Aligning two forms and other buttons inline - twitter-bootstrap-3

Question

I have two forms, each form has multiple hidden fields and a submit button.
My goal is to align those forms with two other normal buttons horizontally (inline) using bootstrap.
Here's what I've tried so far:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6">
<a class="btn btn-primary" href="/employees/new">Add new Employee</a>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Search</button>
<form class="form-inline" action="../reports/pdf/employees" method="GET">
<input type="hidden" id="column" th:if="${param.column !=null}" name="column" th:value="${param.column}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.sort == null}" id="sort" name="sort" value="ASC">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.sort != null}" id="sort" name="sort" th:value="${param.sort}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.name!=null}" name="name" id="id" th:value="${param.name}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.surname!=null}" name="surname" id="surname" th:value="${param.surname}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.hiredate!=null}" name="hiredate" id="hiredate" th:value="${param.hiredate}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.birthdate!=null}" name="birthdate" id="birthdate" th:value="${param.birthdate}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.email!=null}" name="email" id="email" th:value="${param.email}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.address!=null}" name="address" id="address" th:value="${param.address}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.phone!=null}" name="phone" id="phone" th:value="${param.phone}">
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit">Print pdf report</button>
</form>
<form action="../reports/csv/employees" method="GET">
<input type="hidden" id="column" th:if="${param.column !=null}" name="column" th:value="${param.column}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.sort == null}" id="sort" name="sort" value="ASC">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.sort != null}" id="sort" name="sort" th:value="${param.sort}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.name!=null}" name="name" id="id" th:value="${param.name}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.surname!=null}" name="surname" id="surname" th:value="${param.surname}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.hiredate!=null}" name="hiredate" id="hiredate" th:value="${param.hiredate}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.birthdate!=null}" name="birthdate" id="birthdate" th:value="${param.birthdate}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.email!=null}" name="email" id="email" th:value="${param.email}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.address!=null}" name="address" id="address" th:value="${param.address}">
<input type="hidden" th:if="${param.phone!=null}" name="phone" id="phone" th:value="${param.phone}">
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit">Print csv report</button>
</form>
</div>

Answer 1

fix: add form-inline to second form
NB:
forms are block items - change to inline-block via css or style.
buttons still wrap, may need to change col-xs-6 to something wider
form.form-inline {
display: inline-block
}
