In short: Convert consumer goods PDF and Word templates into Google Forms in your Drive. Doc2Form drafts structure from files up to 5 MB so teams stop retyping trade and retail intake, consumer panels and product tests, vendor and co-packer onboarding. Not a replacement for an ERP or retail execution system. First form free.
Consumer goods packets should not mean rebuilding every Form
Consumer goods teams usually keep the official wording in a PDF or Word file that went through review. The digital experience people want is a Google Form link. In the middle is someone retyping fields, which introduces mistakes and version drift.
Doc2Form reads a digitally authored file and maps sections into a Form you finish in Google Forms. Common starting points: trade and retail intake; consumer panels and product tests; vendor and co-packer onboarding. Describe mode helps when you need a short survey without a source file.
Based on a sample of 1,775 Google Forms generated by Doc2Form users, containing 55,761 questions across 47 languages. That is an average of 31 questions per form - roughly 21 minutes saved per form versus rebuilding each question by hand in the Forms editor (assuming ~40 seconds per question).
Where responses sit, and what we do not claim
Every Form lands in Google Drive like any form you build yourself. Link responses to Sheets when you need exports. Doc2Form is not an ERP or retail execution system. Blurry scans and complex tables may need a cleanup pass. Collect only what your policy allows.

Common questions
Does this replace our primary Retail Execution or CRM system like Repsly, Shelvspace, or Salesforce?
No. Doc2Form is a productivity bridge for the "capture" and "discovery" phases that precede or follow the formal retail record.
Can field reps or brokers upload photos of shelf displays or documents through the Form?
Yes. Once the Form is generated in Google Forms, you can enable "File Upload" questions.
How do we handle multi-language retail markets?
Doc2Form imports the structure of your primary-language PDF. For firms serving multilingual markets, we recommend duplicating the generated Form and translating the labels into the target languages.
Can we use "Describe mode" for a flash stakeholder poll or event RSVP?
Absolutely. If you need a fast pulse on broker interest for a new program or a quick answer on a trade-show RSVP, you can type "3-question survey about [Topic] with guest name, meal preference dropdown, and reason text" into Describe mode.
