If you accidentally delete a form, you can restore it by following the steps below:
- Open My Forms.
- Select Trash on the left.
- Hover on the deleted form and click Restore.

If you want to restore multiple forms, select them from the list and click Restore.

Select All Forms on the left and you should see the restored forms there.
Note
The system automatically deletes the trashed forms after 30 days. In this case, you can no longer recover them. You also cannot restore forms that you intentionally purged from your Trash folder.

Hello i want to share my form but said in restore mode and i can't share or include on mi FB page.
Could you help me?
Thanks
Thank you. I was able to restore the deleted forms.
It doesn't allow me to restore a deleted form
That was scary. I don't know how a form got deleted. There are no tooltips on any of the objects, such as trash or archive, and their use is not intuitive. You normally click trash to delete something, not restore it, so it was anti-intuitive getting a form restored. In fact, I'm now not sure what the Archive button does. Does it open or show the archive, or put something into it. How do you access something in it?
These are all critical little facts that should be tooltipped for sure.
I also think $200/yr is very expensive for this program.
thank you!!!
How to restore a deleted submission?

help I tried to follow your directions to restore a document in that trash folder, however there is no trash folder. The document I am trying to restore is the WheTEP application folder. How do I restore this if there is not trash folder to access?
Will not let restore form from trash to purge submissions.
I see you replied to my question with regards to retracing my submissions.
However, the reply you send me is to retrace a form.
The submissions of my forms have accidentally been deleted, and not the form. Thus these submissions are not visible in the trash.
I am talking about the form: '' STUUR JE UUROPGAAF ONLINE IN''
Could you please help me retracing the forms?
The submissions of my form have accidentally been deleted.
The form still exists, also in excel, but I can't view the pictures, which are extremly important.
Is there any way to restore these?
Good morning and thank you for your help!
My form could be in the trash folder at the end of many tries but not when I noticed the problem for the first time.
I saw more people reporting the same problem in your forum so I think that some error occurred to your service...
Now it is working fine so thank you anyway for your help.
Have a nice day!
Thank you!!
I've deleted by mistake my form, then I've found the trash and restored it, but as well the form appeared back,I tried to oppen my Application build with "fabrica de aplicativos" (for android phones)

Excellent article ! Just to add my thoughts , if you needs to merge some PDF files , my kids found a service here
Hi, My form suddenly disappear, and now i Can't find and answer the form.
link:
While using the pdf each time i want to submit, i get the mistake error: An error Occured during the submit process. Unknown Failure.
Would you be able to help?
Is there any way of making this PDF password protected atall?
this is not working at all for my pdf, it changes proportions on my header image, has duplicate information without the ability to fill out the field, overlaps text and fillable fields. The file is a complete mess...
How can I import my pdf form into Jotform?
How well would this work with getting clients to sign an agreement?
What is the PDF file to big to attach to an email?
When I submit after I have downloaded the form in Adobe, I click on the SUBMIT button and nothing happens. however when I open it via system source I can submit it? Please advise, as it seems like a long process to explain to people to that they have to open it with system source other than just it automatically opening using a preferred application like Adobe.
Okay.. I have actually found the answer to my first question about the signatures.
I wanna know why the PDF form does allow users to submit them once emailed. I have tested the PDF's on my computer and it worked just fine (I was able to submit) however, once I emailed the same PDF, it would not allow users to submit. Please enlighten us. Thank you!!!
Hi! How can we make them put their signature on the PDF form?
I've tried to use this a few times. I generate a fillable PDF easily (YES), but when I try fill it out, I can put something on one line, and then my computer freezes. Ugh. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Nice feature, but there's still a long way. I've used Jotform for a booking parking system, therefore iI've got multiple calculated fields that unfortunately are not working in current version of pdf generator. I any case it's a good features ;).
Regards
good
Got excited there for a bit. I thought we can import already made PDF forms and make it fillable PDF. :(just how we can do it Ecosign. :( it's would have been a very exciting new feature.
Seems to be working but not perfect. There are missing text fields, and buttons. Also the layout of the form got messed up.
I recommend adding an instruction to the PDFs that they must be filled out using Adobe Acrobat Reader. The form will not submit if you try to fill it out in a web browser.
We use Jotform for order forms with payment built in (using Stripe). Neither the order form part with payment or the credit card part of the form seem to be transferring to the pdf version.
Is this something which might come later?
Thank you for Jotform and all the new features you are providing.
Need help setting up new system. When will old system end? I do not need to change the present form on my web site.
Please reply to Maureen@centralconnectors.com or phone at 732 972 3456
Thanx for your support
It doesnt seem to be working for my forms.
@jukigo
Submit problem occurred because you had custom page. We fixed the issue today, your forms should submit now.
@1thomh1: Sounds like this would be perfect for that use case:
1. Create a PDF form
2. Give it to the person who has no internet (with a USB stick?)
3. The person fills the form and saves it. No internet is needed for saving the filled PDF file.
4. Make a copy of the PDF file and save it if more needed.
5. The person gives you the filled PDF files
6. You either save the filled PDF files, or if you need them on jotform, click on the submit button when you are online.
I like it, I assume this is you guys taking over the Adobe forms? If it still needs to connect to the internet to submit, It's not very viable. It would be much handier if it was a full work offline alternative. I.e. Either the ability to send the file in some type to user with lack of internet, they complete it and somehow get it back to you and you upload it. Or, If you were able to make multiple submissions to the form, then upload it yourself at a later date. This would mean the ability to take a tablet to an exhibition, or out and about, have clients fill out the form on them, then upload the responses in mass when back in the office.
Great feature. My forms need to be signed but can't get this part to work. Is this not available yet?
It seems a lot of the formatting is gone. I have spent the last 3 months working on something similar to this - was very excited to see this release! Unfortunately, I can't use it until it's a little more advanced. Would love to add photos etc into this somehow and be fully offline!
Freakin awesome again - one of my favorite all time web service companies
Good step in the right direction, however, not yet ready for prime time.
Fillable PDF does not seem to be working.
Returns a blank page.
Awesome feature! I noticed an issue when I exported a "course sign-up" form. The user is supposed to pick one radio-button option from the list, but when you click on one of them, it automatically fills several of the other options, when they are only supposed to be able to pick one.
good job !
but it dosent transfer the signature space , how to add
E signature online thank
I could not create the pdf form of the web form I went through My Forms->More->Create pdf Form. The page is loading for few moments and no responses is observed. I have created one pdf form of another web form but I didn't find the submit button. Please help me to create the pdf form.
Can the PDF Builder be used to create a signature liability form that can be signed with a client's finger on ipad type platform?
Unfortunately you can't combine these files with a traditional PDF... Creating quite the issue.
One of the best feature! I can download forms to PDF, enter data and save it locally or submit it straight on the PDF. :D
Great step in the right direction! When you've figured out one additional option, you'll be good to go from my perspective. I would like to be able to upload pdf forms that I've created on my computer to your site rather than use your form builder. Thanks for helping with this transition from Adobe.
Great idea and glad its now available. I suppose you would ensure the form you create doesn't require "conditions" or business rules, with show/hide function. That would not work I would imagine. Having said that, I think it serves an excellent purpose for forms showing all fields.
This does not seem to work and comes up with either an error or blank. Could you help?
my form is said to disabled. what to do to make it not disabled
how come i can't found the deleted form at trash there? help
