I have multiple forms with repeater fields that clients fill out. The data from each form transfers into its own PDF for that client.

I want to merge the form information into one PDF. The ultimate goal is to have one "long" PDF with all the data from all the forms for that client - formatted in our "pretty" format so that it can then be sent to a printing company. This is client specific and must not show another client's information. The printing company requires one PDF. Is this possible? I need a quote for accomplishing this if it's possible.F

This is what I currently have.

Form A information > Form A PDF

Form B information > Form B PDF

Form C information > Form C PDF

Form D information > Form D PDF

 

This is what I want.

Form A information + Form B information + Form C information + Form D information > ONE PDF

Bobby Clapp and I both answered, but the answers got "lost in space" so I'll try using the comment field. We both had the same answer. You can use Nested Views and the Formidable PDF addon to achieve what you want. I've done it a handful of times.

Judy - now your latest answer got lost. You said, "We have worked on the nested views and are now having a bit of a challenge getting the information to show on the PDF. We think we need to change a sharing permission setting but don't how to do that." That doesn't make sense to me, so please give explicit detail on what you're doing, what is failing and what errors you're getting.

There are only two ways I would be able to see "sharing permissions" an issue. You have the parameter of "public" in use in some way using the shortcode or your view is filtered in such a way that only the current user can see their own entries.
