Today I was reading this article from the SharePointEurope.com site about PDF forms. Most likely, as a SharePoint admin you’re going to want to use a SharePoint List to capture input from a form. The form will probably be either the default form created for you when you created the list, or that very form after you’ve modified it, or a form you made using a third-party product like Nintex. Sound about right?
But what if your users insist (as they sometimes do) on having a PDF form on SharePoint? What then? Do they download it, fill it out, and then upload it to a forms library? The article I referred to above discusses (ok, advertises) a third-party product that installs onto your SharePoint Online tenant or on-premises server which resolves this problem.
The PDF Editor for SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams from Muhimbi promises to deliver the following features:
- Fill PDF forms “without having to leave SharePoint”
- Edit text like in a Word doc
- Annotate content
- Redact text
- Add electronic signatures
- Add digital signatures
- And some other features that I haven’t listed here…
I have no idea how much it costs but you can get a quote by visiting this page.
Note: I do not endorse this product, I don’t get any money (or anything else from them), and I haven’t tried it. I’m just letting you know about it since it looks promising. You’re on your own. 🙂
