Output forms from mobile devices

The Salesforce mobile app allows you to output forms from mobile devices such as iPhones and iPads in the same way as on PC.

To use this feature, you need to display the preview screen from the print button which is placed in the action area of Lightning Experience and output forms using any output method.

Only forms can be output from the mobile app. You need to arrange the print button in advance.

You cannot perform the following operations on the preview screen on your mobile device:

  • You cannot output forms from the list view.

  • You cannot use a print button with both Execute Continuously and Do Not Show Preview Screen (icon_menu_Button.png SVF Button Settings - SVF Button Information - icon_setting.png - Action tab) enabled.

  • For iPhones, the control bar on the preview screen (the area in the red box in the image) will not be displayed. Swipe left/right to move pages, and pinch in/out to zoom in/out.

This completes the form output on the mobile device.
