In this tutorial, we will use the Squarespace New Submission as our sample data. Squarespace doesn’t store the New Form Submissions but instead offers several options on how you can collect the submitted data outside their platform. We will use the Google Drive option and store them in the Squarespace Google Sheet.

  1. Set Up Google Sheets
  2. Select Squarespace as the Spreadsheet
  3. Test the Trigger
  4. Use PDF.co PDF Filler Function
  5. Configure PDF Filler with the Google Sheet Data
  6. Test & Review
  7. Download PDF and Copy & Paste URL to Browser

Step 5: Configure PDF Filler with the Google Sheet Data

    • In the Source PDF field, enter the PDF URL.

I used the Sample PDF that I stored in my PDF.co File Storage. Check out this tutorial to see how the PDF.co built-in File Storage works.

    • In the Text Objects field, type in the x and y coordinates, page number, Google Sheet data, font size, and font name separated by a semi-color in this format: x;y;pageNumber;text;fontSize;fontName
