Reading your request, it appears you want to upload and edit the PDF’s online. If so, there is no plugin able to accomplish such a task, this would require a system similar to Adobe’s LiveCycle.
Automatic field map creation (for admin users) is a built-in function on the Field Map Layout screen when the pdf field name matches the Formidable Form field_key. With the exception of multi-select list fields, and repeatable sections which require manual mapping.
It may be possible to create a customized front-end solution, if needed, complete this form to have us review the request. (http://wp.me/P67GUo-1iw)

After you create one field map layout, you can just DUPLICATE it by clicking the duplicate button at the bottom of the layout. Then, change the field mappings and email action to match the next row of data.
Again, this will be a glorious use of the plugin!
Thinking this through, you’ll need to create an email action and a field map layout for each row.
1. For each email action – Set up the “TO:” email address and students data in the body to match one row of data.
2. For each field map layout – Select a corresponding email action.When you’re done, you’ll have a form with 15 rows, 15 email actions and 15 field map layouts that will all trigger when you hit submit.
It will be glorious!
Yes, absolutely… with this plugin you may attach a merged PDF to one or multiple form email actions, and Formidable’s email actions can be set to conditionally send based on form data.
You could have one email sent for each of the 15 rows, each with unique data merged into an attached PDF.
Exactly what you described. Let us know if you need help setting this up, we remain at your service.
PING!
Were you able to find and fix the issue?

Please be advised, we have not experienced any issues as you’ve described, your request has been sent to our senior developer, please allow 1-2 days for a reply.
Does the merge work from the Field Map Layout page?
Delete any unused Field Map Layouts for the same form.
Please provide a screenshot of the complete File Map Layout screen with the Form and Layout selected.
Thank you for using our plugin!
Your activation key was emailed to the address provided (g***@any***test***.com) We will send a direct email to you too.

Please verify the following;
1) Your PDF form already has PDF form fields. (Our plugin does not edit or ‘create’ pdf forms, we map and merge Formidable fields to PDF Form fields.)2.) You have submitted data to the Formidable Form at least once. (Required for the Field Map Layout screen to recognize the Formidable form fields.)
If the above is verified and you are still unable to edit the field map, please email a complete screenshot of the Field Map Layout screen with the desired Formidable Form and Layout selected to support (at) formidablepro2pdf DOT com for further assistance.

We are sorry the plugin was not able to be used in your project. A full refund has been issued, we remain at your service.
We strive to provide the WP community with a universally useful tool, could you let us know which functionality or element(s) are needed or missing from the plugin?
Apologies! It’s working now, complete this form.
We have not experienced a “Error Establishing Database Connection” in the past. If possible, we’d like to login to your WP installation and take a look, and because this appears to be database issue, we may also need FTP access. If okay to login, complete this form, if not okay, then please ask your hosting provider to run a check on the MySQL database for any errors, then let us know the results.
We remain at your service.
Does the demo form work? Is your PDF Form a LiveCycle form?
An immediate workaround is with a confirmation from the user to use (map) the same Formidable signature field for each of the PDF signature fields, as it is likely the number of signatures is causing a timeout that will not be easily fixed.
However, we are unable to login to your server using /wp-admin/, please reply with the correct url for your WP login screen and we’ll take a look.
Additionally, we use Formidable Hooks to combine text fields, see here: https://formidablepro.com/knowledgebase/frm_validate_field_entry/#kb-combine-multiple-fields-into-one-field
Our PRO2PDF plugin does not calculate, combine fields, or offer javascript functionality and we do not offer support for JQuery or Javascript.
Formidable provides data calculation through hooks, javascript, and JQuery, see here: https://formidablepro.com/knowledgebase/frm_validate_field_entry/#kb-calculate-final-date and can be used with JQuery’s Datepicker: http://jqueryui.com/datepicker/
Adobe PDF’s also make use of their own javascript language, see here: http://www.pdfscripting.com/public/department44.cfm
UPDATE: We expect more information on our attempts to resolve the known issue in (1) one week.
Changing the PDF font may resolve the issue, however, there is a known bug with Slovenian, Croatian, Slovak and Czech characters (Č,č, ć, Ć, ž, Ž, š, Š) and we are currently working to resolve the issue. Full refunds are available if you find the plugin is not able to render the characters required in your document.
Yes, the plugin was made to solve your task, and we are at your service to assist in making it work.
We are also able to create the template for you, if needed, please complete this form for a template customization cost.
Not a problem, we can change the subscription and refund the difference. What is your order number?

Our understanding is that, “UETA/ESIGN compliant” is only required when explicitly stated in the document’s electronic signing/filing instructions. However, only the lawyers really know… and they too argue about it.
We have been using Formidable’s signature plugin for all our tax forms and insurance client signatures since 2013, without any issues.
Great question! The phrase “legally acceptable in the USA” is relative to the instructions or guidelines of the document or agency.
For instance, some documents/agencies may require “UETA/ESIGN compliant”, however, for the W-9 the signature is required to be from a system that “authenticates and verifies the submission“, which a WordPress user account accomplishes.
If you have more questions about the signature add-on plugin, open a support ticket on FormidablePro.com as they know their plugin, and its legality, much better than we do.
This is not “built-in” to Formidable, however, you can achieve the desired result by redirecting the user to a Formidable View with a ‘Confirmation” form after they click submit. Then, if not confirmed, redirect them to EDIT the original form.
This is something we can do for you as a customization job. Complete this form if you would like a cost estimate, which will be inexpensive.
Yes, that’s correct. We recently added an Automatic Field Map Layout feature, so if you name the PDF fields the same as the Formidable fields, they will map automatically. All except multi-select checkboxes.
