Hello,

I initially posted a reply in a post with a similar subject (https://answers.laserfiche.com/questions/72690/Form-looks-different-in-preview-compared-to-final-product-in-the-repository ) but as it is an old one (2015) I think it might be more relevant to create a new conversation.

 

I have a difference betwen my form on the preview mode and the one saved ad a TIFF in the repository (it was the same issue when saved as PDF).  I have tried to remove my CSS code for displaying fields side by side and it does not change anything (it was one of the thing suggested in the 2015 post).

I have attached a view of the preview form and the saved one in the repository. The yellow areas on the Preview doc are where there are some differences. At the bottom of the page, the "Load status" was supposed to be hidden by a field rule. It is not in the preview but it is in the saved document.

In fact, I am quite happy with most of the difference in the saved PDF as we were looking to removed the grey background on the field areas, the grey case with '.' before each photo, etc.

But I would like to understand why there are differences, as we will probably have the same issue with other forms in the future and may not be that happy with the differences...

 

In addition, I might mention I have another question on this form as It might impact the behaviour on it as I will add some coding. I want to remove the name and size of the uploaded photo. I have tried a solution from this post

And I had exactly the same issue than one user : when I directly paste the code in the CSS text area, the SUBMIT button disappears. I am not familiar with CSS coding so do not know how to  "Make sure that you do not have .Submit, button, input, or other selectors open before the additional CSS code."

Sorry for the long post ! Thanks in advance for any help !
