    Saludos Equipo, espero que se encuentren bien.

    Tengo en mi cuenta unos cuantos formularios conectado con un PDF. Tengo el problema que cuando el usario completa el formulario y le da a enviar no siempre me llega a mi email el documento PDF adjunto.

    Algunos llegan o otros no. A que se debe?


    Agradezco la ayuda.

    Hi Carlos,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, our Spanish Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users at the moment. I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Spanish, let us know and we can have them do that. But, keep in mind that you'd have to wait until they're available again.

    Now, let me help you with your question. Is this the form in question? If so, I cloned your form and tested it to see if I could replicate the issue, but everything was working properly. Check out the screencast below to see my results:

    I see that you set the original PDF and the submission files to be attached to the notification email. In that case, if the total file attachments exceed 5 MB, the files will no longer be attached. This is a limitation set by our email service provider. So, you may be able to override this limit by setting up SMTP on your account to send your form emails using your own email server.

    Can you confirm if the affected submissions' total file size attachments did not exceed 5 MB? If the file size in the affected submissions is less than 5 MB but is still not attached, please let us know.

    Let us know if there’s anything else we can help you with.

    Thank you very much. Indeed, between the PDF and the image attached as ID, it exceeds 5 MB in most cases. I have just limited the attachment box so that the total does not exceed 5 MB in the form. I appreciate your help.
