    Hi MRcomercial,

    Yes, you can download the original PDF of your form without any data. Here’s how you can do it:

    1. Log into your Jotform account.
    2. Open the form you want to download the original PDF for.
    3. Go to PDF Editor.
    4. In PDF Editor, you can find the option to download the original PDF without any data.

    When i go to the PDF Editor there is no Download button like de demo sent.
    My original pdf was created outside Jotform, and uploaded to a form that was created to have all structure that my client was in need.
    Thi following image is exactly what i need to download, edit and then upload again so i can add a new field to ir.

    It shows to me this way:

    Hi MRcomercial,

    Unfortunately, once a PDF is uploaded, it cannot be downloaded again in its original format. However, you can work around this by removing the 'required' setting from all fields, allowing you to submit an empty form. After submitting, you can download the empty submission's PDF from Tables or Inbox. Here's how to do it:

    • In Form Builder, click on the first element.
    • Scroll down to the last element.
    • Press Shift on your keyboard, then click on the last element to select all fields.
    • Click Require and then Unrequire on the top toolbar.

    To submit an empty submission and download the PDF:

    • Submit an empty submission in your form.
    • In Jotform Tables, click on the three-dot icon beside the empty submission.
    • Click on Download, then select Original PDF.

    Please set your form to Public so I can screen record while doing it. However, if my instructions are clear, give it a try and let us know how it goes.
