About this plugin

You put a PDF form on your site. Visitors download it, print it, fill it, scan it and email it back, if they remember. Then you retype the answers.

SimplePDF Embed turns every PDF link on your site into a form your visitors fill and sign right on the page. Nothing to rebuild: link a PDF the way you always have.

Get every filled PDF back, automatically

With a SimplePDF account, visitors click Submit and the filled PDF lands in your dashboard. No chasing.

  • Email alerts on every submission
  • Webhooks to send filled PDFs to your own systems
  • Export the form data to CSV or Excel
  • Required fields, so forms come back complete
  • Your logo in the editor (Pro and above)
  • Filled PDFs saved to your own storage (S3 or Azure Blob Storage on Pro, SharePoint on Premium)

Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial: see the plans.

Free, without an account

Visitors fill and sign your PDFs, then download them. The document is filled in their browser.

Works the way your site already works

  • Every PDF link opens in SimplePDF by default, whatever the extension case (Consent.PDF) or query string (form.pdf?ver=2)
  • Or limit it to the pages and posts you pick, and try it on a draft before going live
  • The settings page lists the PDF links on your pages, posts, Site Editor templates, patterns and menus, and where each one opens
  • Add the exclude-simplepdf class to a link to keep the browser’s own PDF viewer
  • Visitors who browse with an AI assistant (ChatGPT’s browser, Chrome with WebMCP) can ask it to fill the form for them, and check every answer before they submit. One checkbox turns it off.

What visitors can do in the editor

  • Fill fillable forms, or add text, checkboxes, pictures and signatures to any PDF
  • Add, delete, rotate and merge pages
  • Works on desktop and mobile, in every modern browser
  • Works with the block editor and the classic editor

External services

This plugin uses SimplePDF to open your PDFs in an editor on your page. Filled PDFs stay in your visitors’ browser, unless you have a SimplePDF account and they click Submit. The settings page also checks that your SimplePDF account exists.
