    Can this form be Encrypted now that it is finished? I didn’t know about your encryption capabilities until recently. I would hate to have to re-create this form all over again.

    Yes, existing forms can be encrypted anytime. You just have to enable the Encrypt Form Data option from the Settings of the builder page.

    So there is one private key per form that we can use to open every submission of that form? In other words, the key is associated with a Form, rather than a the submission?

    Is the form encrypted to the Recipient? Is the form encrypted to the Responder (the one filling out the form)?
    Will the Encrypted form still send the PDF attachment?
    Will other attachments that will be sent to the Recipients or Responder upon submission still be in the email?

    I’m realizing now the Encryption may not be the best way for us to go with this form.
    Is it possible to send the Recipients’ copies directly to Dropbox?
