Web Forms

While regular Forms can be used to collect informations from registered users and produce formatted documents, the Web Forms can be used to collect informations and answers from everybody, without the need to be a LogicalDOC user.

You can use this feature to launch campaigns and collect answers from a huge audience and elaborate your statistics.

Everything starts from a regular Form for which you enable the Web capabilities:
