    Additionally, I would like to suggest a few improvements to the platform. It would be very helpful if the program allowed users to build forms section by section, rather than requiring an entire PDF upload that cannot be edited without starting over. Furthermore, having the ability to manually input text followed by specific fields—such as name and date—directly within the tool would be much more efficient than relying solely on a PDF upload.

    Hi Laurie,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, when editing the Original PDF of the Smart PDF Forms, you'll have to reupload an edited version of the source PDF Document. While the feature you're looking for isn't available at Jotform right now, we've gone ahead and escalated your request to our developers.

    Exactly when or if it's developed depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users also request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding, we appreciate it.
