You may wonder how do I convert a PDF to an interactive PDF? The answer is PDFelement, which can help you convert PDF to fillable form with easy steps. You can enter data directly into fillable fields and then send the file to a client or business contact immediately without wasting time.
PDFelement helps you create or edit a PDF file, similar to how you would with a Word file. You can also easily convert your PDF into a fillable form. You don't need to be an expert to use this tool. Simply download the trial version and test it out. This user-friendly platform delivers the results you're looking for.
After launching the program, either drag and drop your desired PDF file into the program window, or you can select the "Open files" button to upload the PDF file.
Go to the "Form" tab and make use of the "Add text," "Add check box" or other tools to convert your PDF document to a fillable form manually.
Right-click on each field or button to change the properties. You can set attributes like appearance, color, and name, etc. for the fillable fields.
You need to right-click or double-click the text field to open the "Properties" pop-up window. PDFelement not only allows you to set the appearance of the text fields, but you can also go to the "Options" tab and set the alignment of the field text, whether you want to have multiple lines, character limitations, or other options.
In the check box properties window, you can go to the "Options" tab to change the style. The default style is a checkmark, but you can change it to a "Circle", "Furcation", "Diamond", "Square", and "Star".
In the radio button properties window, you can also change the style in the "Options" tab, as well as change other settings if required.
In the button properties window, you can go to the "Actions" tab and choose "Submit a form" Under "Select Action", click the "Add" button to select a file format that you want to submit. You can choose either to submit to "HTTP Address" or "Email Address," then enter your HTTP address or email address in the "URL" box.
If you choose to "Reset a form" in the option of "Select Action" under the "Actions" tab, click the "Add" button to select the fields or boxes that you want to clear once the button is triggered.
If you want to perform a calculation of multiple fields in PDFelement, you can also do this in the properties window. Open the "Properties" window, then in the "Calculate" tab, choose the second option to getting a sum, multiply, average, minimum, and maximum. Click the "Pick" button to choose the fields that you want to calculate.
After changing all the settings as required, switch to the "Preview" button on the top right. You can now start to fill in the fillable form. Then go to the "File" menu to "Save" the file directly. Following these instructions, you'll be able to convert a PDF to a fillable form without difficulty easily.
If you have a PDF with pre-existing tables or forms that are not fillable, then you can try using the automatic form field recognition feature in PDFelement to convert an Adobe PDF to a fillable form.
Open your pre-existing PDF form in PDFelement, or you can choose to open an existing form template.
Go to the "Form" tab and click on the "More" > "Recognize Form" button to detect the form fields automatically and create fillable fields.
After using the automatic form field recognition feature, you can change the properties of the fields using the above methods. Switch to "Preview" to start filling in the form or sending the form to others to fill out. As long as others have a PDF reader that lets them open PDF documents, they will be able to fill out the form.
The two methods above will help you convert PDFs to a fillable form without the use of Acrobat. PDFelement is a highly recommended program to convert PDF to interactive forms. It is known as one of the best software to convert PDF to fillable form, and will effectively enhance your productivity. As well as creating fillable forms out of PDF documents, you can also create a fillable form in Word.
