The new options this extension adds to Core and Universal templates

Refer to the sections below for information on what each feature does and how to enable it:

Show All Available Options

Show Field Options : This feature allows you to control if all available options are shown in the PDF for Radio, Checkbox, Select and Multiselect (RCSM) fields. : If a user selected an option it'll show up as an ☒, if the option isn't selected it'll be an empty ballot box instead ☐ : You can individually enable this functionality for each field type. For example, you can set only Radio fields to show all options, and leave the other fields using the standard Gravity PDF output. : If you aren't using a layout column on your RCSM field (usually using the CSS classes, like gf_left_half, gf_left_third or gf_first_quarter) you can create up to five option columns. Use the CSS classes gf_list_2col, gf_list_3col, gf_list_4col, or gf_list_5col to enable this functionality. : Note: Option columns don't work in the templates Formium, Colossus or Cellulose as they utilise layout columns internally. : This feature does not currently apply to Product fields that utilise an RCSM field. : You can find this setting at the bottom of the Template tab when editing the PDF Settings for Core and Universal PDF templates.

Toggle Option Label / Value

Option Field Display : This feature allows you to control whether Radio, Checkbox, Select and Multiselect (RCSM) fields will show the selected option label or value in the PDF. : This setting will apply to all RCSM fields in your form, including Product fields that utilise RCSM field types. : To utilise this feature correctly you need to take advantage of RCSM field's "Use Value" option in the Form Editor. Values must be unique and cannot contain any HTML markup or special characters : You can find this setting at the bottom of the Template tab when editing the PDF Settings for Core and Universal PDF templates.

Show Field Descriptions

Show Field Description? : When enabled, a field's description will be displayed alongside the user's response. : The description position is determined by your Form Settings and can be placed above or below the user's response in the PDF. : You can find this setting at the bottom of the Template tab when editing the PDF Settings for Core and Universal PDF templates.

Group / Ungroup Product Fields

Group Products? : Disable this feature to prevent products from being grouped at the end of a PDF. Instead, they'll be displayed in the order they appear in your Form Editor. : When products aren't grouped together you can hide them using our special exclude CSS class. : Note: this option isn't currently available in the Colossus or Cellulose templates as they have Group Products disabled by default. : You can find this setting at the bottom of the Template tab when editing the PDF Settings for Core and Universal PDF templates.

Toggle Field Labels

Field Label Display : This feature gives you three different ways to display the field labels in the PDF:

  1. Display the Standard/Field Label for all fields
  2. Display the Admin Field Label for all fields
  3. Display the Admin Field Label for fields that have one, otherwise fall back to the Standard/Field Label : This feature applies to all Gravity Form fields that support an Admin Field label. This does not include Product fields while grouped together in the Product table. : You can find this setting at the bottom of the Template tab when editing the PDF Settings for Core and Universal PDF templates.
