Whether you have a scanned paper form or a document from Word — here's how to make it fillable.
Open JustFill and upload any PDF — a scanned paper form, a document exported from Word or Excel, or even a photo of a printed form. JustFill renders it in your browser so nothing is uploaded until you choose to process it.
Use the Draw tool to click and drag rectangles over every area that needs to be filled in. Name, address, date, signature line — just draw a box where each one goes. This is completely free and takes a few minutes for most forms.
On a paid plan, click "Detect Layout" and AI will analyze your document and create fillable fields automatically. It detects input lines, checkboxes, text areas, and table cells — even on scanned documents. You can adjust any field AI creates.
Type directly into each field, or paste all your data at once and let AI map values to the right fields. You can also dictate data by voice. Every field is draggable and resizable so you can fine-tune placement.
Click "Download Filled PDF" to get your completed document. The original formatting is preserved and no watermarks are added. The result is a standard PDF that opens in any viewer.
Save your field layout as a template so you never have to set up fields again. Next time you need to fill the same form type, upload the new PDF, paste your data, and download — the fields are already positioned.
There are several ways to create a fillable PDF. Here's how they stack up.
| Method | Difficulty | Cost | Works with scans | Flat PDF support | From Word/Excel | Reusable templates | AI field detection | No install needed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| JustFill (Online) | Easy | Free / from $9.99 | ||||||
| Adobe Acrobat Pro | Medium | $22.99/month | ||||||
| LibreOffice Draw | Hard | Free | ||||||

No matter where your PDF comes from, JustFill makes it fillable.
