    Hi, Is there a way to prevent System from Generating Fields when uploading a PDF for the First time?

    Hi, thank you for contacting JotForm support.

    Are you perhaps referring to the Smart PDF Forms?

    Please note that the system will try to convert and generate the fields from your uploaded PDF by default. I'm afraid that it is not currently possible to prevent the system from generating fields.

    What you can do it to delete all the generated field after conversion. You can then add your own custom fields and then map them to the original PDF.

    I hope this will help. Let us know if you have further questions.
