How it works

Three steps. That's it.

1

Open your PDF

Drag and drop your PDF into the app. Nothing is uploaded anywhere — it opens right in your browser.

2

Click and fill

Click any field and start typing. Add tick marks, crosses, change font size, or erase text as needed.

3

Save instantly

Download your completed PDF straight to your device. Clean, filled, ready to send.

No account. No delays. No unnecessary upload.

Features

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

Total privacy

Your PDF never touches a server. Everything runs locally. No one else ever sees your documents — not even us.

Type anywhere

Click any spot on your PDF and start typing. Adjust font size to fit any field — tiny boxes or wide lines.

Tick and cross marks

Place checkmarks or crosses anywhere on a form. Perfect for consent forms, applications, and legal documents.

Change text colour

Pick any colour for your text to match form requirements or stand out clearly on the document.

Erase and undo

Made a mistake? Erase any text you've added and start fresh. Non-destructive — the original PDF is never changed.

No install

Runs in a modern browser with no heavy desktop software or browser extension to install.

FAQ

Questions answered.

Correct. PDF Form Filler runs entirely in your browser using local processing. Your file is never sent to any server — not ours, not anyone's. It's one of the core reasons we built it this way.

The editor loads in your browser and keeps your PDF on your device. For the strongest privacy message, we recommend opening the app while online, then saving your completed PDF locally.

It works with any standard PDF file — government forms, contracts, applications, invoices, and more. If it's a PDF, you can fill it.

No account, no sign-up, no email address required. Open the app and start using it immediately.

The core PDF filling tool is completely free for personal and home use — no hidden catches. Businesses and commercial users can purchase a one-time Business Licence ($9.90 NZD) for commercial use rights, priority email support, and use by up to 3 people in the same business.

The editor stays simple and private for everyone. The Business Licence gives you permission to use PDF Form Filler for business, workplace, client, or commercial documents. It also includes priority email support and covers up to 3 people in the same business. It is a one-time payment, not a subscription.

Because it runs in your browser, it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, and most modern mobile devices. No installation required.
