Forms are very useful for collecting information, thus restricting users so that they can only fill in the required information without being able to change the format of the document. To begin the process of constructing a form, you will need either a new document, an existing document, or a template to base the form on. Once the basics of the form have been entered, you will need to add content such as drop-down lists of choices, textboxes, checkboxes, date fields, and much more.
