Flatten PDF
Turn every page into a single fixed image page, so forms and layers cannot be changed.
Your file is ready.
DownloadHow it works
- Choose a PDF file.
- Click Flatten PDF.
- Download the flattened PDF.
Honest note: pages are rebuilt from rendered images, so the text layer is not preserved and text cannot be selected afterwards. Form fields become fixed print, which is the point of flattening.
