## 描述

EntryFoundry is a visual PDF builder and PDF generator for Formidable Forms. Create
branded certificates, invoices, receipts, and reports from form entries without 
writing code.

Arrange fields and design elements on a page, preview the document with a real Formidable
entry, and publish it without writing a custom PDF template.

#### Included in EntryFoundry Free

 * Visual drag-and-drop PDF builder inside WordPress.
 * Live previews using an entry from the selected Formidable form.
 * Formidable field values placed directly onto the document canvas.
 * Heading, text, image, shape, manual-table, and entries-table elements.
 * Three starter designs: Certificate, Document / Report, and Receipt / Simple Invoice.
 * Fixed-page designs and flowing reports that continue onto additional pages.
 * A4 portrait and landscape layouts with background colors and Media Library images.
 * Typography, positioning, sizing, alignment, table styling, and image-fit controls.
 * Private, capability-gated, and signed-token document access modes.
 * Shortcodes for PDF downloads, embedded PDF viewing, and inline HTML output.
 * Shortcodes that can be placed on pages or inside Formidable Views.
 * Automatic PDF generation after a new entry is created, with support for email
   attachments.
 * A Generate / Test PDF screen for checking a template and entry before publishing.

#### EntryFoundry Pro roadmap

EntryFoundry Pro is in development and is not yet available on WordPress.org. The
planned Pro edition builds on the Free visual builder with:

 * QR code and barcode elements with entry-aware values.
 * Embedded shortcode elements with Formidable entry-token resolution.
 * Conditional element visibility.
 * Advanced date formatting.
 * Repeater fields rendered as tables or lists, including multi-page flow and totals.
 * Advanced entries-table controls, row visibility, and value-column calculations.
 * Invoice, ID Card, and Ticket / Pass document profiles.
 * Eleven additional premade designs for certificates, reports, invoices, ID cards,
   and event tickets.
 * Flow trailers that keep totals, signatures, QR codes, and footers after variable-
   length content.

Planned features may change before the Pro release. No Pro purchase is required 
to use the Free features listed above.

#### Where documents can appear

EntryFoundry templates can provide:

 * A PDF download link.
 * An embedded PDF viewer.
 * Inline HTML document output.
 * A document inside a Formidable View.
 * A PDF generated after form submission and attached to the request-time email 
   workflow.

EntryFoundry is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, 
or sponsored by Strategy11 or Formidable Forms. Formidable Forms is a trademark 
of its respective owner.

### Getting Started

#### Create your first document

 1. Open **EntryFoundry > Add New EntryFoundry Template**.
 2. Choose Certificate, Document / Report, or Receipt / Simple Invoice.
 3. Select the Formidable form that supplies the document data.
 4. Choose an entry to use for the live preview.
 5. Add or reposition fields, text, images, shapes, and tables.
 6. Set the page background and document access mode.
 7. Save the template.
 8. Place the generated shortcode on a page or in a Formidable View.

#### Test a PDF manually

Go to **EntryFoundry > Generate / Test PDF**, enter the EntryFoundry template ID
and Formidable entry ID, and click **Generate PDF**. Use the resulting download 
link to inspect the document.

#### Shortcode examples

The shortcode shown beside each template creates a PDF download link:

    ```
    [entryfoundry_template id="123" entry="[id]"]
    ```

Render the document as inline HTML:

    ```
    [entryfoundry_template id="123" entry="[id]" output="html"]
    ```

Embed the PDF viewer:

    ```
    [entryfoundry_template id="123" entry="[id]" output="view"]
    ```

You can also use the dedicated output shortcodes:

    ```
    [entryfoundry_download id="123" entry="[id]" label="Download PDF"]

    [entryfoundry_view id="123" entry="[id]"]
    ```

Replace `123` with the EntryFoundry template ID. In a Formidable View, `[id]` resolves
to the current entry ID.

### Privacy

EntryFoundry Free generates and renders documents on your WordPress site. It does
not send Formidable entry data to an external EntryFoundry document-generation service.

## 常见问题

### Does EntryFoundry require Formidable Forms?

Yes. EntryFoundry is specifically built to turn Formidable Forms entries into documents.

### How do I create a PDF from a Formidable Forms entry?

Create an EntryFoundry template, select the Formidable form and a preview entry,
arrange the document in the visual builder, then publish it with a shortcode. EntryFoundry
hydrates the template with the selected form entry when it generates the PDF.

### Do I need EntryFoundry Pro to build PDFs?

No. EntryFoundry Free includes the visual builder, three starter designs, standard
fields and elements, flowing reports, shortcodes, secure document links, PDF generation,
and email-attachment support.

### Which Formidable fields work in the Free version?

Fields made available by the base Formidable Forms field registry can be placed 
in Free documents. Fields identified by Formidable as Pro-only are clearly marked**
Pro** in the EntryFoundry builder and are reserved for the planned EntryFoundry 
Pro integration.

### Can EntryFoundry generate certificates and invoices?

Yes. EntryFoundry Free includes starter designs for certificates, documents, reports,
receipts, and simple invoices. Each design can be customized with Formidable field
values, text, images, shapes, and tables.

### Can I show a PDF instead of only providing a download?

Yes. Use `output="view"` to embed a PDF viewer or `output="html"` to render the 
hydrated document as HTML.

### Can I use EntryFoundry inside a Formidable View?

Yes. Add the generated EntryFoundry shortcode to a Formidable View and use `entry
="[id]"` so each row uses its current entry.

### Can generated PDFs be attached to Formidable emails?

Yes. When a published EntryFoundry template is active for the submitted form, EntryFoundry
generates the PDF after entry creation and makes it available to the request-time
WordPress email workflow.

### Where do I find the template ID?

Go to **EntryFoundry** in WordPress. The template list includes a complete shortcode
containing the template ID.

### Is EntryFoundry Pro available now?

Not yet. The Pro roadmap describes features currently being prepared and does not
represent a purchasable WordPress.org add-on at this time.
