adminKeymasterWhat do you mean by “attach the name”?
You may add Formidable’s User_ID field to the form, then…
. Map the userID field to the PDF in the Field Map LayoutOr, to use the user name in the PDF Filename,
. Add the User_ID’s field_ID in the shortcode with the filename=”xyz” parameter, like this filename=[123] where [123] is the User_ID field.
. And/or, add the User_ID’s field_ID to the “Name of Field Map (will be used as default filename):” field on the Field Map Designer.Let us know if you need further assistance as we remain at your service.

adminKeymasterYou’ll need to create a PDF form for the web form data to merge to. Do you have the PDF Form, or a Word Doc you would like the final document to look like? Here’s the demo video of how to create the field map layout and add the shortcode to the web form.
Complete this form if you need us to create the PDF or data merge.

March 28, 2018 at 9:47 am in reply to: some values of formfields do not display in generated PDF #18382adminKeymasterIf data in web form fields are filled after the form is submitted, then you’ll need to send the PDF as a link in the email by placing the PRO2PDF shortcode in the body of the email, or in a Formidable View.

adminKeymasterYour upgrade is complete, thank you for using PRO2PDF.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterThe issue with the upgrade form has been resolved, tested, and is now working correctly. Let us know if you have any further issues as we are able to manually upgrade your account.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterChange the shortcode’s dataset=xx parameter to dataset=[id] to download the current entry, as shown on the demo video at 3:25.
The new version is a totally new plugin and the beta version will be available to current PRO2PDF subscribers at no charge. Both plugins may be used at the same time.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterPDF’s are attached to Formidable Form’s email actions.
You can select/deselect which email actions the PDF is attached to from the “Attach file to Email notifications” field on the PRO2PDF field map layout.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterYou’ll need to purchase an upgrade. The renewal will default to 1 month rather than 1 year. You’ll receive a $2 credit on the renewal page ($13 for 1-year).

March 26, 2018 at 5:15 am in reply to: How to include user name with PDF document name in email? #18349adminKeymasterWe answered this question on the previous support post here. Let us know if the solution is does not work for your requirement.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterWe sent login credentials to the address on the account.
Regarding the user name question, add a Formidable User_ID to the web form and a hidden field with a default value of [login] or [first_name] or any other Formidable Default Value shortcode and map the fields to PDF fields.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterWe logged in and changed the dataset name to the 2nd mapped field [267](Name), however you can change it to any other field that you’d prefer by selecting the radio button on the first column of the Field Map Layout and then save the Field Map Layout.
If you need a different list with download links, we also created this Formidable View list of entries that includes a download link for each entry. You can edit the view to create a better list for your needs.
Regarding your question: “…isn’t there any way to make it a little bit easier to use?”
Yes, we agree, that’s why we created a replacement plugin that will be released next week called E2Pdf. E2Pdf is much easier to use. We have also created a conversion tool to convert PRO2PDF templates to E2Pdf templates. Visit the website here to sign up to receive the beta version once it’s released.We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterPRO2PDF does not work with Gravity Forms. Gravity Forms will be added to our newest plugin called E2Pdf. The beta version will be released soon, however, Gravity Forms may not be added for a couple of months.

adminKeymasterThe issue is likely being caused by the embedded font, not the plugin. Again, the plugin does not control or manage fonts.
Are you able to provide specifics for us to review, such as;
. Are there specific fields with the issue or are all fields having the issue?
. Is the issue related to specific words or characters?
. When the issue occurs on a specific merge, will the merge work when retried, or is the same entry always failing?
. Have you tried changing the embedded font?We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterWe have not experienced the stated issue in the past, it may be necessary to embed a different font as the plugin does not control fonts, fonts are controlled by the PDF. Nonetheless, we are willing to take a look at your PDF to see if we are able to provide any further suggestions. Attach the PDF to this form and we’ll take a look.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterYou may upgrade at anytime during the subscription term, you’ll only pay the difference in cost and you’ll receive an additional year of service.
Let us know if you have any further questions. We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterIn the PDF example you sent to us, the “E” checkbox’s value is set to ‘Yes’ rather than ‘E’, so it won’t map correctly… but all others are merging correctly. Here’s the web form and merge example.
If you need further assistance, we would need to see your web form and the actual PDF form you are using so we may be specific with the directions.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterFor checkbox fields, each PDF checkbox must have a different field name and each in the group must be mapped to the same Formidable checkbox field.
If you need more help, upload the PDF to this form so we may provide assistance specific to your form.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterHere’s a link to the demo PDF file that is included with the plugin.
Let us know where you are having issues and well provided specific instructions.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterYes, you can use any Adobe Acrobat compatible form editor, including the online service http://www.pdfescape.com.
Use this form if you would like a quote from us to create the PDF form and field map layout.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterYes, that’s exactly what the plugin was designed to do. Be sure to take a look at the demo video, and follow these steps to automatically generate the field map layout…
. Use copy/paste to rename the PDF fields to match the Formidable field names EXACTLY.
. Select the “Enable automated layout creation for new field maps” on the plugin’s SETTINGS tab.
. Now, when you create a new field map layout the plugin will correctly map all fields except ADDRESS, CHECKBOX, and REPEATABLE fields, which must be mapped manually.Let us know if you have any issues creating the field map layout or use this form to request a quote for us to create the field map layout for you.
