It doesn't seem that PDF24 currently offers a way to make fillable forms or interactive PDFs. Is this a possible future feature? Thanks!
Is there a way to make a PDF form interactive to fill out fields in the form?
We have such topics on our TODO list, but currently we can not provide a solution here.

Hello, I love this product and so grateful for it. I'm wondering if you are going to add a "Fillable" Tool, to enable adding fillable fields to our own documents. Thank you in advance.
Would like to see this as a big feature (prepare pdf forms, with signature blocks, initials, date picker)
This is now possible. PDF24 has a special tool that, a PDF form editor, that enables users to edit PDF forms, add and remove form fields and to make PDFs fillable.

how can i apply a javascript to a form? I'd like to fill automatically the date. thanks!
Hello,
you can add your own JavaScript to every form field with the form editor, online at https://tools.pdf24.org/en/make-pdf-fillable and in the PDF24 Toolbox (Make PDF fillable, since version 11.30.0):
- Open the PDF and click the field.
- In the properties panel you find the script boxes Calculate Action, Format Action, Validate Action, Keystroke Action, Focus Action and Blur Action. For a button, choose JavaScript under Action.
- Enter your script there and save the PDF.
The scripts use the JavaScript of PDF forms (the Acrobat JavaScript API). There is no ready-made option for "today's date" yet. Thank you for the suggestion, we will add it to our list. In the online editor you can at least set Format to Date, then the field shows and accepts the date in the chosen format.
Please note: scripts are only run by PDF programs that support JavaScript and have it switched on, such as Adobe Acrobat Reader. Many browsers and apps ignore them.
