What PDF Flattening Does

This tool processes your PDF by rebuilding its internal structure. This action effectively "flattens" elements such as annotations, comments, form field appearances, and transparent layers, turning them into static content on the page.

The result is a simpler, non-editable PDF, which can be useful for archival purposes or sharing a final version of a document.
