Form Submit Convert to pdf, png, or jpg, then email to me

Currently customers fill out form, then print it as a pdf, then they email form to me as pdf.
I setup email notification after they clicked print form or if they clicked on my email button.
I got the emails from both actions but no csv data. But I'm not wanting just data.
I would like to get form converted after they click submit, converted to a pdf, png, jpg and sent by email to me.
Been researching this for days, but I not a programmer. Research has lead me to html2canvas, html2pdf, mphp, fphp, and others.
Customers can't do Print form to pdf on their cell phones, so they take a couple of screen shots and then email those to me. It sucks

Just want a submit button that converts form to a pdf, png, jpg, etc and then emails it to me...
If I need to pay for this I will, gladly, just point me to the right person. PLEASE
Really was hoping you had an extension for this or a java script to just add to site.

The post should be more appropriate if administrators allocate it to the professionals to hire section

The thing you want is not something easy especially when you are using wwb's own form processing script which sends form data in plain text and not as pdf. But if it can get altered then you may get the solution you need. Still, I would say it would require extensive testing.

You can contact us from the links below.

There is no standard solution for this, because this is a very specific requirement.
You can still use the standard form tools to create the layout in WWB, but the processing requires a custom script.

If you do not know how to implement custom scripts yourself then maybe you can post a request here
