How it works
01
Upload your PDF
Open DocHub and drag your PDF into the browser, or click Select Files to choose one from your device. The document loads straight into your browser, ready to fill.
02
Fill in the fields
If your form already has fillable fields, switch to the Pointer tool and click each one to type your answers, check boxes, pick a date, or drop in your signature. If the form has no fields, use the Manage Fields menu to add Text, Date, Signature, etc. fields exactly where you need them. Or just use the Text tool to type straight onto the page.
03
Save your completed form
Review your entries, then you can download a copy, share a link, or send it on for signature. Create a free DocHub account to save or share your PDF.
Experience the benefits of Fill Out PDF
No Downloads
Everything runs in your browser. No installs, no plugins, no waiting for software updates before you can fill out a form.
Every Field Type
Type into text fields, tick checkboxes, choose from dropdowns, add initials, drop in dates, and sign — all from a single editor.
Google Drive Ready
Pull PDFs straight from Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, or Box, fill them in, and send the completed copy back without re-uploading.

If a PDF arrives flat with no fields to click, use Manage Fields to add Text, Checkbox, Signature, and other field types exactly where you need them.
Send to Sign
