How to do it

  1. Add your file

    Add the PDF form and a spreadsheet — CSV or Excel. The first row holds the headings: name each column after a form field.

  2. Set it up the way you want

    Choose whether the filled forms stay editable or are flattened so the answers can’t be changed.

  3. Download the result

    Download one filled PDF per row, together in a ZIP. With a file column, each PDF is named from it.

Questions about Fill PDF forms from Excel

How do I find the field names?
Run Export PDF form data on the empty form and choose CSV: the first row lists every field, ready to use as your headings. Fill in the rows below and bring the file back here.
What goes in a checkbox column?
Yes or no, true or false, 1 or 0, or x for ticked. For a list that allows several choices, separate them with semicolons. An empty cell leaves the field as the form has it.
Is my spreadsheet uploaded?
No. The form and the spreadsheet are read and filled where you are working; nothing about the people in your rows reaches us.
