TCPDF Action

Access form data in TCPDF action.

Overview

The issue occurs when trying to retrieve form field values or action data using standard CF methods within a PHP action before the TCPDF action.
Instead of retrieving data within the PHP action, directly return the value from the PHP action and reference it in the TCPDF template using the correct placeholder syntax.

i am using tcpdf action in chronoforms, i need to pre-process data using PHP, i tried using php action

for accessing field value tried this : $this->data("field_name", "default value");
for accessing function/Actions data tried this : $this->get("var_name", "default");

both of these are not working

print_r( $this->data("client_information_us_mail", "default value") );
print_r( $this->get("save_data5", "default") );
