What is a .PFF file?

The file extension .PFF stands for Formatta Portable Form File. This type of file is an electronic form created using Formatta software. It includes a formatted and published electronic form that users can fill out with the help of a program called Formatta Filler. These files are designed to distribute forms that can be checked for accuracy as you type in them. Additionally, for added security, these forms can be encrypted.

To work with .PFF files, you can use two main programs: Access Formatta Filler and Access Formatta Designer. Access Formatta Filler is primarily used for filling out and managing the forms, while Access Formatta Designer is used to create and design these forms.

.PFF files are particularly useful in business environments as they help streamline various business process workflows. They enable users to fill out forms, save their progress, route forms to the appropriate recipients, print out forms, and even email them directly from the program. These files can also include attachments, making them versatile tools for handling comprehensive electronic documents.

In terms of functionality, .PFF files are quite similar to .PDF files. However, a key feature of Formatta software is its ability to import PDF files and convert them into editable and manageable PFF forms. This feature is particularly useful for businesses that need to transition from static PDF documents to more dynamic and interactive PFF forms.
