PDF Documents and Emails

    I have researched this topic extensively before asking this question to you guys.  But here goes,

    I have created a form that is pretty exhaustive and contains many, many fields.  This form will ultimately be a HIPPA compliant form.

    One thing I am having problems with is, and I do not know if its possible, is to show a completed form in PDF format at the end of the users completion.  This completed form then gets sent as an email attachment.  I completely want to get away from the HTML table in the email body and just make it a "form letter" response instead and use data from the fields that were completed.

    So to summarize, here is my best effort in a flow chart (kind of):

    User completes form>entered data is entered into a pdf at the end of form>completed pdf is sent as attachment in message


    Thanks for all of your help and for making a fantastic product!

    The workflow you're referring to is possible here in JotForm.

    You can actually attach a PDF copy of the submission in the email alerts. You just need to enable the PDF attachment in the Advanced tab of an email alert. Here's how: How-to-include-submissions-as-PDF-attachment-in-the-email-notifications.

    If you want to customize the layout of the PDF, please use the PDF Editor. Here's how: How-to-Customize-PDF-Submissions-Report.
