Transforming paper forms into digital documents is not always an easy task, especially when you also need to fill out that form before saving it, unless you have the proper tools for that.

One of the applications that can help you in this regard is A-PDF Filler, an easy-to-use utility that can not only scan papers, but which can also help you easily fill forms before saving them to the computer as PDF (Portable Document Format) files.

In addition to allowing you to scan you papers and save them to digital documents, this piece of software can also process images that are already saved on the computer. Thus, you can take advantage of the tool even if you do not have a scanner.

The program allows you to scan papers and load them in the background as images and then input text to any available fields. Next, you only need to export the newly created document to PDF, though you can also save the form separately, for later filling.

Courtesy of an integrated form editor included in this piece of software, you can visually define any field types, including text, image, and arrow, as well as their position, alignment and position.

The application makes it easy for you to deskew images when needed, to convert them to black and white, and even crop them. Moreover, it can be used to flip and rotate scanned images before processing them.

The utility can deliver fast performance when loading new documents and recognizing fields on them. Although it is influenced by the speed of the scanner, it does allow you to scan and fill a form within minutes, not to mention that it requires only a small amount of system resources for that.

In conclusion, A-PDF Filler is a snappy tool for scanning form papers, filling them and exporting them to PDFs. It includes a visual form editor and an intuitive interface and it also offers support for processing previously scanned images.
