fyllyoForms that do their own maths
Many forms work out totals, dates and formats themselves. In Fyllyo they do it as you type, like in Acrobat. In Preview, they often don’t.
Fill out a PDF form on your Mac. Free, and it all works.
Open the form, click a field and type. Checkboxes, dropdowns and dates work, totals add themselves up, and the government XFA forms that Preview can’t open fill in too. Sign it and save. No account, no watermark, and nothing is uploaded.

Why Fyllyo
“Please wait…” forms open
Government forms built with XFA show a “Please wait…” page in Preview and in browsers. Fyllyo opens them, so you can fill them in, print them and save them.
Got the documents? Let Fyllyo fill it
Filling the same form for client after client? Add their documents and Fyllyo Paid fills the form for you, on your Mac, with every answer linked to where it came from.
Questions
How do I fill out a PDF form on a Mac?
Open it in Fyllyo, click the first field and type, and press Tab to move to the next one. Tick the boxes, sign, and save. It’s free, with no account.
Can I fill out a PDF form in Preview?
Yes, for simple forms. Preview often skips the form’s own calculations and formatting, and it can’t open XFA forms, which show “Please wait…”. Fyllyo handles both, for free.
Why can’t I type in my PDF form?
Either the PDF has no form fields, or it’s an XFA form your app can’t show. Fyllyo opens XFA forms. For a PDF with no fields, add your answers as text comments, then print or save it.
Can AI fill out a PDF form for me?
Yes. Fyllyo Paid reads your documents (PDFs, scans, photos, Word files and notes) and fills the form on your Mac. Anything it isn’t sure of is left blank with the reason. It’s $99 once.
Is my form uploaded?
No. Fyllyo fills forms on your Mac, and your files are never sent anywhere.
