We tested the file map layout from the plugin’s Export page and from the form’s Confirmation action using this shortcode [formidable-download form=”syp-fund” dataset=[id] layout=”1007″], and both produced a password-protected PDF. We did not experience the described error.
However, it appears that the original PDF form that was uploaded to PRO2PDF is password-protected. The original PDF file cannot be password-protected. Use the plugin’s password= parameter to set a password for the merged PDF.
If you are still receiving an error message, please let us know where and provide screenshots.
We remain at your service.
