AcroForm Interactive Field Inspection & Population

AcroForm Field Inspection

The parser inspects the document catalog for /AcroForm dictionaries, extracting interactive text inputs, checkboxes, radio groups, and dropdown options with their default values.

Interactive In-Browser Population

Fill out form fields through a streamlined, mobile-friendly interface. Values are written directly to field dictionaries in memory, preserving interactive usability for recipients.

Optional Post-Fill Flattening

Choose between leaving form fields interactive or flattening them into permanent page text to lock values before official submission.

Technical Notes
  • •Works with standard interactive AcroForm PDFs; non-interactive scanned forms can be annotated using the PDF Editor.
  • •Populated documents can be saved, re-opened, and modified in any standard PDF reader.
  • •All form data stays completely private inside your device memory.
