Print forms with or without hidden fields

Bookem allows you to print client forms with hidden fields included or excluded. This guide shows you how to manage field visibility and print completed forms.

Why use hidden fields when printing

Hidden fields help you control what appears on printed or PDF versions of your forms. This can be especially useful when:

  • The form includes large blocks of instructional text that aren't needed on printouts

  • You want to hide headers or section titles to simplify the layout

  • You’re trying to reduce the number of pages to save paper

Control which fields appear when printing

  • Go to the relevant form and click Edit

  • Click on the field you want to adjust

  • Scroll to the bottom of the field settings

  • Toggle Show when printing on or off

Note: If a field does not have this toggle, it means the field can not be hidden and will be printed by default

Print a filled-in form with hidden fields

  • Go to Forms in the main menu

  • Find and open the relevant form

  • Click on Responses

  • Navigate to the client’s filled-in form
