Customizable PDF export templates

in progress

S R

Add the ability to customize the PDF export. Basically, set up a custom template PDF for your forms, so they are exported in a specific style, not just tabulated entries. Use placeholders to represent specific fields.

IT WAS OPENED ON DEC 4TH AND NO UPDATES YET? OUTRAGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!

Marco Gorbach

Would be really nice to have that feature!

Any update update on this?

Fabrizio Nannini

Hellooooo there! 17 upvotes and still nothing? Is there anyone working on this?

Fabrizio Nannini

Hello, anything yet on this? I mean, c'm on it has been opened on Dec 4th... PDF export still sucks, it is barely editable and actually all the fields are shown - like questions I'd rather avoid to - and one can't change almost anything. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP because it's still almost unusable! TOP PRIORITY!!!

Fabrizio Nannini

Please fix this ASAP and also tell us which tag could we use for them, actually what we got is just:
Tags : {form_name}, {submission_date}
any more tags we can add?

yes good, and tags too, maybe a pie chart option would be a nice touch. For now, I have to edit the PDFs to delete a lot of infos I won't show to the client.

Nik from FormNX PDF mapping would be even better than a traditional custom PDF export with HTML variables, can we do something like this instead? (see attached)
Here, we would map the fields/variables over an existing PDF template (form) and they would be generated with the dynamic variable/field input once the form is completed. No need to stylize the PDF as it would already be stylized and formatted perfectly. 
Also, can we include the PDF download in the webhooks?

Nik from FormNX: Can’t wait!

Nik from FormNX: Can you add the ability to access the PDF in the webhooks? This would be super helpful. Otherwise, the PDFs are kind of unusable for my use-case as I am leveraging automations for the forms.

This would be fine even with the current state of the PDFs - better than nothing - don't feel like you have to add the customizable templates to add the PDF link in the webhooks. Thanks!

Added it above!
