How to Create a Printable Survey

A printable form needs the correct page size, margins and scale. Automatic printer scaling is the most common source of shifted fields.

Practical procedure

1. 1. Choose A4, A5, Letter or a custom size.
2. 2. Keep safe margins.
3. 3. Select 100 percent scale in print preview.
4. 4. Disable automatic browser headers and footers.
5. 5. Make a test print.

Common mistakes

In practice, the most common issues are: too many required fields, ambiguous labels, no test with a real document, relying on color alone, saving data without an explicit user decision. Each can be caught before publishing by using the preview and form checker.

Final review

• Does every field have a label?
• Are technical field names unique?
• Can the form be completed with a keyboard?
• Do error messages explain how to fix the issue?
• Was the selected export opened and checked?
