How to add an image field to a PDF

Adding an image to a PDF document can be useful to document visual data when filling in reports or forms. 

Simply take a photo, or upload an existing image from your gallery on your mobile advice.  

Using a PDF form filler with predefined image fields can make the process quick and easy while on the go.

Adobe Acrobat

Note: To use this tool, you need an Adobe Acrobat Pro license.

1. Open your PDF form in Adobe Acrobat, choose the Prepare Form mode and click Add an Image Field.

2. Drag it to the designated place in your form.

Jobsite Photo Documentation

Construction photo documentation is often used to manage the jobsite better, prove the location, show the defects, etc. In this case, it makes sense to use a document management tool so that to standardize the form appearance and flow they pass, from a new template to completed PDF document sent to customers.
