Integrate PDF with WooCommerce

Hi,

I use your GravityPDF along with WooCommerce Gravity Forms Add-On
( http://www.woothemes.com/products/gravity-forms-add-ons/ )

This allows me to capture extra information when people order a product, and then generate the PDF, which works pretty awesome.

My issue is now. Once the PDF is created, I can download it from The Gravity Forms sections, but ideally I would like it to be integrated as a Downloadable product with WooCommerce so that customers can get it automatically once paid.

This is the product which generate the PDF:

This is the PDF generated:
http://outoforder.co.za/03-ze/?gf_pdf=1&fid=2&lid=32&template=tree-table.php

Is this a bit crazy?
Thank you

The way I see it could work, is for this the PDF url to be added as the download file.
BUT the entry id of 32 must be dynamic to reflect the relevant entry.

Hi,

After an extensive review over 12 months, we decided that due to limitations in the WooCommerce Gravity Forms Add-On we cannot support the software in any way.

I must admit, your approach with the “Download” URL in WooCommerce is interesting. With that said, there are a number of security protocols in place to prevent access to PDFs and I’d say, if you ever got the technique to work, they would cause problems for some users.

If you really wanted to use WooCommerce you would need to develop a custom solution to work with Gravity PDF. Alternatively, you could bypass WooCommerce all together and use one of Gravity Forms payment gateways to capture a payment and make the PDF available for download – or automatically email it.
