Hi GeishaMx,
I went through the process of doing something with this that should help you. What it involves is making two completion events. One is for the creation of the PDF event and the other is for an Email event. The PDF completion event will create the PDF. The email completion event will create an email. Now you ask why the email completion event. If done right it will give you an email that has the PDF attached and or a link to the PDF. There are two tokens that you can use in the email to facilitate this: $(PDFLink
DF Type) and $(PDFAttach
DF Type). I have the email event be from and to the same place. I used my email address there so I could get the results. I suggest that you do the same thing for learning how to do this.
To test this out try creating a sample PDF event. I set it up so that the PDF and Email event fire based on a value that is not the value that I supplied in the setup. Then I made the value something odd like an address that wouldn't be created, like "10000 Way". This way the PDF and Email event will fire for anything I put in the form.
In doing this test it is crucial that you make the Email event's sort order larger than the email event's sort order. Sort Order is a setting that you will find while setting up the PDF and Email event in the settup of the Form Completion Event. To make things easy on yourself make the PDF sort order equal "0" which is probably it's default. Then make the Email event sort order equal "1" so the email event fires after the PDF event.
Good luck and let me know it goes.
