How Flatten PDF works

A filled-out form is still editable until it's flattened — the field values become permanent, static page content that can't be accidentally changed. Gojli's Flatten tool does this in one click.

  1. 1

    Upload your PDF

    Choose the PDF with form fields you want to lock in place.

  2. 2

    Flatten the form

    Gojli merges every field's current value into the page content and removes the interactive form.

  3. 3

    Download the flattened PDF

    Download the result — field values are now permanent and can no longer be edited as a form.

Frequently asked questions

Can I undo a flatten?

Not on the same file — keep a copy of the original if you might need to edit the form again.

Does this work on PDFs without forms?

It's safe to run, but there's nothing to flatten if the PDF has no form fields.
