    I have a client that needs the following:

    • Prepaid end-users need to access an online form to enter text, check boxes, and upload picture (e.g. jpg, gif, etc.)
    • Need ability for each of those users to print the resulting PDF after submit (needs to look very similar to Sample PDF Printout)
    • As this site has been online for quite some time, existing client data is would need to be able to import in some fashion to the new application

    What EXACTLY would be involved to do this within PDF Forms Filler for Contact Form 7?

    The PDF Forms Filler for CF7 plugin integrates with Contact Form 7 plugin. It does not provide any of the features you listed. It only allows filling of the PDF forms with data and attaching it to the email message. You will need some additional plugins to be able to do everything you listed. The features you are describing are outside of the scope of the PDF Forms Filler for CF7 plugin.

    1. Prepaid end-users access private form

    You will probably need to do this using standard WordPress features.

    2. Client data

    You will probably need to use a plugin that saves Contact Form 7 submissions into a database. Maybe something like https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/cf7-database/ or similar. This plugin will probably need to have some access controls. It will need to have data import functionality as well. It will need to save attachments with the submissions.

    3. Print PDFs

    Users will be able to print PDFs by opening them. If you want anything more fancy, you will probably need to do some custom coding.
