Frequently asked questions
Why flatten a PDF?
Flattening makes the answers part of the page, so recipients cannot change them, and the form looks the same everywhere.
Can I undo it?
No — keep the unflattened original if you may need to edit the fields again.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Bynd PDF runs entirely in your browser, so your files are processed on your own device and never sent to us or anyone else.
