Fill an interactive form

Click any form field to activate it, then type. Click checkboxes to toggle them. Use Tab to move between fields.

Place a date

  1. Select the Date tool from Fill & Sign.
  2. Tap or click where you want the date.
  3. Choose the format from the picker and confirm. The formatted date is placed as a text annotation.

Place a check mark or cross

  1. Select Check mark or Cross from Fill & Sign.
  2. Tap or click the checkbox area. The symbol is placed at that point.
  3. Drag to reposition; use the size handles to scale it.
After filling a form, use Flatten (Tools › Flatten) to permanently embed the fill content in the PDF so it cannot be accidentally moved.
