Export to PDF for HTML Checkbox element

[vicks1985]

I am having couple of HTML checkbox elements on the edit form. Once user selects the checkbox and enters values in all fields, form needs to be exported to pdf document. All values are copied over except the checkboxes and the checked checkbox. Is it possible to copy over these fields too?

Hello vicks1985,

This is a known issue.

You can either redirect users to export the display form or create a custom button for exporting from to PDF that replaces checkbox with the checkmark using this code:

Code: Select all

$('input[type=checkbox]:checked').replaceWith( '<a style="font-weight: bold;">v</a>' )
fd.saveAsPDF('invoice.pdf')
