Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

A *very* small helper module to make it easy to link a single Webform (4.x) to a FillPDF (1.9 patched to support new-style Webform tokens). FillPDF already has the ability to provide Webform submission values to a FillPDF file, but the syntax is a little bit complicated, so this module provides a menu callback path so you can redirect your Webform to custom path like /webform_fillpdf/[fid]/[nid]/[sid], and it will handle creating the webforms[] array of arrays to pass to fillpdf_pdf_link() and redirect you to a download of the filled PDF.

HOW TO USE

  1. Install Webform 4.x, FillPDF 1.9, and Tokens module.
  2. Patch FillPDF to support webform 4.x-style tokens
  3. Create a Webform node with some components that will be used to fill in a PDF
  4. Create a FillPDF file using a fillable PDF that includes fields corresponding to your Webform components
  5. Map fields from the FillPDF to your Webform components using Tokens like [submission:values:name]
  6. Under the Webform's "Form Settings" subtab, select Custom confirmation page, and use the URL webform_fillpdf/2/[node:nid]/[submission:sid] (or use the standard confirmation page textarea, and include a href link to that URL)
