We have a form with number of input fields. We have a Formidable PDF as well. We want to know that whether it is possible to map multiple fields to single filed in PDF.
For example form contain input A, input B and input C. (All inputs are individual field in form)
And the PDF also contain field 1, field 2 field 3 and field 4We want to do the following mapping
1) input A to field 1
2) input B to field 2
3) input C to field 3
4) input A, B and C to field 4Mapping of 1, 2 and 3 is quit easy to do with formidable PRO2PDF.
we want to know whether the 4th kind of mapping is possible? if yes, how to do with formidable PRO2PDF. If not, please let us know any other possible ways.There are two ways to accomplish the above;
1) Use Formidable’s “Calculated Text Field” to combine “input A, B and C” in a hidden field, then map the hidden field to the PDF “field 4” using PRO2PDF.2) From the field map layout, map the one PDF field to the “Formidable:Dynamic” choice listed in the “Webform Data Field ID” dropdown. Then add something like this to the text box; if field ID’s for Input A = [111], Input B = [222], Input C = [333]
[111][222][333]
or
[111], [222], [333]
or
[111]
[222]
[333]*NOTE: “Formidable:Dynamic” also accepts regular text, Formidable View shortcodes, and Formidable conditional logic like: [if x equals=”something”] [/if x]

“Formidable:Dynamic” is the last option in the “Webform Data Field ID” dropdown as selected in the image below which demonstrates how to use a COMB field with only the month & year of a date field.

Set the PDF field to Multi-line as shown below.

With flatten set to YES, PRO2PDF will output the merged PDF file as a “non-editable” PDF file rather than a PDF file with form fields.
With flatten set to “Yes, and transform text into images”, PRO2PDF will output the merged PDF file the same as above, except the text will be converted into an image, rendering the text non-selectable for copying and non-editable.
With flatten set to NO, PRO2PDF will output the merged PDF file with all form fields. This option may be used in conjunction with the “READ-ONLY” PDF form field option to allow some fields to be edited and others non-editable.

[111 show=”field_label”]

Use the shortcode twice to show the field label before the field value like this…
[111 show=”field_label”] – [111]We remain at your service.
Multi language is a function of Formidable Forms and WordPress, not PRO2PDF. This is a great question for the outstanding support staff at Formidable Forms.

Did you request assistance from Formidable, what did they say?
At this time we are only able to offer continued support on the developed functionality of PRO2PDF as we are working overtime to release the replacement to PRO2PDF, named E2Pdf…

PRO2PDF does not provide support for WPML, it is a function of Formidable Forms, what did Formidable say?
