User interface for modifying the settings of actions of type PDF (Fill).

Actions of type PDF (Fill) allow you to fill an existing PDF document with the data of a submitted form.

The PDF must have been prepared for this purpose, see the section on preparing a PDF document.

Alternatively you may use the PDF import tool to upload a PDF document and have the required actions created automatically.

Output file name

File name of the generated PDF. Its extension must be PDF, i.e. the file name must end on .pdf, or this action will fail.

Font for inputs fields
