About this tool
Designed for the moment you need a document changed quickly and privately. List every AcroForm field with name, type, current value and read-only state — parsed locally in your browser. Processing runs locally in your browser's memory — the document is never transmitted, and closing the tab clears it completely. The workflow is deliberately short: load the file, choose the options on the page, run the operation, and save the result. Every choice is applied before the file is written, so re-running with different settings takes seconds. Practical limits apply (see the on-page limits); it pairs well with the related tools linked beside this page when one step is not the whole job. Key facts — Processing: runs entirely in your browser, client-side; Access: free with no account required; File limits: see the on-page limits; Privacy: the file never leaves the device.

FAQ
Will my file be uploaded?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser — your file is never uploaded, and closing the page clears it immediately.
Are there any limits?
Supports AcroForm only; display capabilities for XFA forms are limited.
How accurate is the field inspection?
The tool parses AcroForm field dictionaries directly, reporting field names, types, current values, and read-only states as declared; display capabilities for XFA forms are limited.
Can I process multiple files in bulk?
A single tool page handles one task at a time; for bulk work use the Batch Processing workflow and add this tool as a step to run a whole set at once.
Will the original file be modified, and how are results presented?
The inspection tool does not modify your original file; the field inventory is presented as a read-only table for review before filling or automation.
