Nancy, I want to personally thank you for sharing this tutorial because I was just searching high and low trying to find a free version to create a fillable field pdf file for a writer's workshop to get people to sign a permission document. Your content is so informative and thanks for not charging an arm and a leg to teach the things that you know! I so appreciate you and what you share with us! I won't charge money for this but I really needed to know how to do this. Adobe and others out there charge so much and it is very complicated to learn how to do this. You made if simple and right to the point. Thanks again. God bless you.

Hi! You are definitely becoming a go-to resource for me! One question- does PDFescape offer different colors? I can’t find the option.
Hi! I'm glad to be a helpful resource for you!
Regarding PDFescape, it does offer different colors for text and annotations. To change colors:
1. Open Your Document: Upload or open your PDF in PDFescape.
2. Select the Tool: Choose the tool you want to use (e.g., text, shapes, or highlights).
3. Adjust Color: Look for the color options in the toolbar. For text, after selecting the Text tool, you should see a color option. For annotations like highlights or shapes, you’ll find color settings in the respective tool’s options.
If you’re having trouble finding the color options, it might help to ensure you’re using the latest version of PDFescape or try refreshing your browser. If color options are still not visible, consider checking their help resources or contacting their support for more specific guidance.
Hi, Nancy. Thank you so much for this. This is what I was looking for. Loved your tutorial, it's so easy.
Aww thank you so much!
❤️❤️❤️
Another valuable video Nancy! It is really simple to use PDF escape and it can make a huge difference to your final product💕
Yes, it's so SIMPLE to use and the fact you can turn your PDF into a digital file is pretty cool.
Thank you so much!
When you made it on PDF escape, did you give your buyers a link to the pdf or an actual pdf that you put into Etsy? I’m not sure how to list a fillable pdf product.
Thank you for this video. Simple and easy to follow. 😁👍🏻
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.
Super valuable Nancy! Thank you!
You’re so welcome! ❤️❤️❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for sharing! I actually already use PDFEscape and I really liked it. The only issue I have is that usually people use mobiles more than computers and they started to ask me how they could edit the PDF on their cellphones, but I found a solution to open it and edit in iPhone, but not for android. So some of my forms cannot be used for those who have android only. I was wondering if you know a solution to use the fillable forms in androids?
Hi Elis, No, I have never really had any issues with people filling them out. Let me do a bit of research if I come up with anything I will reply back.
Thanks again for commeting.
@@NancyBadillo Thanks a lot, Nancy! I really appreciate it!
Thank you so much, I make digital budget sheets, and I’m currently making a digital planner/budget planner, and I really want to make them all so they can type in it instead of just having to write while using it. I’m so glad I came across this video.
Do you know if this will work for pdf files that have multiple pages?
Hello! I'm glad to hear that you found the video helpful for creating digital budget sheets and planners.
To answer your question, yes, you can create a PDF file with multiple pages that can be typed into. There are various software programs that allow you to create editable PDFs, such as Adobe Acrobat, Nitro PDF, and Foxit PhantomPDF. These programs offer features that let you add text fields, check boxes, radio buttons, and other interactive elements to your PDF document.
Alternatively, if you're using a program like Microsoft Word or Google Docs to create your budget sheets and planners, you can save them as a PDF file and include editable form fields that allow users to type directly into the PDF.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
Thank you we are learning new things
Hi Ganji! You're so welcome.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you, Nancy!
It’s my pleasure!
I was wondering how to do this, might be something to look into. Thanks, Nancy.
Thank you for this video, I learned new things on each of your post, Thank you so much ❤
great link thank you
You're so welcome!
I am so glad you enjoyed the video.
Thank you for this. it's very helpful. :)
You’re so welcome! Thank you for watching.
First of all this is an amazing video as usual 👌🏻🌹 , second i have two questions if you may , the first one is : Do i need a business PayPal account to start on Etsy or it can be a personal one? The second question is : how do you film you videos , this little labtop in the corner how do you make it? And Finally you are my best youtuber ever Nancy 💗 , my sister her name is Nancy too🙈😍🤗❤️
Hi Dodda! Thank you for all the support, I really appreciate it.
Here are the answer to your questions #1 You can use a reg PayPal account #2 I use a software called Camtasia and they have the feature of adding my recording of me in the bottom right corner. Thank you so much for the amazing feedback. Your sister has a beautiful name, :)
@@NancyBadillo love you Nancy , you deserve all love and support 🙏🏻🌹💗
Awesome video !! Thank you :)
Thank you so much!!
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you
You're so welcome!
Thanks for watching.
Thank you, the was very informative. I have a question. If I have a 100 page planner do I get this done on every page.
You’re so welcome! Yes, you would add it to any page you want to amen fillable.
This is a great tutorial, Nancy!, thanks a ton! I have a question though. If we were to send the same pdf as printable, would customers see gray areas (form fields to type in) too? Because while writing on it, it may be a bit incovenient if the print is gray/dark of those spaces.
Hi there! If the customer prints the files then the gray boxes will not appear. You can always test out a copy at home to double check.
@@NancyBadillo yes that makes sense, thanks and happy new year ! 🤍
Great, thank you! Does Etsy, send the link to the editable file, or does the seller need to email it through?
You're so welcome! Yes, Etsy sends the link but you need to add it as an attachment.
Thx soooo much for this! I am new to all this and was wondering how the customer sees the file and can print it from Etsy... 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Glad it was helpful! You will add the file to your Etsy listing where customer can download automatically. They can print with their printer at home or professional printing.
Thank you for the information! One quick question: when your customer goes to use the form, do they have to fill it out on pdfescape or can they use Adobe programs? I'm assuming Adobe would work, but I wanted to double-check. Thanks!
Hi, they don’t need either. They can download and use without any extra apps.
🙌
This is fantastic, thank you! Quick question about PDF Escape--does it work on any PDF? Thanks so much!!
Hey Kelly! Yes, it works only for PDF it doesn't what program you used.
Hi, can you please tell me what in what size did save the planner before you make it fillable? Thank you!
Sure, it was US Letter Size.
Hi Nancy, thank you so much for this tutorial, just wanted to ask, If the original pdf has been formatted on pdf escape to be fillable, if the person then duplicates the page on their goodnotes file, will the duplicate page also be fillable?
Hey Gabriella! That's an awesome question. I don't use Goodnotes so not sure. I would think if they duplicate the page for GN it will stop working.
Hi Nancy, they changed the platform. How do we get the text paragraph box now? I’m trying to just enlarge the text box but it’s not allowing me to make it big enough???
I love these how to videos. As always great video Nancy. 💜
When providing this PDF to the customer do we have to attach 2 different files? This fillable one and a printable? Or do we just provide this one and they can print this one?
Hi! Just provide one and they can do both use it digitally and print it.
🙌🙌🙌
Thank you so much
You’re so welcome!!
❤️❤️❤️
Hi Nancy, great video. I appreciate how informative it is. I am selling printable planners on etsy, but I am wondering if I sell this version would I have to make all set of daily pages for the month fillable? Or just one daily page and they would be able to save and open that same one as a new page for each day?
Great question - you would just do the one page since they use unlimited times.
@@NancyBadillo Great! Makes sense lol Thank you. I'll be giving it a try🙂
Thank you for this! Just wondering why you do this instead of using Canva to make fillable forms?
I don’t believe you can make fillable forms with Canva. Is this a new feature? What is it called? Thank you!!
Besides Etsy, how do I sell a fillable form on other platforms, in particular like Amazon - how does the file get downloaded properly for it utilize the fill function?
When it comes to selling fillable forms on platforms like Amazon, there are a few considerations for ensuring the file is downloaded properly and can be utilized with the fill function.
1. File Format: Choose a file format that supports fillable form functionality, such as PDF or DOCX. PDF is widely compatible and maintains the formatting across different devices and operating systems.
2. Instructions: Clearly provide instructions in the product description or packaging on how to download, open, and use the fillable form. You can include step-by-step instructions or even create a tutorial video to make it easier for customers.
3. Platform-specific Guidelines: Familiarize yourself with the platform's guidelines and requirements for selling digital products. Each platform may have its own specifications, including file size limits, accepted formats, and delivery methods. Adhering to these guidelines ensures a smooth experience for customers.
4. Testing and Quality Assurance: Before listing the product for sale, thoroughly test the fillable form on various devices and software applications to ensure compatibility and functionality. This way, you can identify and address any issues in advance, providing a reliable product to your customers.
5. Customer Support: Be prepared to offer customer support and assistance in case customers face any difficulties while using the fillable form. Promptly respond to inquiries and provide clear instructions or troubleshooting steps to ensure customer satisfaction.
Remember, it's always a good idea to consult the specific guidelines and resources provided by the platform you plan to sell on, such as Amazon's Seller Central or Seller Forums, to get detailed information on selling digital products and ensuring a smooth download and usage experience for your customers.
Thank you for this! What if the file is more than 10 MB?
What do you mean?
Hi Nancy, I was wondering if I’m already going to sell a digital Planner version, that can be used on GoodNotes etc, of my printables would it make sense for me to offer it this way too?
Hi! Yes, I would offer this as another alternative way to use the file. This way you add more value to your products.
Great question.
Thank you so much for this Nancy! I am having trouble with the quality of the PDF's from the site though. They are very blurry and fuzzy. Any suggestions?
Oh no! When you uploaded the original file was it at 300 dpi?
@@NancyBadillo I'm not sure how to check? It was created with Canva. Also the fillable lines show up in my PDF's too with colored cards and such, will it go away once printed?
@@4christactress2004 if you created it with Canva and save it as a PDF then it should be automatically 300 dpi. I would need to see what you’re talking about. I want to say yes but not sure. Have you tried test printing?
Hy Nancy.i opened an Etsy store but after i save it on PDF,and i save the link,when i want to open to be able to attach it in Etsy not working.what i can do wrong?
I think is someting changed,i saw one of Ur video,when u sau about something like Etsy changed an option,about u can send the link after the buyer payed.i dont know exactly If i say correctly now.But here at this point i have a problem.
Thanks for all Ur videos,Nancy,is really helpful all.
Hi there! I'm sorry you're having issues uploading the PDF file to Etsy. Does it give you any error message?
@@NancyBadillo i want to rewatch that tutorial where u explain etsy made changes for upload the link what buyers get after purchase,but i not find it.
So,i should start to exoplain where i not really understand where i not get at all what i have to do.Once u make the digital product,mocups ,and save that as pdf,png,u also have that link too.The point is if i want to open it as pdf dont allow me.
what step i make wrong?
thank u for ur help
So, to be able to do the filable forms there is a cost I don't think you mentioned that.
Hi there! Thanks for the question. At the time of this video it was free. What is the cost now?
Please help...complete new beginner but i have learned so much from your channel!!! How do we provide customers with the link to our designs via Canva into Etsy?? I cannot open my shop or produce designs through a print on demand because of this one issue!!
You would create a PDF file that has the link for the template. This is what you attached to Etsy.
❤️❤️❤️
Is there a way to track how many ppl download your document if you’re not capturing email or charging? I want to gage the interest?
What tool are you using for people to download for free?
@@NancyBadillo I’m not sure. I was thinking gumroad maybe
Hello, how to use fillable pdf on mobile? I did tried all these however, I couldnt open it on my mobile. On laptop, it is fillable but on my mobile it is just a pdf.
Hi there! Fillable PDFs can sometimes be a bit tricky to use on mobile devices, especially if you don't have a PDF reader or editor installed. You may want to try downloading a PDF reader app on your mobile device that supports fillable forms, such as Adobe Acrobat Reader or Foxit PDF Reader. Once you have the app installed, you should be able to open the fillable PDF and fill in the form fields on your mobile device.
If you're still having trouble, it's possible that the fillable PDF wasn't designed to be used on mobile devices. In that case, you may need to access it on a desktop or laptop computer to fill in the form fields. Also, keep in mind that the experience of filling out fillable PDFs on mobile devices can vary depending on the device and app you're using, as well as the specific PDF file you're trying to fill out.
Is there a way the green boxes don't show on download? or maybe we can change their color somehow?
Certainly! When creating a fillable PDF, the green boxes represent form fields that users can interact with to enter their information. If you don't want these green boxes to be visible when the PDF is downloaded or printed, there are a couple of options you can consider:
Changing the box color: Most PDF editing software allows you to customize the appearance of form fields, including their color. You can choose a color that blends well with the overall design of your PDF or make it transparent. This way, the boxes will still be functional, but they won't be prominently visible.
Hiding the form field borders: Another option is to remove the borders of the form fields entirely. This can be done by adjusting the form field properties in your PDF editing software. By removing the borders, the form fields will be invisible, and users can still click on the designated areas to enter their information.
Remember to test the modified PDF to ensure that the form fields remain interactive and accessible even if they are not visible. This will ensure a smooth user experience for anyone filling out the form.
@@NancyBadillo Makes sense, thank you! Does PDFEscape allow changing the box color? because I couldn't find this option
Hey Nancy I followed all the steps but when I go to fill it out the boxes stay behind.
Hi Katelyn,
I’m sure you’re having issues. What do you mean by the boxes stay behind?
@@NancyBadillo I rewatched the video and I’m now seeing how the faint shadow is left behind. I guess I was thinking when they edited it it would go back to plain white.
Nancy , I tried to buy your Etsy course but there is something wrong , i doesn't work , the button of (buy) doesn't work with me , i don't know why😢
Hi Dodda! I’m sorry for the inconvenience. Please email me at info@nancybadillo.com and I will do my best to help! ❤️
this does not work as you say and now the website is different. What do you use now please?
Hi there! What is exactly happening so I can better assist?
Are clients directed back to Canva with the link?
No, because this is not an editable file from Canva. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you. Do you need the paying Canva version.
No, you can use the Canva free version.
🙌🙌🙌
Are customers then left with blue boxes on the PDF after they've filled it out?
Hey Tessa! Yes that’s correct. If they print it out the boxes go away.
First 🤙🤙🤙🤙
Easy tutorials from best person
Hi Azran! Thank you for watching. I really appreciate it.
❤️❤️❤️
I made a business card on canva and I would like to make it editable would this work for something like that
Hi Julie! I would stick with creating editable business cards using Canva. The site I talk about in this video is more for PDF that you're creating fillable boxes, checkmarks, etc. I hope this helps!
@@NancyBadillo thanks
