Fill PDF Form Online

Fill in a PDF form in your browser, even one without fillable fields: type text, add dates, tick boxes and sign. Free, no sign-up, nothing uploaded.

Runs in your browser. Your files are never uploaded. How it works

Fill PDF Form lets you type on any PDF form, including forms that have no fillable fields. Place text boxes on the lines, add today’s date, tick the boxes with a check mark and sign at the bottom. Then save a filled copy. The form stays on your device.

How to fill in a PDF form

  1. Click Choose a PDF or drop the form onto the page. Every page is shown at full width.
  2. Scroll to the page you want to fill and click Text. A text box appears on that page. Type in it.
  3. Drag the box onto the line it belongs to. Use the corner handle to make the letters bigger or smaller, so they fit the line.
  4. Repeat for every field. Use Date for today’s date, ✓ Check for tick boxes and Signature or Initials where the form asks for them.
  5. Click Save signed PDF. The filled form is saved with -signed added to its name.

Click × on any item to remove it.

Tips

  • Match the line height. Resize the first text box to fit the line, then the next boxes are easy to line up by eye.
  • Typed text is real text. Text in Latin letters can be selected and searched in the saved PDF. Other scripts are saved as an image of the text.
  • Locked form? If the PDF needs a password to open, enter it when asked. The filled copy is saved without the password.
  • Several forms to send together? Join them afterwards with Merge PDF.
  • Scanned form looks sideways? Turn it first with Rotate PDF.

What it does not do

Fillable form fields already in the PDF are not filled in for you; you type on top of the page instead. Existing text cannot be changed. If you need to remove or rewrite printed text, edit the original document and export it to PDF again.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work on forms without fillable fields?

Yes. That is what it is made for. You place your own text boxes on top of the page, so it works on scanned forms, printed forms saved as PDF and any other PDF, whether or not it has form fields.

Can I tick check boxes?

Yes. Click ✓ Check, then drag the check mark onto the box and make it bigger or smaller with the corner handle.

Can I change text that is already in the PDF?

No. The tool adds new text on top of the page. It cannot edit or delete the text that was in the PDF.

Can I sign the form as well?

Yes. Click Signature to draw, type or upload your signature and place it on the signature line. Use Initials for pages that need them.

Is my form uploaded?

No. The PDF is opened and filled by your browser on your device. Personal details on the form are never sent to a server.
