About this tool
After you fill in a PDF form, flatten it so the answers cannot be edited or removed. Each page is saved as a picture exactly as you see it, including typed text, ticks and signatures. This is useful before you email a form or upload it to a portal. It runs in your browser, up to 150 pages.
Frequently asked questions
Can I edit the PDF after flattening?
No. That is the point. Keep your unflattened copy if you may need changes.
Does the file get bigger?
Sometimes. Choose a lower quality to make it smaller.
