    I would like to create a pdf file after the form is submitted where parameterized values are used.

     

    For example:

     

    I have two text fields on the form:

     

    1. Company Name and

    2. Letter of Intent

     

    In the second field, i use the value of the company name, so that when the user types in "ABC" the company name text, text in the letter of intent will say "ABC agrees to...".

    So the 2. Letter of Intent is "{companyName} agrees to ..."

    I would like to then display the text of the Letter of Intent in the PDF that I send to the user.

    Right now everything I try results in {companyName} displayed on the pdf, instead of the actual company name.

    It seems that pdf is not resolving values dynamically.

    Please advise, as this an urgent issue.

    It should work. The field values you passed on to the TEXT field in the form should also be available in the submission PDF Report.

    Enable the option Show Headers and Text in the options in the form View Submissions panel.

    Example:

    the PDF report should then have also those passed on field values in the TEXT in the PDF.

    Example PDF result:
