Fill in PDF Forms
Foxit PDF Reader supports Interactive PDF Form (Acro Form and XFA Form) and Non-
interactive PDF Form. You can fill in interactive forms with the Hand command. For non-
interactive PDF forms, you can use the Fill & Sign command under the Home tab or
Protect tab to add text or other symbols. When filling non-interactive PDF forms with the
Fill & Sign tools, use the field toolbar or resize handles to adjust the size of the added text
or symbols to make them appropriately fit in the form fields.
Foxit PDF Reader supports for the auto-complete feature which enables you to fill in PDF
forms quickly and easily. It will store the history of your form inputs, and then suggest
matches when you fill out other forms in the future. The matches will be displayed in a
drop-down list. To enable auto-complete feature, please go to File > Preferences > Forms,
and select Basic or Advanced from the Auto-Complete drop-down list. Check the
Remember numerical data option to store numerical entries as well, otherwise, only text
entries will be remembered.
