Ever tried to convert a simple HubSpot form into a PDF? If you have, you've likely encountered the frustrating limitations of HubSpot's workflow marketplace - a problem that's been lingering for years without a proper solution.

The Real-World Problem HubSpotters Face

A recent Reddit thread perfectly illustrates this ongoing issue. A HubSpot user asked a straightforward question: "Can I convert the answers to HubSpot form into a PDF extract?" Something so basic shouldn't require technical gymnastics, yet here we are.

The suggestions that poured in? Zapier integrations. No-code tools. Even Puppeteer (seriously??). While these tools are fantastic in their own right, should you really need to "dive into tech land" just to generate a simple PDF from form data?

The Current "Solutions" Aren't Cutting It

When exploring third-party options, you'll find a few services that appear decent on the surface. But there's always a catch:

• None are truly HubSpot native
• Most require signing up for yet another $50/month subscription
• Others charge per-document fees (around $0.80 per PDF)

HubSpotters Deserve Better

This situation simply shouldn't exist. For a platform that prides itself on being comprehensive and user-friendly, this gap in functionality is both surprising and disappointing.

HubSpot users deserve a more robust workflow marketplace—one that addresses common business needs without forcing users to cobble together complex solutions or pay premium prices for basic functionality.

A Better Solution on the Horizon

I'm taking this challenge head-on. The workflow marketplace needs meaningful improvement, and implementing a simple form-to-PDF conversion action is exactly the kind of practical enhancement that would make a real difference for everyday HubSpot users.

Because your marketing automation platform should make your work easier—not create new obstacles to overcome.

Stay tuned for updates on this solution. HubSpot users shouldn't have to jump through hoops for functionality that should be standard.
