Parameters

$form_id | integer

Usage

This snippet shows the minimum settings that should be passed when adding a new PDF:

add_action( 'init', function() {

if ( class_exists( 'GPDFAPI' ) ) {

/* Set up PDF settings */

$settings = array(

'name' => 'API PDF',

'template' => 'zadani',

'filename' => 'Custom_Filename_{:2}',

);

/* Create a new PDF on form #2 */

$pdf = GPDFAPI::add_pdf( 2, $settings );

/* Check if PDF was successfully created */

if( false !== $pdf ) {

//Success! $pdf references the new PDF ID

}

}

} );

For the full list of settings available see the form_settings, form_settings_appearance and form_settings_advanced arrays in the Helper_Options_Fields::get_registered_fields() method.
