    Hi Richie,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Attaching your submissions as PDF files to your Notification Emails is easy. Let me walk you through it:

    1. In Form Builder, in the orange navigation bar at the top of the page, click on the Settings tab.

    2. In the menu on the left side of the page, click on Emails.

    3. Hover your mouse over the Notification Email element and click on the Pencil icon.

    4. Click on the Advanced tab, toggle Attach PDF to the On position, and select the PDF file you created.

    5. Now, scroll down, click on Save, and you're done.

    Hi Thanks for that.
    Is there a way to have the shaded out cells appear on the pdf?

    Hi Richie,

    If you apply CSS codes to hide the cells, it should still appear in the PDF. CSS codes only work on the front end of the form, and does not affect the PDF. If you still need any help with the CSS codes, you can reply to the previous thread to avoid confusion.

    Let us know if you need any more help.

    Hi,

    I

    don't seem to be getting an answer on this. I would like my form to be sent as a pdf with the shaded cells as my form is seen on the front end. I have used CSS to shade out certain cells but this is not transferred to PDF when the form is submitted.
