 * The “select menu” or “drop down menu” are not appearing when published to PDF.
   Any solution please?

 * It is not very clear what your problem is. Is it possible for you to send a screenshot?

 * Thanks for your prompt reply,
 * I currently have a drop down menu in my online form, however, despite all fields
   worked, the drop down menu remained empty when the online form was converted 
   to PDF format. Are drop down menus supported or am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

 * To be clear, the plugin that this support forum is for does not convert anything
   to a PDF format. It just takes an existing PDF file with AcroForm fields and 
   fills them with data from your online form.
 * All types of CF7 fields are supported. Please send your PDF file to my email,
   which is admin at maximum dot software and I will check it out. Also, it would
   help if you can send your CF7 form tags for the select and the drop down, in 
   case the issue is with the tags themselves.

 * You changed the values in the CF7 tag.
 * Here is what is generated by the plugin,
 * `[select flight-rules include_blank "I" "V" "Y" "Z"]`
 * Here is what you have,
 * `[select* FLIGHTRULES id:FLIGHTRULES class:FLIGHTRULES default:1 "V-VFR" "Z-VFR
   THEN IFR" "Y-IFR THEN VFR" "I-IFR"]`
 * That PDF field dropdown has options “I” “V” “Y” “Z”, not “V-VFR” “Z-VFR THEN 
   IFR” “Y-IFR THEN VFR” “I-IFR”.
 * You have to use pipes.
 * Try something like this?
 * `[select flight-rules include_blank "V-VFR|I" "Z-VFR THEN IFR|V" "Y-IFR THEN 
   VFR|Y" "I-IFR|Z"]`
