Hey everyone.
Welcome to Yes To Tech, where we empower non-techie online entrepreneurs like you to maximize
your online presence.
First of all, if you don’t know how to create a PDF form, make sure you watch my video on
how to design gorgeous lead magnets and PDFs in Canva.
The link to it is below this video.
Okay, so once you have that PDF form ready, open up your browser, and open up a site called
PDF escape, which is a free online PDF editor.
Click on ‘free online’ on the left-hand side, and then click on ‘upload PDF to PDF
escape’, and click on ‘choose file’ to locate and open your existing PDF form
that you want to make fillable.
Okay, so as you’ll notice, the PDF you created will open up in your browser.
Let’s say I want to make this section over here fillable.
To do so, all you have to do is click on ‘form field’ from the top, right-hand side, and
then from the popup that appears, select ‘text paragraph’ from the dropdown menu, and then
click ‘select’.
Now click and drag, so that your text paragraph box occupies the same space as the box you
had previously created.
If you made a mistake in the box’s size, you can resize it by placing your cursor on
top of these black squares, and resizing the box so that it’s in the shape you want.
You can edit the text’s font, size, appearance, and color, by editing these settings in this
toolbar up top.
Once you’re satisfied with your box’s appearance, just click on this grey area around
the PDF.
To create a new fillable box, just repeat the same process we went through.
To delete a box, just right click on it, and press delete object.
When you’ve added all fillable form field sections to your PDF document, click on this
green button on the left-hand side panel to save and download your PDF.
Now when you open it, you’ll see that everywhere you added the fillable form field, you can
go ahead and fill it in right from your browser.
And that’s it.
Now you know how to create a fillable PDF form for free.
Again the link to PDF escape, the FREE online PDF editor that we used in this video, is
below this video if you’d like to check it out.
I now want to hear from you.
Let me know if you plan on using PDF Escape to create fillable PDF forms for your business.
