We do not offer any subscription plans that do not expire. All initial plans are 1-year, renewals may be 1 to 5 years with higher discounts for additional years.
We confirmed that your licence key did expire on June 9th 2019, however, the plugin will revert to the free version and will still work with one form. The key may be renewed by logging on to the plugins site here, or a new license may be purchased here, once a new or renewed key is active on your WP installation(s), all field map layouts will continue to work.
We remain at your service.

adminKeymasterTo be clear:
Are you clicking SUBMIT on a Formidable Form that has the option “Do not store entries submitted from this form”? Then, the PDF has no data, but if the option is not checked, the PDF has data?If yes:
Make sure the PRO2PDF plugin is updated to the latest version. If the plugin is updated, then there are no known issues, we would need to check your installation to find the problem.Complete this form if you would like us to login and find the problem.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterConfirm you have logged into the account on the plugin site here to deactivate the key, then activate the key on the correct site?
Let us know, we remain at your service.
adminKeymasterSend the OrderID or Activation Key to support @ formidablepro2pdf . com, along with an updated email address and owner’s name so we may research and assign the account so you may renew online with discounts up to 5 years.
We remain at your service.
June 19, 2019 at 10:25 am in reply to: Merge unique PDFs after submit without User Login requirement? #21744adminKeymasterThe translation is not great, but YES, all appears to be correct except… Regarding the FF view… the currentid=[id] will be a filter… view this post.
Let us know if you have any questions as we remain at your service.
adminKeymasterNo activation is needed for servers with PDFtk installed and working. However, if under the hood reads “PDFTK: No” then PDFtk is not correctly installed on the server.
Keep in mind that images and signatures will not be merged when PDFtk is used locally.
This statement is not clear: “Site and Form are not activated by me.” – please reword or provide more details.
If PDFtk is installed, working correctly, and showing YES on the “Under the Hood” tab, then PDFs are generated on your server. Review server logs to check the data.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterOkay, we see the issue…
PRO2PDF does not recognize Formidable’s conditional logic and does not map multiple Formidable Fields to a single PDF field…. (If multiple Formidable Form fields are mapped to a single PDF field, the PDF field will only contain the last mapped field. If the field is hidden due to conditional logic, then the PDF field will be empty/null/blank.)
To fix: Add fields to your PDF for each of the Formidable Fields on top of each other, with transparent backgrounds. Then map the new PDF fields to the corresponding Formidable Fields and all will work as expected.
Let us know if you need additional assistance as we remain at your service.
adminKeymasterWe need to see the PDF, the Formidable Form, and the Field Map Layout to determine the issue.
Based on the description above, if only one option from each field may be selected, then Radio Button fields – not checkbox fields – should be used.
The fastest way for us to help is to upload the PRO2PDF Template here. Or use the link to upload the PDF along with screenshots of the Formidable Form fields and screenshot of the Field Map Layout showing the check/radio field mapping(s). Or provide login credentials and we’ll let you know how to create the field map.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterOpen the PDF form in a PDF form editor and right click on the large field to access the properties to change the field to a “Multi-Line” text field.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterThe setting is on the Field Map Layout. Change “Flatten PDF form” to YES then save the Field Map Layout.
Optionally, you can also use the flatten=yes shortcode parameter.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterFrom the WP Dashboard >> Formidable PRO2PDF >> EXPORT >> Select the Formidable Form and Field Map Layout from the dropdown fields.
Check the “Attach file to Email notifications” is set to YES and the correct Email Action is checked.
Also, check to make sure there are no other Field Map Layouts for the same form, that are set to send Email Attachments.
Let us know the results as we remain at your service.
adminKeymasterYour subscription has been refunded.
If PRO2PDF did not meet your needs, try E2Pdf, the new plugin does more than any PDF tool for WP, and we’re just getting started with it! There’s a free download in the WP plugin repository which allows the testing of all features with one template and a one page PDF.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterYou MUST also install the Formidable Forms plugin.
PRO2PDF is a third-party add-on to Formidable Forms. After you install and activate Formidable Forms, use that plugin to create for the web form… The free version of Formidable Forms is on the WordPress plugin repository.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterSee this thread…
adminKeymasterCreate two identical email notifications for the form, then use a conditional statement in each notification to send or don’t send. Then, from the plugin’s EXPORT tab, make sure the only the correct Email Notification is selected under the Email Attachment setting.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterThank you for your continued support of PRO2PDF! We reset and tested your login credentials, check your email.
Reply to the email with your IP address if you are unable to login using this link.
Also, reply to the email if you would like us to move the new Activation Key to your original account.
We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterCheck to make sure your have also installed and activated the Formidable Forms plugin, the free version is available in the WordPress plugin repository.
If both plugins are installed… then let us know…
Are you receiving any errors?
Can you see the Formidable PRO2PDF menu option in the WordPress dashboard?adminKeymasterYes, by adding a conditional statement on the Formidable Form’s email action you can set the email to not send if a condition is reached.
Let us know if you need any further assistance. We remain at your service

adminKeymasterThe ‘hold harmless’ waiver you cite obligates your customers to hold you harmless, correct?
– CorrectRegarding external dependency, based upon your reply this is my understanding:
– Correct, however to add… the Intranet Version ($69 one-time payment) is required to release all the plugin’s value-added features.By comparison, e2PDK will always send customer data to an external resource…
– CorrectThe feature ‘upload a PDF form to the plugin to auto-generate web forms’ seems to indicate … with matching fields and business logic…
– Matching Fields = YES, Business Logic = NO, PDF is also automatically mapped to the auto-generated web form… (of course…;-)
We tested this feature on PDF forms with over 700 fields, the web form was created in about 5 seconds, give or take a blink of the eye. NOTE: CSS formatting, Radio and Check field labeling and some setup will still be required… but, yeah… it does it.Do any of these features/extensions require an additional purchase?
– No, 100% of all features and functionality is included. In fact, it’s free with all features included on WordPress.org for one-template with a one-page PDF form. Only multi-page form functionality is missing, which includes conditional logic and spanning a single field of varying data across pages, which had been a stumbling-block in WP PDFing – until E2pdf.We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterYes, PRO2PDF will do exactly as you described. The reason you described is exactly why PRO2PDF was created over 5 years ago.
However, E2Pdf is even better! Let us know if you have any questions or need further assistance.
Which ever you choose, we support both, and we remain at your service.
adminKeymasterGreat questions, thank you for asking.
What happens in the event a customer purchases a subscription level that includes multiple sites and/or multiple forms for the first year, but then decides not to renew? How if at all is the functionality of the product affected?
– The plugin reverts to the free version 1-Site | 1-Form.
Field map layouts are saved – not deleted – and can be made active (one at a time) on the site. All will be active if the key is renewed or a new key is purchased.Is your product licensed under GPL?
– YesDoes your product’s functionality depend on availability of a remote service or is it atomic to the customer’s site?
– Both options exist. Our server is used if the client server does not have PDFtk installed and active. Our server is also required to merge signatures and images.Is user-submitted data sent to a remote service or entity?
– Same answer as above.If so, will you indemnify your customers in the event that process is compromised?
– The user agreement includes a strict hold-harmless waiver.Do you offer price protection for your subscribers based on initial purchase, or can the subscription renewal price be arbitrarily increased over time?
– There is no specific wording for ‘price protection’, however, the prices have remained the same since release, and we do not expect to change the pricing. There are offers of up to a 30% discount on multi-year renewals.What are the differences between FormidablePro2Pdf and ePdf? Does ePdf provide more flexibility?
– E2Pdf is far superior not only to PRO2PDF, but to every other WP PDF plugin. E2Pdf includes a PDF document creator, PDF form creator/editor, a visual mapper, conditionals, integrates with multiple form and data capturing plugins and Adobe ESignature, and is feature rich. Additionally, E2Pdf is the only web form auto-generator ever created, just upload a PDF form to the plugin to auto-generate web forms for Formidable Forms, Gravity Forms, Formiator, and Caldera (more to come). The E2Pdf website includes a tool for migrating PRO2PDF templates to E2Pdf.– PRO2PDF includes optional multi-site licenses, and may be used as a stand-alone plugin when PDFtk is installed on the server, and may be used on intranets. PDFtk is NOT actively updated, so if PDFtk fails to be compatible with WordPress, we will have no option but to abandon the plugin for E2Pdf.
Let us know if you have any follow-up questions. We remain at your service.

We remain at your service.
adminKeymasterWe apologize for the delay, we are not sure why your message went to spam.
There is not a way to change the number of pages in a PDF, however as a work-around, you can create additional PDFs and Field Map Layouts then use conditionals and/or conditional statements to dynamically change which layout is used to produce the final PDF.
Our new plugin, E2Pdf, does allow the number of pages to change depending on the data.
Let us know if you need additional support, as we remain at your service.
