About this tool

About PDF Flatten Form Fields & Annotations

Flattening converts interactive form fields and annotations into ordinary page content, so a recipient can read and print the document but cannot type into it. Use it when a completed form keeps getting edited after approval, when an archival or PDF/A checker rejects a file because live field objects are present, or when you need a copy that renders identically in every viewer instead of depending on the reader's form support. Text stays selectable and searchable — this is not a rasterising print-to-image step. The PDF is parsed in your own browser tab, so nothing is uploaded, and the result is never stored on a server.
