Frequently asked questions
What information does form inspection show?
It can identify supported field names, types, values, and properties used by the PDF form.
Why are technical field names important?
Automated filling must target the exact internal field identifier rather than only the visible label.
Can every PDF be inspected as a form?
No. A document may look like a form but contain only static text and lines.
Does inspection change the PDF?
The inspection workflow analyzes the document; keep the source unchanged for later filling or records.
