It would be nice to have the ability to print a Smartsheet form created to MS Word and PDF (form view layout, not smartsheet view layout) after someone has submitted the form.

Some workarounds I found for not printing a form submission directly:
You can print a Smartsheet row to PDF using the row's right-click menu, Print. (For a PDF file use a "printer" like Save as PDF or Microsoft Print to PDF). That method creates a document with just the one row's information, it looks like a printout of a two-column table (field name and the row's answer for that field). You can hide columns and tell it not to print hidden columns, but otherwise it does print all fields without an option to pick and choose specific ones.
You can create a more customized PDF attachment to print by using the "Generate Document" option in sheet automations/workflows. You have to upload a PDF with fillable fields, map the relevant sheet fields to the fillable fields, and then the automation will make a filled-in PDF for each row it's triggered on, and add the filled-in PDF as an Attachment on the row. Then you would need to print the attachment. So you could make a custom PDF on the row that only shows the completed form fields. I don't think there's a way to generate a Word doc on each row. https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2482492-build-workflow-automate-document-generation
I've also heard of people using the "send me a copy" email or customized Alert emails to print the email to PDF.
I agree this would be a nice feature. Our current workaround is to have the form sent to an internal email and then someone has to take the attachment from the email and attach it to the coordinating row. We use a form to do a site assessment and we want the compiled assessment as an attachment to the homeowner's row.
Although we are extremely proficient when it comes to reducing load on our smartsheets (we use pivot, data mesh and data shuttle extensively), we still find ourselves hitting capacity limits (mostly because of the number of columns in conjunction with some pretty complex formulas). Breaking up data between sheets and…
As the smartsheet admin for Europe, it would be extremely helpful to be able to view all Automations / recurring emailed reports in one place as opposed to sheet level. It's almost impossible to ensure everything is working correctly / delete recurring emailed reports without this.
It would be extremely beneficial to have the ability to manually assign colors to individual projects within the Timeline View. Currently, project colors are automatically determined by the Dashboard Theme, which limits flexibility and makes it challenging to visually differentiate projects in a meaningful way. Allowing…
