Frequently asked questions

What does flattening do?

It bakes form fields, annotations and comments into the page so they can't be edited or moved.

Will filled form values be preserved?

Yes. Field values are drawn onto the page exactly where they appear.

Is it reversible?

No. Flattening is one-way; keep an original copy if you need to edit fields later.
