You can use a bookmark to flatten the form fields.

If you flatted the firm as a first step, then there is no button left to flatten. One would have to redact the button image. But if one hides the button first the form can be flattened without a button image. The visibility of the button has no effect on the running of the script within the button.

You realize that flattening only works in Acrobat Pro/Standard?
