If you want to use a calculation or combine multiple fields you can use formulas, to do so select a pdf field, and in the “Mapped To” section select Formula

Adding fields to a formula

To add a field in your formula click on “Add tag to formula” and select the field that you want to include

Adding fixed values

You can also add fixed numbers to the formula by just including them without a format like this:

To add a text you need to add it surrounded by a double quotation symbol:

Combining fields

To combine text you can use an addition operation like this:

This would combine the name field with the last field. Using an operation like this would combine them without spaces though, so for example if the name is “John” and the Last Name is “Doe” this operation would show JohnDoe, to add an space you just need to also include an space between them like this:

Using conditions

You can use the following syntaxis to add conditional text

if(condition)
  return value_to_use;
Value_to_use_otherwise;

Example:

The formula above will return “John submitted this form” when the name field has the value “John”. In any other case, the formula will return “Someone else submitted this form”

The following conditions are supported:

Using multiple conditions

You can use as many conditions as you want in your formula, for example, the condition below will check if the name is John or mary too

Also, you can use multiple conditions within the same if condition if you separate them with an “or” or “and”

The example above will show “John or Mary” submitted the form if either John or Mary submitted it.
