Or at least not with a lot of custom work to make it happen. The PDF form can't submit to Gravity Forms. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-in-a-file-hard-copy#post-22450 Mon, 04 Apr 2011 14:55:01 +0000 axaris 22450@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>OK thanks,<br /> One last thing; is there a way I can link the fields from my pdf form (or any other form that I built from scratch) to the fields on my gravity form and submit it remotely? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-in-a-file-hard-copy#post-22431 Mon, 04 Apr 2011 13:58:35 +0000 Carl Hancock 22431@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can't export the form to XML and import it into another form builder, the other form builder wouldn't know what to do with it. It's only for exporting/importing forms in Gravity Forms. However, you can export the entries to CSV file and import them into any application that supports CSV. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-in-a-file-hard-copy#post-22428 Mon, 04 Apr 2011 12:51:50 +0000 axaris 22428@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Carl,<br /> Thanks for the link but unfortunately the form it creates is not "fillable" in acrobat nor "editable" in LiveCycle (acrobat form designer).<br /> Acrobat Pro has the same feature i.e. reading html pages and creating forms and those were fillable but not editable but the format was all messed up and I also tried importing the xml export file with Adobe LiveCycle and the application crushed : )<br /> I am currently looking for a copy of Infopath so that I can give that a try as well.</p> <p>Have you tried importing the export xml file into another "form builder/designer" software?</p> <p>Ari </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-in-a-file-hard-copy#post-22411 Mon, 04 Apr 2011 11:49:53 +0000 Carl Hancock 22411@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Check out this service, you may be able to implement their save to PDF button that they have for PDF conversion: </p> <p><a href="http://pdfcrowd.com/save-to-pdf/" rel="nofollow">http://pdfcrowd.com/save-to-pdf/</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-in-a-file-hard-copy#post-22319 Sat, 02 Apr 2011 13:35:53 +0000 axaris 22319@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The idea is to give the user the option of either completing my rather long gravity form online or downloading it as a pdf file version of the same form on his desktop and submitting it by email. So, does anybody know how I can take the exported xml gravity form file and transform it into a pdf form without having to reformat etc.?</p> <p>Even more interestingly does anybody know how I could make that pdf form version submit information directly onto the website....?</p> <p>Thanks </p>
