  2. Choose the files below PDFs.
  3. Press Run (Ctrl+Enter) and watch the progress bar.
  4. Download the result, or copy and share the link.

FAQ

Yes — free with no signup, no credits and no limits on this tool. It is supported by clearly labeled ads placed away from the buttons, never by paywalls.

Do I have to upload my files to use Flatten Form (note)?

No. Your files are read with the File API and processed with pdf-lib and pdf.js engines loaded lazily on your own device — there is no upload endpoint at all. Open DevTools, go to Network, and watch: your file never leaves the tab.

Which files work with Flatten Form (note)?
