Frequently asked questions

Which field types can I add?

Single-line and multi-line text fields, date fields, checkboxes, dropdown lists and radio button groups.

How do radio buttons work?

Radio buttons with the same field name form one group, so only one of them can be chosen. Give each button its own value, e.g. “small” and “large”.

Can people fill in the form on their phone?

Yes. Fillable PDF forms work in most mobile PDF apps and in browsers.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. This tool runs entirely in your web browser, so your files never leave your device. That makes it safe for contracts, invoices and other private documents.
