Fill PDF forms from Excel
Export your Excel sheet to CSV, upload a PDF template, map columns to fields once, then generate one completed PDF per spreadsheet row.
Direct answer
PDF Batch is a browser tool for batch-filling PDF forms from Excel data. You do not need Adobe Acrobat. Map each PDF field to an Excel column (via CSV), preview any row, then download a ZIP of filled PDFs.
Working flow
- Save or export the Excel sheet as CSV (UTF-8 when possible).
- Upload the PDF form and the CSV on the PDF Batch tool.
- Confirm auto-mapped fields; fix any remaining mappings manually.
- Preview a few rows, then generate the batch and download the ZIP.
Supported inputs and limits
- PDF: AcroForm fillable fields or printed writing areas (underscores, dotted lines, rules).
- Spreadsheet: CSV exported from Excel or Google Sheets.
- Free preview: 3 PDFs per batch in the browser.
- Paid batches: up to 250 PDFs per run.

Common questions
- Does PDF Batch open Excel files directly?
- Upload a CSV export from Excel (File → Save As → CSV, or Download → CSV). That keeps column mapping reliable across Excel versions.
- How many certificates or forms can I generate from one spreadsheet?
- Each batch supports up to 250 rows. Split larger workbooks into multiple CSVs if needed.
- Do free-preview files leave my computer?
- No. Free preview processing stays in your browser. Paid accounts optionally sync the template, CSV, mappings, and ZIP archives for re-download during the paid period.
