Workflow

How Bulk Fill works

Upload your PDF, add your CSV, map the fields, and export the batch.

Upload your PDF

Start with a fillable PDF form or another PDF you want to reuse.

Upload your CSV

Add the row data that will be used to generate each PDF.

Map fields and preview

Map PDF fields to CSV columns, then preview different rows on the PDF.

Export the batch

Export filled PDFs in the web app, then move into the API when needed.

Use cases

Common PDF form and batch workflows

Doqlo works especially well for fillable PDF forms and repeated document workflows driven by CSV data.

HR and onboarding forms

Fill employment, onboarding, and staff forms from CSV without re-entering the same fields one document at a time.

Internal forms

Reuse the same internal PDF forms whenever a new batch of employee, operations, or compliance records is ready.

Employer and compliance forms

Run repeated batches for fillable PDF forms used in hiring, verification, acknowledgements, and internal compliance workflows.

Invoices

Fill customer details, totals, invoice numbers, and optional QR or barcode fields from CSV for each billing run.

Certificates

Generate names, dates, IDs, codes, and other repeated fields from CSV on the same approved certificate PDF.

Packing slips

Turn order rows into packing slips with item details, barcodes, or QR fields without rebuilding the PDF each time.

Automation

Start in the web app. Move into the API later.

Set up the PDF workflow in the web app first. When you need automation or system integration, use the API.

Web app: set up the workflow visually

Upload your PDF and CSV.
Map PDF fields first, then add overlays where needed.
Preview a few rows before exporting the batch.

API: run the same workflow automatically

Reuse the same configured workflow later.
Trigger recurring PDF batches from your own system.
Add webhooks or no-code automation when needed.

FAQ

Questions before your first batch

What teams usually want to know before they start.

Do I need to rebuild my PDF as a template?

No. Start with a fillable PDF form you already have, or another PDF you want to reuse. Use native PDF form fields when available, and overlays where extra placement is needed.

What if my PDF already has fillable form fields?

That is a strong fit for Doqlo. Map those native PDF form fields to your CSV columns, preview a few rows, then export the batch.

What if my PDF is not fillable?

You can still use Doqlo. Add overlay fields where needed, map them to CSV columns, and export repeated PDFs from the same source document.

What is the difference between Bulk Fill and Sign?

Bulk Fill is for repeated PDF output from CSV. Sign is the lighter always-free utility for one-off signatures, text, dates, and simple overlay edits on a single PDF.

Do I need the API to get started?

No. Start in the web app: upload your PDF, add your CSV, map the fields, preview rows, and export the batch. Use the API later when you need automation or system integration.

Can I preview rows before exporting the full batch?

Yes. Browse representative rows on the PDF first, then export the full batch when the output looks right.

What kinds of PDFs fit Doqlo best?

Doqlo works especially well for fillable PDF forms, HR and onboarding forms, internal forms, invoices, certificates, packing slips, and other repeated PDF workflows driven by CSV data.

Is Doqlo a full PDF editor?

No. Doqlo is built for repeatable PDF fill workflows and lightweight one-off edits, not full document authoring from scratch.
