Only just started using this to create event briefs for our technicians. Before I was having issues exporting the results of the form to a PDF in an attractive way, and Form Publisher has fixed that with a very easy to use add-on!

I had been using this to create individual assignment sheets for students based on information in a Google Sheet. Last school year I was able to have my output files named with the student name and the date. Now they all just use the name of my template and the iteration number. Not helpful when I then have to open each one and then rename it! Looking elsewhere and will not be renewing.

The templates and the option to autogenerate are useful, if besides that we can still fiddle around with our own layouts. Take your sheet and swallow the management otherwise.
