    Hi Keven,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, our French 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 French, 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. I'm sorry you are having issues with this. To clarify, are you referring to your form 230414975323050? If so, this issue can be easily resolved by creating a new PDF document in the PDF Editor. Here's how to do it:

    1. Go to the form's PDF Editor page.Downloaded PDF documents are not properly arranged Image 1 Screenshot 50
    2. On the PDF Editor page, click the + New PDF button on the top left corner.
    3. Select the New PDF Document option in the menu.

    4. A new PDF document tab should be created next to your existing PDF document. You may delete the previous PDF document if needed.

    5. You can redownload the PDF documents in Jotform Tables. Please keep in mind that if you did not delete the previous PDF document, you should have two PDF documents to choose from and download.

    If that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, can you explain a bit more so I can help you better? 

    Give it a try, and let us know how it goes.

    Hello its not what im talking about.

    I don’t what to use pdf creator to create a pdf because when I open it its show me to much stuff that I don’t need


    Usually when I push download pdf its download the pdf in the same order that form is but since a little while let say number just to make you understand .

    Row 2 6 and 14 are after the conclusion of the form so nothing professional.


    I don’t want to take time each time to find each thing that not in the proper order and fix it whit the editor I just want it to be in the same order





    Thank to get back to me whit a solution

    Hi Keven,

    Thanks for getting back to us. It seems that your PDF document is not up to date. So, if you still want the older version of the PDF or want to rearrange the fields. You must update the PDF document to ensure that the fields are properly organized based on what you need. The simplest approach is to follow my colleague Victorino's suggestion for creating a new PDF and then editing it to remove any unnecessary data. Let me show you how:

    • In PDF Editor, select the fields you do not want to include in the PDF and click the Trash can icon beside them to remove them.

    Hi Keven,

    Thanks for getting back to us. I understand how frustrating this is for you, and I’ll do my best to help you. Can you perhaps send us some screenshots of the difference between the PDF that you are currently receiving and the PDF that you were previously getting? This guide will show you how to do that.

    Once we hear back from you, we'll be able to move forward with a solution.

    Hi Keven,

    Thanks for getting back to us. I checked your form's PDF editor, and it looks like you've manage to fix the order of the elements by creating a new PDF Document. I don't see the fields in your screenshot displayed on that area upon looking at your document. Here's how it looks now:

    Can you confirm if you still require any assistance with this? If you're still getting issues with the elements displayed on the wrong place, let us know and we'll be happy to check it for you.

    Reach out to us again if you need any more help.
