read and filled in your browser with pdf-lib, a PDF library that runs on your device. No file, field or answer is sent to us or to anyone else. The tool itself loads only when you start, so the page stays fast.
How large can the form be?
It depends on your device's memory. If the file is too large for your device, the tool says so before it starts, rather than letting the browser close the tab.
A form protected with a password opens once you type its password on this page, and the new file keeps the same password and restrictions. A form whose maker forbids filling it opens only with its owner password.
