Why filled forms get flattened

Unflattened, your answers live in editable fields — the recipient (or their software) can change them, and some printers and viewers render fields empty. Flattening removes both risks: what you submitted is what exists.

The submission sequence

Fill completely, sign if required, then flatten last — everything present at flattening gets locked in. Check your answers first; flattened means final. Files are processed temporarily and deleted automatically — there is no general cloud storage.
