Save PDF form - how it works
You cannot save PDF forms with Adobe Reader. You need a different program for this. We show you which and how to do it.
How to save PDF forms
If you have a PDF form that you want to fill out, you cannot usually save it with Adobe Reader. Adobe Reader does not take the changes into account when saving. Therefore, proceed as follows:
- Download the PDF-XChange Viewer from us for free.
- Install the program and open it.
- Then open the PDF form to be completed with the program.
- Fill out the PDF form as desired and save it by clicking on "File" and then "Save As".
- If you now open the document with Adobe Reader or another PDF viewer, you will see the form together with entries.
Tip: If you also have to put a signature under the form, you can also do this with the PDF-XChange Viewer. In another practical tip, we will show you how to insert the signature into the PDF document.
