    Hi, a few of the sheets in my form are pdf's. Is there a way I can add these to my form? either by adding the pdf's themselves or creating them as some other kind of sheet (xls maybe)?

    Thanks

    My apologies, I'm not sure I understood your question correctly. Do you want to edit your uploaded PDF?

    I have checked your form and you have used the PDF embedder to embed your PDF.
    Can you please explain further how you want your PDF to work with your form?

    Looking forward  for your response.

    Hi Richie_P,

    Sorry about the rushed question.. 

    What I meant to say was I've got the pdf document which I've uploaded to my form (as you have seen).. my issue is its not editable. Using the PDF widget doesn't enable it to be changed or added to within the form...

    I guess my question is two part:

    Can I make my pdf editable within my form? if not what would be the best solution?

    Thanks

    Thank you for the clarification.

    Unfortunately, there is no option to edit uploaded PDF files.

    You may edit your PDF file manually using Adobe Acrobat and uploading/embedding it back using the PDF embedder widget.

    Hope this information helps.

    If you have further questions, let us know.
