Why choose our tool to Flatten PDF

Harder to Tamper With

Filled-in forms, comments and other interactive elements become part of the page, so they can't simply be edited or removed.

Prints the Way It Looks

No missing fields or shifted comments — the printout matches the screen.

Consistent Everywhere

Flattened PDFs display the same on every device and PDF reader.

Lighter, Simpler Files

Merging layers can make your file smaller and quicker to open.

Extra Protection for Content

Locking elements into the page helps stop form fields and layers from being changed or extracted.

Nothing to Install

Flatten PDFs right in your browser, with your document kept private.

Flatten PDF documents online

Quick and easy, no software required
