I'm trying to use values selected out of my InfoPath form to be displayed in a nicely manner on a PDF..For example a user selects a contact that is pulled from a database..and then that contacts information is displayed in a pdf once they hit submit on the infopath form..any ideas how to do this?
Check out my codeplex project IP2HTML. It allows you to convert an InfoPath form/view to HTML (you can do the HTML to PDF conversion with any 3rd party tool you like). Click here to see how it's used within a IP 2010 form.
In your case, i would create a custom view that displays only the selected contact, and when the user clicks submit the pdf is generated. This, however, requires code within your form.

I want an spfx made webpart that I've made be able to send an email (I'm using IEmailProperties at the moment) which provides a link to a modal form?
For example:
User clicks button in webpart, form loads.
User fills out form and submits it to SP list.
Form sends email on submission. Email has a link to the actual item created, so when the user clicks the provided email link, it opens up the modal form.
I would presume that the user would HAVE to be sent to the SP page where the webpart is unconditionally, but would it be possible to open up the modal corresponding to the SP list item?
Is this feature available in SharePoint framework, because if it isn't, compared to something like InfoPath 2013 or PowerApps it's quite a limitation.
I've researched this with several shallow Google searches and on gitHub for any premade stuff, but alas there is nothing that I've spotted.
I've been told IT IS possible:
"Yeah, they’d have to visit the page. Email clients don’t do JavaScript so you can’t really do interactive stuff there. If you want to take them directly to a page that then displays a modal, that’s plenty possible though. (e.g. display the modal based on if the URL contains a certain string)"
But wouldn't know how to do the above, can anyone start me on the right path?

In the email, pass a query string containing the item ID/list ID etc of the item, then have the webpart read the See: How can I get query string values in JavaScript? If your values exist. If they do exist, then open the modal using some kind of framework like bootstrap or fluent UI. You can write your own form using PnPjs or use an iframe potentially to display the OOTB edit form.
Additionally, you can link to any page in SharePoint provided you use an extension instead of a webpart to host the modal. You can install extensions tenant wide, and have it listen for the query string.
I'm not sure if it's possible to do what I'm hoping, but maybe I'll get lucky. It has to do with setting form fields in a SharePoint 2010 list, using InfoPath forms.
Basically, I have one list with requests from several vendors. Each vendors has their own requests page which is a Web Part Page with one web part: a list of submissions with a custom view applied that filters it only to them. This is a (clunky but functional) way to ensure each vendor only sees their own requests. To submit a new request, they click on the "Add Item" link at the bottom of the list web part. At this point, a customized InfoPath form pops up, and they add their request.
In the form, one of the fields is "Vendor". What I would like to achieve is to have the InfoPath form read something on the page which tells it which vendor's page it was called from and pre-select that vendor (I could then disable the control so they couldn't change it). I am happy to alter the calling page as needed, or to configure the InfoPath form (can you custom-configure GET or POST values or anything to define a field that way?).
Any help would be very appreciated.
I have process that I want to do that I'm not sure it is possible. I am using iTextSharp to generate and populate a PDF with collected data that a user has entered in a previous screen.
Then the PDF is saved to a SQL Server Database as binary data. Then it is pulled back for the user to view in the browser if they would like too.
It is possible to generate the PDF, do not flatten the form, and then allow the user to edit areas that may have not been prefilled by the users information. Then I will need to be able to save this back to the database.
I have some findings on using a adobe submit button that submits the pdf to a URL that would collect the data, but I want to know if iTextSharp is capable of this. Using ASP.NET or another example.
I do not want to save the form field information, but save the whole pdf to the database with some sort of submit button.
Is it possible to send file with form as normal file upload? When I check a file field it is always empty, and I need to send it with form data in one call. IS that possible?
There might be better answers out there, but I ended up solving this by following steps.
Having 2 forms on the page. One for file upload and one for other form data.
Format both forms using CSS so that user gets look and feel of one form.
Have only one div (which looks like button) to submit. Hide the actual form's submit button, if you are using them (I don't. Because I preprocess data and then send by ajax)
Once user submits forms (by clicking the dummy button), Using JS programatically click the file upload button.
Optional Once that call is finished, if there are no errors only then continue.
Submit the form with other form data.
The advantage I had in this approach was that I could have more control over user's form data as well as my file upload's settings. Because I had some settings (like max number of files and max file size) were dependent on user's form entry.

RSForm Pro has the feature to download the form submission in PDF form. You will have to specify the layout of the PDF in the extension itself.
