In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] symbols instead of arabic textAs far as I can tell, these are rendering bugs in various PDF viewers. Adobe Acrobat Reader and Foxit Reader displays your PDF without any issues. I tried filling forms using other software and other PDF documents and I am having the same basic issue. Unfortunately, there is little I can do to fix this. If someone knows what the problem is exactly, let me know.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] symbols instead of arabic textI was able to reproduce the bug. It is unclear what the bug is. The data appears fine in the PDF form but not when it’s rendered on some viewers. I am still working on figuring out the problem. I’ll post an update as soon as I find something concrete.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] symbols instead of arabic textWhat do you mean by ‘became separated letters?’ I tested it with my PDF and it seems to work fine. Can you send me your PDF file to my email (admin at maximum dot software)?
Unfortunately, the UTF-8 flatten bug is a known issue with PDFtk. It remains unsolved. I have plans to switch to another tool, however, I don’t have an ETA.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] symbols instead of arabic textI’m sorry for not being too clear. What I mean is, re-save the original PDF and re-attach it to your CF7 form. Then, try filling it again. Make sure you DON’T have the flatten option selected.
Also, make sure you have the right font embedded in the PDF and used with the form fields. Additionally, make sure your PDF file is not encrypted.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] symbols instead of arabic textPlease try to re-save the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. Users have reported this issue seems to be cause by broken PDF files.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] one field in several placesNot sure about Safari. I think your question is out of scope of the plugin. This plugin doesn’t deal with data format. Here is the CF7 documentation about data format: https://contactform7.com/date-field/

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Watermark PDF Filler CF7Hi,
Pdf.Ninja is a non-free web API for manipulating PDF files. There is another non-free add-on which allows you to avoid using the API and fill PDF files directly on your web server, however, it is not designed to be used in shared hosting environments.
The only way to use the plugin for free and not have the Pdf.Ninja watermark is to write your own PDF service (see modules folder). Here is the Pdf.Ninja one. You will most likely need to install some PDF software on your server that would allow you to perform PDF manipulation in an automated way.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Eastern European Character MissingMake sure you don’t have the flatten option enabled. Make sure the PDF file has the right font that can display the characters properly. Make sure the PDF file is not encrypted.
I’ve had this problem with a number of people. Most people have solved this problem by rebuilding the file or re-saving it in Acrobat Pro.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Good … but….Sorry about the video. You are right, it needs work.
The use of the Pdf.Ninja API is needed because normally you don’t have any PDF software installed on your typical shared hosting.
However, if you have less strict settings on your web server, there is an add-on plugin (Enterprise Extension) that allows you to avoid having the subscription. You can find out more information from the link below,

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] how to integrate Pdf.Ninja API ProWhen you were in the process of placing an order for the Pro upgrade, you were asked for your existing API key. Make sure the key you specified is the same one that is set on the CF7 Integration page. If not, use the Edit button to change it.
There is no limit on the number of CF7 forms you can use this plugin with.
The PDFs should be attaching to emails. There is a feature which lets you not attach PDFs if there is no data (skip when empty). Make sure you don’t have that option enabled on your attached PDF.
If you are still having trouble, it may be possible there is some kind of incompatibility with some other plugin. If you are ok with it, I can take a look at your issue if you email me your wp-admin login to admin at maximum dot software.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Also struggling with radio buttons not mappingSorry for the late response. It’s great to hear you got it resolved. I am concerned about this possibly being a bug. If you encounter it again, let me know how to reproduce it and I will see if I can fix it in the plugin.

In reply to: [PDF Forms Filler for CF7] Not able to upload a pDFCan you send me your PDF file to admin at maximum dot software? Also, if it is ok with you, I would be interested in debugging the issue through your wp-admin. If you are alright with it, please send login details to admin at maximum dot software. Otherwise, can you try running
curl https://pdf.ninja/while you are logged in to your web server via SSH?Oh, sorry, apparently I didn’t read your post completely.
The enterprise extension fills PDFs on your server. There must have been some kind of issue with running the executables locally. I am not exactly sure why it is failing. I would have to look at it myself. If it starts working fine after a couple of times, maybe there is a problem with memory usage on your server. Maybe your server has a low amount of free memory, so, the first time it timed out due to swapping, the second time it worked but it was still swapping so it was slow. The next few times were fast due to it being done with swapping.
Can you see what the output of
free -mcommand is on your server?If you like, I can investigate this myself but you would need to provide me with credentials to your wp-admin. You can send it to my email, admin at maximum dot software.
