How to create a fillable PDF form
A fillable form turns a static document into something people can complete on screen and return — no printing, no ambiguity.
Add real fields
Place text fields where answers go and checkboxes for options. These export as standard AcroForm fields that work in any reader.
Label clearly
Keep each field next to its label and size it for the expected answer so the form is obvious to complete.
Test before sending
Open your form in a plain reader and fill it yourself to confirm every field behaves.
In FreshPDF
Add text fields and checkboxes with the form tools in the editor — they bake into real interactive fields on export.
