- Boolean token normalization covers yes/no, true/false, 1/0, and variants.
Frequently asked questions
Can DullyPDF auto-fill checkboxes in PDF forms?
Yes. DullyPDF supports rule-based checkbox automation with yes/no, presence, enum, and list modes.
How does checkbox group mapping work?
Each checkbox has a groupKey and optionKey. Map the group to a data column, and DullyPDF selects the correct option based on the cell value and rule type.
Does this work for forms with dozens of checkboxes?
Yes. Checkbox-heavy forms like medical intake and benefits enrollment are common use cases for rule-based automation.
