We are getting many duplicate submissions and this is causing a lot of issues including charging people multiple times. I have tried a plug-in to limit submissions and that seemed to cause new and different problems. My hope was to redirect to another page upon submission. However, I need to show a link to the Gravity PDF document so the user can download their entry form after submission. I cannot figure out how to pass that URL over to the redirected page. It seems the PDFs are generated on the fly and I can’t construct a URL to pass to another page.  
I have searched for similar topics but don’t see any recent resolutions or anything new. Thanks in advance. I have a very frustrated customer. ☹

I can’t help with the duplicate submission issue, but can provide assistance with Gravity PDF. Have a look at the [Page Confirmation documentation](https://docs.gravitypdf.com/v6/users/shortcodes-and-mergetags#page-confirmation) on [GravityPDF.com](http://GravityPDF.com) for info about showing the PDF download link on a different page.

This resolved the issue and was by far the simplest thing I tried. Thanks.
