I do not have a enough words of gratitude to express my thanks to you. I had been going round and round trying to figure out how the updated features worked in PDFescape. I even reached out to support twice. But, since their support is via email only (at least with the free version) I could not wait. Then I found you. Girl, you saved me! Thank you for sharing this video.
Thank you for posting this video on the updated version of PDF Escape. I had been watching a lot of other tutorials and they all had different options as they were using older versions. It certainly looks like this update is not as good as the earlier versions as they have taken away of lot of options. It would be great to be able to change the size of the text as they are using a very small size as default.
Thank you for this information. I have created a journal and I ran into so many gliches on how to do this. I can't wait to thank you again, once my journal produces income!
Thank you very much, after spending my Memorial Weekend trying different options this is the right and easy option to transform a PDF made in canvas into a fillable pdf... no tricky or catchy UA-cam titles.. it really worth the video. thanks again!
Hi! Thank you for your video! - How does the text box work for lined pages on the PDF? Do you recommend not having lined pages on the pdf? Just do a text box instead? Thanks!
Thank you so much for this! I have not used PDF Escape in a few years. You answered a few of my questions. I feel like they went backward by taking away the feature to resize and change the fonts. When I tried to do this on my own, it definitely was not intuitive.
A client sent me a pdf Job Application form that he would like as a fillable form on his website. I'll be following your guide to see how it works. Thanks for this presentation.
Hi Creatives, I hope this video answered all your questions about the new PDF escape update. I am curious about what kind of forms/workbooks/documents you're creating with it. Let me know below! ☺
This was SO helpful!!!!! Thank you for talking slow enough to understand and going through the process slowly step by step. Just wondering how to have the filled out document sent back completed to me
GOLD;) LOVE WAS SUPER HELPFUL! I AM MAKING DIGITAL JOURNALS FOR MY TRAINING PROGRAM. Could not have done it without you...Next question: How do we duplicate a page? Does anyone know? CHATGBT says to right-click. That doesn't not work.
This is so helpful! Thanks! Planning to make several of my resources for clients to be fillable. If it is a fillable PDF, it can still be printed if they want to print it right?
I just recently found PDF escape. I found your channel and decided to see if you had any information on how to make the boxes transparent. I viewed some older videos with the previous version and thought - how do I get THAT version!! The older version was so much more intuitive and had WAY more functionality and designability. they ruined it with the update in my opinion. It is a nice free option, but I was hoping to have a transparent text box, so the document could be printed with lines for manual filling. Nothing works - Acrobat has javascript that handles my issue, but it isn't functional across platforms - or other pdf readers, so my MAC friends have to download Adobe to utilize the manual/digital option. So sad! Thank you for sharing your experiences... I love your Canva work! Blessings!
This is great info, but is there a way to remove the outline/border around the text box? I'm printing certificates and don't want to see a box around my text.
Incase you still don’t know yet how to do this - Click on edit, then select the text box and then the spanner tool icon in the toolbar, then deselect the checkbox for visible, click ok and save your document before downloading
the areas that I defined as a checkbox turned yellow as I was defining the area, but this yellow color transfered onto the final PDF - when you are doing this same thing in your video, the sections you had as light purple saved as the same color after downloading, is there something I am missing? thank you this is a very helpful video!
I love all your tutorials, thank you! Quick question, on our form, we need the signers to upload certain docs from their computer to give to us. When signers click "UPLOAD HERE" there should be a box that shows FILE from Desktop etc. How to create that on the form please? I have not seen anyone give this tutorial in youtube :--(((
I have a question! Please do you know if there's anyway to keep your graphics? I'm making journal entry pages and would like for the graphics to show under the writing as it looks like an old notebook page. I tried unchecking the 'visible' box which I thought did the trick as the box vanished but when I downloaded, the cursor appeared but my writing did not grrrrr.... I wonder if they are trying to make this a feature but haven't sorted it out yet?
I've not been able to add a fillable signature in the update (took ages to work it out in the old version too!) - do you have any tips on how to add a signature box for people to sign forms online once exported? Thanks for all your videos, they're always so helpful :)
Thank you! Is there any option to restrict the amount of words used in the text boxes, other than the max of 100 letters? I want 100 words instead, but that doesn't seem possible.
Thank you for sharing! it drove me crazy after as couldnt find actual tutorial with updates. But I have one problem. After saving the pdf when filling the text field I have huge letter size of the whole page, not default as said in tutorial? Any tip? I can press enter and write another line but still cansee max 4 letter on whole page. Thx in advance :)
The fillable forms work, but when I downloaded my workbook, all my original box colors changed to a light blue/pastel purple color. Is there a way to get my original colors back?
Thanks for the update but the mutli-line is not reflecting. It reflect at first but later change to single line. What I can do? also, how can I delete it?
How do you make the fillable text box invisible without the color? With the new updates can you do this with the free version or is it now on the paid version.
I created a form, everything went great however when i save the PDF to my desktop I notice that once i open it back up it is still editable how to I save it as a regular PDF so the text inserted is not editable by others.
Created the form following your instructions. I have actually used the old version and this new version once before following your instructions. This time (Feb 9th) I am using the free online version. I made my text boxes. Made them paragraphs. Saved it to my computer. Opened it back up. When I try to type on it the words do not show up. Almost like they are in white "ink" instead of black. Is there a setting I am missing?
I think they updated it again. I used this tutorial the other day and it was a lifesaver! However, now some of the options aren't showing; ex. I can't select 'multiple lines' and it won't allow me to uncheck boxes. Any advice?
I'm using this to get longer answers. It says limit 100. I'm really hoping that is 100 words and not characters, but I actually need longer than 100 words. Some of the responses might be longer. Does anyone know about that?
I am still frustrated. I can Put in the Box and that's it. It' not yellow, in edit nothing happens, If I click Double it says: " Matrix ist Not invertible" . Where ist the mistake?? 😢

I'm so glad it was helpful!!! 🫶🏻
Once you click the "edit pen" and double click the text box you can then choose the font size and type!! This video was sooooo helpful!

THANK YOUUUUUUUU!! I couldn't work out what the heck had happened with a single line of long text in the paragraph! Appreciate it. :)
Thank you very much for this. You literally helped me gain hours that I lost trying other platforms today. God bless you.

Thx so much, you helped me a lot
Still using this video! Thank you so much :)
Do you know if you can you still duplicate text boxes or do you need to do them all individually?
Thank you so much for this - I was getting frustrated using this updated version.
I'm so glad you posted this video, because I would've been so lost after watching the first video, going into PDF Escape!
i'm so glad it helped! ☺
You saved my freebie!! Thank you so much for this updated tutorial

Hey. Thank you. I see you have a scroll bar on the right side. How did you do it?
@@miguelgarciajunior2582 If you create a paragraph form. It'll automatically scroll if you keep typing past the box size
This was SO helpful!!!!!
Thank you for talking slow enough to understand and going through the process slowly step by step. Just wondering how to have the filled out document sent back completed to me
after i made the pdf editable, the text been typed became very smal
so little i could barely see anything
Thanks you, it's very easy

Thank you! Super helpful! Does anyone know how to add esignatures for free?

You're so very welcome!

This is so helpful! Thanks! Planning to make several of my resources for clients to be fillable. If it is a fillable PDF, it can still be printed if they want to print it right?
Is there a copy paste function? So instead of doing all the checkboxes 1 by 1 you could just copy and paste them?
amazing tutorial!! can it be filled using mobiles/tablets?
I love this video but how comes the boxes changed colour is there anyway for it to go back to the original colour
Great Sister !!!!!!!!!
There is one thing missing .... There should be a Date field by selection instead of writing..
hey thank you so much this was super helpful, ....can we also copy paste the text areas so that we don't have to draw them each time?
Thank you so much for the video! It's really hard to make the box in pdf escape align with the box on the page, do you have any tips on that? Thanks!
Thanks ✨✨
Thank you so much! I thought they had deleted the feature altogether~ cultivating patience as I use it lol
🧘🏻♀️
Perfect! Thanks for the video. Do you create pdfs as a service?
No I do not unless it’s part of a bigger branding project !

Hi! Thank you very much for your video! I have a question, do you know if I can remove that yellow color? thank you
unfortunately not with PDF escape
@@MadeonSundays thank you for your answer
this worked well for me, however the cross or checks are super tiny - is there a way to make them larger?

I wouldn't recommend using PDF escape for that purpose. Perhaps look into using a Google form or Typeform :)
hello, how to make the font bigger? I choose the text refill.
Thank you so much for this, the update is great, but with many glitches. My editable fields change my colour to white, is there a way around this?

Unfortunately you can’t with the free version. I’m not sure about the paid version
What is the name of the program, where you can edit PDF, after saving from PDF escape ?
I don't see the tool to change the font size. Do I need the paid version of PDF escape to get the tool?
Unfortunately, you can't change the size of the font in the new verson
can you remove the text box borders?
I created a form, everything went great however when i save the PDF to my desktop I notice that once i open it back up it is still editable how to I save it as a regular PDF so the text inserted is not editable by others.
Hello! Is there a way we can eliminate the boxes when printed?
You could consider writing two versions of the PDF. One for print with the interactive boxes!
Hi, how do we center the text alignment? I know it has that feature but when I switch back to the hand symbol, it goes back to left align

Maybe try restarting your computer too.
