Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! You can upload any PDF and add new form fields to it. However, editing existing form fields in a PDF requires a different approach:

  • To add new fields: Upload the PDF and use this tool
  • To edit existing fields: Use our PDF Editor
  • To remove fields: Use the Flatten PDF tool

Absolutely! Forms created with our tool are fully compatible with:

  • iOS devices (iPhone, iPad) using built-in PDF viewer or Adobe Acrobat Reader
  • Android devices using Google PDF Viewer or Adobe Acrobat Reader
  • Desktop computers (Windows, macOS, Linux)
  • Web browsers with built-in PDF support

For the best mobile experience, ensure your form fields are appropriately sized for touch input.

This tool focuses on creating basic fillable forms. For advanced features like calculated fields, you have several options:

  • Simple calculations: Can be added using Adobe Acrobat Pro after creating the form
  • Form validation: Set field properties like "required" and format (numbers only, email format)
  • For complex forms: Consider using specialized form software for advanced calculations

Our form creator is perfect for applications, surveys, contracts, and registration forms that don't require calculations.

While this tool doesn't have a built-in save feature, you can work around this limitation:

  • Save your work: Download the incomplete form and re-upload it later to continue editing
  • Browser limitations: All work is done locally in your browser - refreshing will reset your work
  • Best practice: Complete your form in one session or save intermediate versions

For complex forms, consider creating them in sections and using our Merge PDF tool to combine them.

The tool is designed for most common form needs, with these practical considerations:

  • Page count: No hard limit, but very long forms may impact browser performance
  • Field count: Typically supports 50+ fields per page without issues
  • File size: Uploads limited to 100MB (sufficient for most forms)
  • Complexity: Best for standard forms - extremely complex layouts may need specialized software

For optimal performance, we recommend breaking very large forms into multiple smaller forms.
