The goal of this external module (ext-mod) is to streamline the creation of pdf files in REDCap when it needs to be automatically attached to an upload field in the same project. In it simplest form, it can create a pdf-version of a pre-determined REDCap instrument, when specific fields have been completed. You have full control over which fields must be completed before the pdf file is created, as well as selecting the desired upload field. Additionally, the ext-mod wouldn't be complete without a feature to remove the label "remove file and send it" from the upload field, and server side processing of large pdf files (recommended for instruments with in-line images). Finally, you can use its multi use-case functionality to defined several conditions, each generating their respective pdf file.
