Summary

When you upload a PDF file and click the Activate PDF Form button nothing happens. The button will not bring up the fillable fields when the PDF format for the file is a standard form.  You will need to update the format to a PDF fillable form. 

Key Points

  • In a PDF editor, make the PDF form fillable

  • If you're using Adobe Acrobat, see their website for assistance

  • We can make your forms fillable for you for a fee, contact us

For more information about creating fillable forms, visit Adobe Acrobat at:

Also, search YouTube for videos that explain how to make a fillable form. Here is one example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJJAeswnCiM

If you don't have Adobe Acrobat, we can make your forms fillable for you for a fee, which depends on the number of pages and the complexity of the form(s). Contact us for more information.
