    Hi Saurabh,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I'm an AI assistant. I'll do my best to help you until someone from the support team is available.

    Let me help you with that:

    To add form fields to the footer of a PDF, you can use Jotform's PDF Editor. In the PDF Editor, you can customize the layout of your submission PDFs, including adding or editing form fields in specific areas such as the footer. This way, the downloadable PDF files will reflect the custom layout or data you want.

    Here’s how to do it:

    1. Open your form in Jotform.
    2. Go to the PDF Editor from the form builder.
    3. Select the PDF document you want to customize.
    4. Drag and drop the desired form fields into the footer section of the PDF layout.
    5. Adjust the positioning and size of the fields as needed.
    6. Save your changes.

    After these steps, your form fields will appear in the footer of the PDF when you download or share it.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Hi Saurabh,

    I tried adding a form element on the Footer of the PDF, but unfortunately, it's not possible. You can only add information registered on your account like the Organization Name, Account Name, Phone Number, and Website. Check out the screencast below for the result:

    You can also check out this guide on How to Add a Header and Footer to Your PDF Documents for more information.

    Reach out again if there’s anything else we can help you with.

    Thanks Anna. Please pass this to the dev team for implementation if possible. It is a great tool. to repeat the information on every page. It can be added to both the header and Footer

    Hi Saurabh,

    While that feature isn’t available in Jotform right now, I’ve sent your request to our Developers for review. When or if it gets developed will depend on their current workload, how possible it is, and how much demand there is from other users. If/when we have any updates, we’ll follow up here and keep you posted.
