    Hello there!

    I have a have form build on JotForm that fills a PDF (made with JotForm PDF editor). The form require the filler to attach some docs (PDF or jpg)

    I'm looking for a solution to merge all the attached files the filler uploaded to the doc and the filled PDF.

    I would need to download it from JotForm inbox or email inbox or even better have it on Google Docs.

    Many thanks

    Hi there,

    If you are looking to automatically merge all the uploaded files to the same doc, unfortunately that is not currently possible. If the attached files are images, they will show on the PDF report automatically, but other file types, such as documents, will be attached separately and cannot be merged. You can still receive the submission and the uploaded files together with the following:

    With a notification email, you can receive all the attached files in the same email.

    With our Google Drive integration, all the attached files included in a submission will be uploaded automatically to the same Google Drive folder. The integration will save the uploaded files to your Google Drive folder. I would suggest testing the Google Docs integration to see if it could suit your needs.

    We also have an integration with Google Sheets. When a file is uploaded on the form, it is saved on our servers. The Google Sheets integration will provide a link to the uploaded file on our servers.
