Yes.  There is a control to save a form as PDF.  It needs to be saved to a SmartObject.

2- can you add a control on the form for user to download the form in ???? format to local PC

No.  Unless you use rules to first save it as a PDF to a SmartObject and then usethe attachment control to download it.

3- can you add a control on the form for user to click and export the K2 PDF sql table data for the related record to a PDF file on local PC.

I don't completely understand the question, but you could use the PDF control to first save the PDF to a SmartObject and then allow th user to access that file from the file attachment control.

4- any simple work around to extract the sql data from smartopbject?

In 5.2 there is a new rule for list views that can export the list  to Excel/CSV.  Otherwise, if you are storing the data in a database then any reporting tool can be used to extract the data.

 

thanks in advance for all the great ideas for such a function that is clearly in high demand.
