    Quisiera saber si es posible de forma dinámica que el PDF generado a partir del formulario pudiera arrojar opciones de respuesta según el valor de la respuesta; es decir, si escogen la opción 1 que tiene un valor de 0.25 arrojar en el resultado, mostrar la solución o sugerencia en base a su respuesta que tengo preparado para el PDF.

    Hi Krissel,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, our Spanish Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users at the moment. I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Spanish, let us know and we can have them do that. But, keep in mind that you'd have to wait until they're available again.

    Now, let me help you with your question. You can add a hidden Long Text element and use the Update/Calculate Field conditional logic to populate the Long Text element with your solution or suggestion. This will dynamically show your solution in the generated PDF document in PDF Editor. Here's how to do it:

    1. Add a hidden Long Text element to your form.Dynamically display a solution or suggestion in the generated PDF document based on their chosen option Image 1 Screenshot 50
    2. Then, click Settings in Form Builder.
    3. Go to the Conditions tab.
    4. Click the Add Condition button.Dynamically display a solution or suggestion in the generated PDF document based on their chosen option Image 2 Screenshot 61
    5. Set up multiple Update/Calculate Field conditional logic to populate the Long Text element with your solution or suggestion based on their selected option from the Single Choice field.

    You can test my demo form or clone it to see how it is set up. If that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, can you explain a bit more so I can help you better? 

    Give it a try, and let us know how it goes.
