Biggest opportunity: Add “generate pdf”, “form pdf” and “generator” to your wp.org tags. You rank #4, #10 and #22 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 20K of 250.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,668 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Forms plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 5 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

What to do about it
- Add “generate pdf”, “form pdf” and “generator” to your wp.org tags. You rank #4, #10 and #22 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed these are the slots worth spending.
- One page off on “fluent forms”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Just wanted to say that compared to other solutions on wordpress, this is an affordable PDF generator, without caps or limits.

Many feature options

I’m really happy to use it but I would like to highlight two main things that don’t allow me to use it in full. The first thing is there isn’t a possibility for calculating and adding VAT to invoice and second is all descriptions in invoice are written in English while it would be useful to have also in German language. So I would suggest if this could be added in the plug-in. Let me know if it’s possible to do and when. Thank you in advance for understanding and help.

I have Fluent forms pro and made a lenghty form on my website which needs to be exported to pdf when filled in. This plugin first showed a fatal error when downloading the pdf but I found out when I went to integration that there were some fonts to be downloaded for the pdf to work. It was as simple as clicking the download fonts button and as soon as fonts were downloaded it worked like a charm. Thank you for developing all these awesome tools 🙂
