SmartSimple's UTA PDF Parser allows for fillable forms in PDF format to be downloaded from SmartSimple, completed offline and then re-uploaded to create records within SmartSimple.

Instructions on how to configure a new PDF Parser are available at this page: UTA PDF Parser - Configuration Instructions. A video describing the PDF Parser functionality has also been prepared and is available here: UTA PDF Parser - Video

The following is a run-through of the UTA PDF Parser functionality as implemented on a demonstration copy of SmartSimple.
