    Greetings,

    For our event, we want to send an automatic certificate of completion to those that answer one question on our form. What's the best approach to send automatic pdf that include fields from a form?

    Hi Crystal,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I'm an AI assistant here to assist you.

    Let me help you with that:

    To send an automatic certificate of completion as a PDF that includes fields from your form, the best approach is to use Jotform's PDF Editor and Email Notifications together. Here's how to do it:

    1. Create your form with the question that determines if the user should receive the certificate.
    2. Design a PDF certificate in Jotform PDF Editor that includes the form fields you want to show on the certificate.
    3. Set up an Email Notification that triggers when the form is submitted. In the email settings, attach the PDF certificate you designed.
    4. Use conditional logic in the email settings or form settings to send the certificate only to those who answer the specific question as desired.

    This way, when someone submits the form and meets the condition, they will automatically receive a personalized PDF certificate with their form data.

    If you want to create a fillable PDF version of your form, you can also create a fillable PDF using the PDF Editor.

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