Fillable pdf forms should not be optimised

    Hi,

    This is more of a note here for anyone else who can’t work out why their fillable pdf forms lose the ability for the fields to be filled in when using Shortpixel.

    This has driven me crazy for a few hours until I discovered that I always use Shortpixel to optimise any pdf files. However in this case the pdf forms had fillable fields and as part of the optimisation the fields could no longer be filled.

    Simply make sure that the field to optimise pdf files is not selected in the advanced tab and it’ll work okay.

    Regards,
    Karen

    Hi Gerard,

    I’ve sent an email to [email protected] with the pdf fillable form that highlighted the issue.

    Karen,
    we fixed the bug noted by you.
    From now on, any fillable PDF file will be automatically skipped from optimization.

    Thank you for helping us solving this issue and also we apologize for the inconvenience caused to you!

    Best regards,
