About the Flatten PDF
The Zestools Flatten PDF gives you a fast, visual way to flatten pdf form fields and annotations into a static document. The interface is designed around the task — no hidden menus, no feature bloat — so a job that would take five clicks in desktop software takes one here. All processing happens on our servers and files are wiped shortly after you download the result, which means you get the convenience of a web tool without the privacy trade-off most free sites force on you.
