Hi John -
Any idea how to pass a Storyline number variable through to the PDF? I've got your solution working for text fields, but when I try to pass number variables, it seems to break it - or prevent the PDF from printing at all. I searched to see if there's some sort of "form.getNumberField" or ".setNumber", but I'm not finding anything. In my form, I want the number for each color to print in the box, but nothing works unless I comment out those lines - as you can see in my screenshot. (Thanks again for your help!)
I figured it out! You have to convert the numbers to strings, which I learned can be done simply with this code:
var num = 24;
var str = num.toString();
