FAQ

Support: [email protected]

Why flatten?

So a filled form or markup can't be changed by accident and prints the same everywhere.

Can I get the fields back?

No, after flattening they are ordinary page content.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The file is processed right in your browser, on your device, and is not sent anywhere. It only reaches your Zotu cloud if you save it there yourself.
