Notes Block

Notes allow you to add static, free form text to a form. A forms builder will use notes to add text to the document that is not associated with a database record- For example Terms & Conditions. A Forms user can use the notes block at runtime to provide comments, such as special deal terms.

One-click export

Forms builders can add a button to the form that allows users of the form to automatically export to PDF or HTML. An important benefit of this feature is that it enables form users to interact directly with the form in full screen without having to know anything about FormFactory.

One-click email

Forms builders can add a button to the form that allows users of the form to automatically send a PDF version via email. The user can attach the PDF to a record in Salesforce, automatically create an Activity record, and save the PDF in a Salesforce folder. This also allows users to work with a simplified view of the form (presentation mode) and email the form while running in full screen.
