    Hi, I have a date picker that works perfect but i need it to pull the month to the pdf not the number let's say June instead of 1 -6-2024.

    I have a 2nd question in the year it shows 2024 and my pdf already has 20.... can it be changes to only show the 24 part?

    Hello Edugrid,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. You can change the format of the date showing in the Original PDF with a workaround. Let me show you how:

    1. Add the Form Calculation widget and click on its Gear icon.
    2. On the three horizontal dots, choose dateString().
    3. Then, click Add Field and select the Date Picker field. Date picker to show month in pdf no number  Image 1 Screenshot 40

    Result:

    Now, you can replace the date picker field with the form calculation widget when mapping fields into the Original PDF: Date picker to show month in pdf no number  Image 3 Screenshot 62

    You can repeat the same steps for the end date, you can hide the form calculation field so it won't be visible to your users. As for your other question, I've moved that to a new thread. I will answer you here.

    Give it a try and let us know if you need any help.
