Get form results as PDF documents using our Results Docs feature. Export results as PDF files from your Formsite account, save to a connected Google Drive account, or attach result PDFs to Notification emails. Choose either our built-in PDF table format or use custom PDF templates.

Using our PDF table format

To receive PDF versions of each form result, the built-in PDF table format is available for PDF exports, saving to Google Drive, and receiving as Notification email attachments. The table format displays your form items and the result answers in an easy-to-read table, then creates a PDF document for each separate result. Only the answers are included in the table format and additional text, images, or other formatting requires using the custom PDF template.

Using your custom PDF template

Optionally, form owners can use a PDF template and connect the results data to create custom PDF documents. Templates are made as fillable PDF forms and uploaded to the Formsite account, then the form items are connected to the PDF template fields. Existing PDF forms can be used as a template, like standard tax forms, employment or application forms, invoices, etc.
