templates by send email action if you want to specify a custom template for a specific send email action that can be done by configuring the custom pdf template setting in the send email action itself in the example above the template would be located at wp content uploads ws form pdf templates my template html note that the export pdf link on the submissions page will always use the standard template or the form specific template how a pdf is created the add on uses the popular dompdf converter to transform the parsed html template in a pdf document please refer to their online help for
