    I’m using the premium plugin on farmingindia.in . I’ve a PDF form which has some auto calculating fields depending on other fields. Like, I’ve a batch_size field which is half of the unit_size field. I’ve set 10000 to default unit_size value and I’m sending the value of unit_size from formidable form. After submitting the form I’m getting the unit_size field correctly in PDF but the batch_size is not calculating as per the input, it is always showing as 5000 (which is half the default unit_size value)

    Please advise as soon as possible.

    No bug. The internal PDF calculations will not work with merged data. You will need to add hidden calculation fields to your Formidable form then merge the hidden field to your PDF.

    NOTE: You may also calculate and evaluate fields using the “Formidable: Dynamic” option found near the bottom of the “Webform Data Field ID” dropdown on the Field Map Layout.

    Hi, I’ve more than 20 pages of dynamic calculation using few hundreds of fields and that’s why I thick formidable: dynamic fields will not be helpful for me. As the plugin will not serve my purpose I’m going to uninstall it, could you please issue a refund?

    Refund has been issued.

    Our latest plugin. E2Pdf, will be adding the required PDF Javascript functionality sometime in the future, it’s on our road-map, but not yet on our calendar.

    If the workflow allowed for calculations to be made after the PDF is opened on the users computer, then a button could be added to run the necessary javascript ‘manually’. Any automated solution will be sometime in the future of E2Pdf.
