Frequently Asked Questions
What does flattening a PDF do?
It converts interactive form fields into fixed content so the completed values are no longer editable as form controls.
Will the visible content remain?
Yes. Flattening preserves the page content while removing form-field interactivity.
Can I edit form fields after flattening?
No. Use the original PDF if you need to keep the fields editable.
