FYI – We have added dynamic filename functionality to the Field Map Layout. You may now enter Formidable field shortcodes as well as static text into the “PDF file name in e-mails:” text box located just below the “Attach file to Email notifications” option on each field map layout.
Update your plugin to acquire the functionality. We remain at your service.

There is not currently a way to dynamically change the emailed filename. We will look at this one more time to see if a solution is possible and get back to you.

To correct, we mapped the first PDF Checkbox (Patient Is) and the first PDF Radio Button (Sex) and corrected the field map layout as follows…
. Changed PDF Checkbox Export Values to match Formidable Form checkbox values.
. Changed PDF Radio Button Choices to match Formidable Form radio button values.
. Changed the names of ALL the PDF Radio Button Field options in the group to the same name.
. Mapped the one PDF Radio Button Group Name to the Formidable Radio Button field.Now, all works as expected.

This sounds like an issue for the outstanding support team at Formidable Forms. Or, try switching to a SMTP plugin to see if that fixes the issue.

While the plugin will enter Formidable Form Dropdown selection into a PDF Dropdown field, we did not design it to populate PDF Dropdown Lists with non-selected data. This is not a feature that has been requested in the past, however, we can take a look at adding the feature if needed. Are you leaving the PDF forms editable and need the un-selected data from Formidable when the user (or admin) downloads the PDF?
There are unfinished, unused, abandoned, or non-working field map layout(s) for the same form that also have email attachment checked. Go through all other field map layouts for the same form and uncheck the email attachment option.
Or better yet, delete all unused field map layouts by selecting the layout – scroll to the bottom of the layout and click “Delete Entire Field Map”.
Then, let us know if the issue is resolved. We remain at your service.
Use the “Flatten” option found on the field map layout for the PRO version, or the shortcode parameter found on the shortcode parameter page.

Hummm… the following replied was sent to your email address on April 1st…

Hi! The issue was caused by the size of the PDF Form being over 16GB! Way too big for the plugin to process. A one page PDF should be no more than 650kb, even with a full size high-def image.
We’ve optimized and re-uploaded your PDF Form to the plugin and now all works as expected. You’ll notice the PDF fields now have a dropdown list on the Field Map Layout, as they should. In the future, if you don’t see a dropdown list of field names then the PDF was not recognized.
EXAMPLE MERGE: http://laser-world-paris.fr/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=wpfx_generate&form=5jkdf&layout=12&dataset=3&format=pdf&inline=1&key=f2c205e04ad947716ac01df404a5aa4aNOTE: My French is not so good, so you will need to set the correct PDF fields to match your Formidable fields on the field map layout and then re-save the layout… http://laser-world-paris.fr/wp-admin/admin.php?page=fpdf&wpfx_form=5jkdf&wpfx_layout=12&wpfx_dataset=3
FYI: To optimize the PDF we ran Acrobat’s “Optimize PDF” and then ran the “Combine Files” function to create a new copy of the PDF and the file size reduced from 16MB to 626k! A HUGE difference! Also, we will change the plugin’s error message to provide a better description of the too large file issue. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!

Please update the PRO2PDF plugin as we have release an update that addresses the lowercase issue. However, changing the font is not an option when using the Unicode option.

Yes, you may have your own pdf files populated with the data from Formidable Pro forms. The Formidable will handle the conditional logic, PRO2PDF will merge the resulting text. While PRO2PDF does not use Formidable’s conditional logic, there are several ways to merge the conditional data.
Let us know if you need any help with your merge as we remain at your service.
Mapping Formidable Forms Signature Plugin requires the paid version of PRO2PDF, however, you may use a Formidable single line text field to request a user’s “Electronic Signature” and change the font of the PDF Form’s text field to a script font to resemble a signature.

Yes, they should work as the first set of radios, keeping in mind that the values must be exact. We strongly suggest using copy/paste to ensure the values are identical. If you have confirmed the values, then attach the .pdf form to an email message and send to support AT formidablepro2pdf DOT com for further evaluation.

PRO2PDF is PHP 7 compatible, the warnings do not affect most users. pdfaid is used by the function that converts PDF to docx. files and requires a membership on pdfaid.com.
