Frequently asked questions
Will Flatten lock my PDF?
No. It only makes form fields part of the page so they cannot be edited. It does not add a password and does not turn pages into images.
My download looks the same. Did it work?
If the PDF had no fillable fields, there is nothing to flatten. Try it on a form you have already filled in.
