Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference from full flatten?

This only flattens form fields. Full flatten also removes annotations.

Can the flattened values be edited later?

No. Once flattened, form values become static text embedded in the page. They cannot be edited or extracted as form data.

Will the document look the same after flattening?

Yes. All filled values appear exactly as they did in the interactive form — same position, font, and formatting.

When should I flatten forms?

Flatten before sharing finalized documents to prevent recipients from changing filled values, or before archiving to ensure permanent records.
