Just making sure, the site will NOT save the data that I entered in the PDF? Thank you for sharing your side-project!

You’re welcome!

Indeed, the website will NOT save the data that you entered in the PDF.

In fact neither the data you enter nor the PDF that gets loaded is ever seen by my server: everything happens locally (including the actual PDF generation) [1]

Privacy is one of the key distinctive feature of simplePDF

The only thing that is saved is a fingerprint of the document that allows to match the field types and their respective positions (x,y, type of field, width, height…)

If you want to see it in action:

1. Download the Equifax form on your computer

2. Navigate here https://simplePDF.eu/editor

3. Load the PDF from your computer

4. Because the document fingerprint is “known”, the field types and positions are automatically retrieved from the server

[1] You may notice that after a browser refresh the data you entered is still there: that’s because it’s saved locally in the local storage of your web browser

Unrelated: some people have reported that the save button is not displayed in some cases: trying refreshing the page – I’ll work on a fix as soon as possible

This isn't working quite right for me (Firefox on Windows). The SSN field is a single text box and the numbers don't line up with the boxes on the form. I can pad with a single space, but additional spaces don't increase the padding.

Thumbs up for https://www.simplepdf.eu! Just generated the Equifax form.

Neat! How do I save in the filled out PDF??

There should be an EDIT and SAVE button on the right side if you’re on a computer and at the top if you’re on mobile.

If you can’t see either, this is most definitely a bug!

Could you try refreshing the page to see if it helps?

Thanks. The sidebar did not load the first time. But worked the second time. This is on iPad Pro 12.9 inches.
