How to add checkboxes to PDFs with SimplePDF

Benjamin André-Micolon

Checkboxes are essential for agreements, checklists, consent forms, and any document where you need to mark a selection. SimplePDF lets you add them to any PDF in just a few clicks.

1. Navigate to the PDF editor over here
2. Open the document from your device
3. Select the checkbox tool
4. Click anywhere on the document to add the checkbox field
5. Click on the checkbox once or twice to get two different variations
6. Click the Download button

SimplePDF offers two checkbox styles: a checkmark and a cross. Click the checkbox once to toggle to a checkmark, and click again to switch to a cross. This gives you flexibility depending on whether you are marking items as complete, confirming agreement, or indicating a selection on a form.

You can place as many checkboxes as you need across the document, making it easy to fill out multi-item checklists or forms with several yes/no questions.

That's it! Your checkboxes have been added and the document is saved to your device.
