Get Forms as HTML Email
The email format we use to send form submissions is flexible and supported by all desktop, web-based, and mobile email clients. Plain-text emails however become tedious to read and process for long forms and when form results must be printed for processing, e.g. for mortgage application forms, quote request forms, and many types of forms in the insurance and real estate industries.
FormSmarts users now have the option to have form submissions sent formatted as a table in a rich text (HTML) email. Depending on interest, we may also start to send form results as PDF attachments.
The main advantages of HTML emails are:
- Form reports are shorter
- Look is more appealing online and printed
- Email addresses, web links, and callto links (e.g for Skype) will launch the relevant application when clicked, as long as the field type as been set correctly.
To start receiving form results in HTML, change the Email Format to HTML Email in the Settings tab of your account. This option is initially only available to FormSmarts Pro members, but we plan to extend it to all users if there is demand, and pending review of performance implications.
We welcome your feedback about the ability to get form submissions in HTML format.
P.S. We will soon allow text comments in web forms,… stay tuned.

This is a vast improvement! The fonts are a little large yet, in the email and could be reduced a bit. PDF would also be a welcome option. Thank you!
When or how can we enlarge the HTML message? 20% bigger would be fine.
