Gravity Flow PDF Generator Extension is a workflow enhancement that allows administrators to add automated PDF creation steps into any point of a business process. This extension converts form entry data into documents the moment a specific workflow step is triggered. It ensures that critical documents like invoices, applications, or certificates are generated exactly when needed.
WPExclusive members get access to the PDF Generator as part of a full plugin and theme library — plans from $9.99/month. See the full Gravity Flow collection →
What Is Gravity Flow PDF Generator Extension?
Gravity Flow PDF Generator Extension is developed by Gravity Flow and is an automation plugin for WordPress. It adds a specialized step type to the core workflow engine, enabling the creation of documents without manual intervention. It belongs to the automation category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for business process management.
The plugin solves the problem of manual document generation by mapping form data directly into PDF templates using standard merge tags. It is designed for organizations requiring formal documentation at specific approval or processing stages.
Gravity Flow PDF Generator Extension Features
The feature set is built around providing a familiar interface for document design and automated triggering within a workflow.
Workflow Step Integration
The PDF Generator adds a new step type to the workflow builder that can be placed anywhere in the sequence. Administrators can configure these steps using conditional logic, ensuring PDFs are only created if specific form criteria are met. This allows for complex automation where documents are generated only after multiple levels of approval.
Template System and Merge Tags
The extension uses a template system designed just like a notification editor. It supports WordPress and Gravity Forms merge tags to pull data dynamically from the entry. This familiar setup means users do not need to learn a separate design interface to create professional documents.
Scheduling and Attachments
PDF steps can be scheduled to run at specific times or relative to other workflow events. Once generated, the PDF files can be automatically attached to email notifications sent in subsequent steps. This facilitates the immediate delivery of signed contracts or processed records to stakeholders.
