Fill in a PDF form in Chrome
Applications, registrations, tax and school forms — most arrive as PDFs with boxes to fill. PDFPane finds every box, walks you through them, and lets you sign and download a finished copy, all inside Chrome.
What you can fill
- Text boxes, including multi-line ones, and number and date boxes.
- Tick boxes and radio buttons — click to choose.
- Drop-down lists — pick an option.
- Any language written in Latin, Cyrillic or Greek letters, with accents, typed correctly into the fields.
Step by step
- Open PDFPane in your browser and drop the PDF form in, or click Open a PDF. Nothing to install.
- The bar above the page tells you how many fields there are. Click the first one and press Tab to go through them in order.
- Something the form did not leave a box for? Click anywhere on the page and type there, or add a tick, a cross or the date.
- Sign if the form asks for it, then Download. Made a mistake? Undo takes back any step.
Good to know
- The form you opened is never changed: every download is a new copy.
- Opening, filling and signing work even with Wi-Fi off. Free: 3 downloads a month; Unlimited is $19 once.
- A few old government forms are "dynamic" XFA forms made for Adobe LiveCycle. No browser tool can fill those; PDFPane tells you so when you open one, instead of showing a broken page.
