Real fields, not a picture of a form
The starter includes named fields for contact details, address, reference and date plus two checkboxes. When saved as PDF, supported controls remain interactive for the person completing the document.
Labels are separate editable text, so you can rename a question without turning the whole form into an image.
- Single-line and multiline text fields
- Checkboxes with clear labels
- Reference, signature and date areas
- Interactive PDF export
Ask only for information you need
Remove irrelevant fields and write labels that explain the expected answer. Mark a field required only when the workflow genuinely cannot continue without it.
For personal or sensitive information, explain who receives the form, why the data is needed, how it will be kept and how the person can ask questions.
Test the completed form
Export the PDF, open it in another reader and complete every field. Check keyboard order, multiline behaviour, checkbox state, signatures and printing.
DOCX is useful when colleagues need to revise the wording; use PDF for the interactive form people will fill in.
