Google Forms is a standalone application for creating forms, and it would be nice if responses could be automatically transferred to a Google Doc after being completed electronically, as they can with Google Sheets. While this is a native way of creating forms on Google Docs, it is by no means the simplest. When you’re happy with how your document looks, feel free to print it out by going to the File menu and then clicking “Print.” Once you have the physical forms, you can distribute them as needed. Once you’ve played around with that, you can pretty up the Doc by adding images and such. This will open up a side menu on the right side where you can select from many options: rows, columns, alignment, and color. Once your questionnaire is filled out, you can adjust each table you’ve created by right-clicking on it and choosing “Table properties.” You can repeat this process as many times as necessary. Leave the cells blank if you want the respondent to fill out their information. Once the table is created, you can start filling out fields like First Name and Last Name. You can also use one of their table templates from the dropdown menu. Click on the "Insert" tab in the top menu, then click on "Table." You’ll need to select how many cells the table has by length and width. Once you’re in your Doc, you’ll need to include tables.
