Fill from Spreadsheet
Create a filled PDF for every row. · Runs on this computer
Turn one PDF form and one spreadsheet into a filled copy for every row.
Some scripts, such as Devanagari, can't be drawn by the built-in form font yet. Rows with those characters are skipped and listed so you can fill them in the editor.
Quick answer
To fill a PDF from Excel or CSV, open PDFella's Fill from Spreadsheet tool, upload the PDF form and choose your spreadsheet. Check which column fills each field, click Create, and download a ZIP with one filled PDF for every row. It's part of Pro.
