Thank you so much sir. I have planned to do with words connector and I only know in last minutes that connector need premium license and our company do not have. this video save my life to print form with signature. Really Appreciate. Thank you
Nice Waiyan! I have other videos on strategies to get around the premium licenses too, but usually signatures mean $$$. Glad you got it to work for your company.
Thank you for this brilliant video on PDF signature capture using pen input and found it to be very helpful and for answering my previous question on this topic. :)😀 I am currently using the method you explained in a previous video, which involves a Word template and quick parts. Power Apps populates the template and uses a flow to update the file content. The flow then uploads the document to SharePoint, converts it to PDF, and emails it to the user. However, I am not sure how to add the signature method from this to the Word template. Maybe a good question for another video 😉
Hi Stewart! From doing the quick parts and adding a signature... Hmmm... My only thought is instead of doing a signature is signing through metadata some way using Power Automate or Docusign. I don't know about adding a signature graphic to an existing document once you are going through the quick part method. That's the old-school, but still great way to do it method!😄
@@andrewhess123 in livestreams result is not the only important thing, how do you approach the problem and how you fix them in real time will guide others to do the same.
I want to create a 6 page document. Is there a way to merge multiple containers into one PDF using this method? I was thinking about doing a scrollable single container but not sure whether the pages will get page broke correctly. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
The PDF function is in preview, you could maybe combine your containers using collections or variables. There are other ways also including Power Automate or Azure Functions. Set( varPDF, PDF( Container, {ExpandContainers: true} ) );
@@andrewhess123 so what I found today was that building a document from multiple containers and fields wasn’t the best as the PdF when saved in Sharepoint took ages to load. So what I did was create a scrollable container added in 5 HTML controls and set those controls to the size of an A4 Page and got Chat GPT to convert all m designs into HTML and then the print function worked great 😂
Hi Work, my only thought right now is the PDF() function is still in preview we should probably wait for Microsoft to take it out of preview to see if that fixes the issue on iOS devices.
This works great for me with the Print command. When I go to save it in Sharepoint, the image is moved to a second page. Not sure why that would happen, any ideas?
No sooner than I post I figured it out. In case anyone else has a similar issue, the container was too close to the screen's border and that caused it to drop onto a 2nd page. Once I added a small border by resizing the container, it saved the PDF file as a single page

I've been working on doing this with a pdfviewer for at least a couple days.....Thank you so much!!! This works!!!
Woohoo! Nice Kristi glad it's working for you!

I wish you have live events. Then we can see how entire app or part of it created from scratch without jumpcuts.
Hi Murat, this is something I could do in the future. I did not know people wanted this. Thank you Murat.

Hi Andrew, thank you for the tutorial, do you have any idea to generate PDF contain chart?
Hi nindya, this is a good question. I have not done this yet, would be fun to try.
@@andrewhess123 i tried it, in screen it’s work but once I generated it in PDF, it turns out to blank or black :(
@@nindyasofiana hmmm, yeah I wonder. I do know that the PDF function is still a preview feature.
Excelente video!
Gracias mi amigo!

Hi Thanks, is there a way to tell me what html code should I use if I wanted to add a right line a total and bottom disclaimer of the html thanks
