- Опубликовано: 28 май 2024
- Learn how to create fillable forms in Google Docs including form elements like text fields, dropdown list selections, and checkboxes. In this step-by-step tutorial we will create a fillable form in Google Docs from scratch. See how to insert and place a logo on your form, then how to use tables and borders to create fillable text boxes on your Google Doc. You'll see how to insert and set up dropdown list selections and even format the color options. Then you'll learn the two types of checkbox checklists in Google Docs to either tick or select a checklist item, or how to set it up to cross out the list item selected. Finally, we will create a large open text box on the form.
It is important to note that fillable forms in Google Docs are not able to be protected or restricted to filling in forms, which means users may inadvertently edit, modify, or even delete parts of the document. If you need to protect the form, you'll want to convert it to a PDF and add PDF fillable form elements, or create the form in another tool, like Microsoft Word, Google Forms, or Microsoft Forms.
Also, unless you have Google Workspace, you won't be able to save your Google Docs form as a template. However, you can make a copy of the form file each time you want to fill in a new form.

Thank you for this tutorial. My question is once Im done making my form, how do I save this and in what format, in order for my clients to complete this form. I emailed it to myself and it didnt work to complete it. The drop downs didnt work or the check marks didnt appear.
Hello - if you create this in Google Docs, it will save as a .gdoc and the functionality may not work if you open the document in Word or another application. This is best if your users will also be opening in Google Docs. However, if your users use Word, it is best to build the form in Word, or as an online form (either Google Forms or Microsoft Forms). Here is my playlist on creating fillable forms in different applications. Hope this helps!: ruclips.net/p/PLb80efKTbWuOe1LfFMNExEabkRkB5ehcv Thanks for watching and best of luck!
@@SharonSmith Thank you
its not clear at all..... this is starting from an existing form. I'm starting from nothing.... where do I start from.
Hello - the intro to the video gives an overview of the final form elements we will build from scratch. You can jump to timestamp 01:03 in this video to see how to get started from a blank document. You can find all timestamps for this lesson in the expanded video description so you can jump to the areas you are interested in. Good luck with your form!
This IS NOT a Google Forms tutorial, it's creating a form in Google Docs. Just to get that straight.
Correct - the Title and Thumbnail for this video is how to create fillable forms in Google Docs. If you are looking to create a form in Google Forms, here is a different tutorial: ruclips.net/video/VBFOOC8enVI/видео.html Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
