Disclaimer: Gravity PDF is a third-party add-on for the popular form-builder plugin Gravity Forms. The PDF plugin is developed by Blue Liquid Designs – an independent Australian business.
The canonical (primary) version of the free and open-source Gravity PDF plugin is now being distributed directly from GravityPDF.com. The canonical release includes an alternative update mechanism that receives new features, security updates, and bug fixes directly from our website.

How to Install Gravity PDF
If this is your first time installing Gravity PDF on a site you should follow these steps:
- Download the latest zip of the plugin
- Log in to your site
- Navigate to Plugins > Add New Plugin > Upload Plugin in the admin area
- Upload the zip file
- Activate the plugin
Extensions and Templates
Updates for premium Gravity PDF extensions and/or templates are not affected by this change, and you will continue receiving extension/template releases directly from GravityPDF.com.
Because extensions/templates enhance the core Gravity PDF plugin, it is recommended you complete the canonical release upgrade on your website (see above).
Plugin Slug and Text Domain
The canonical Gravity PDF plugin uses gravity-pdf for the plugin slug and text domain, departing from gravity-forms-pdf-extended used on WordPress.org. If you have created custom translations for Gravity PDF, or have custom code that relies on these values, you will need to adjust the slug/text domain to match.
Help and Support
If you have any questions or need assistance, please reach out to our friendly support team. We are more than happy to help you make a smooth transition to the canonical Gravity PDF release.
