## Why contractors fill out a PDF form

A contractor merges a bid, permit and change order into one project file, signs a document from their phone on site, and compresses a photo-heavy progress report to email the client.

**Built for bids.** Whether it's bids, permits, change orders, Arthize's fill pdf form keeps the work inside your private workspace. Bids and client contracts are commercially sensitive; a private workspace keeps them secure.

## What matters when you fill out a PDF form

You can type into interactive fields and tick checkboxes directly.

Completed forms can be flattened so values are locked.

No printing or scanning is required.
