Converting Paper to Digital Forms
Ok, so paper forms have many disadvantages. However, many companies still use them. This fact has led to the development of a few solutions:

An example of such a solution is a fillable PDF, which takes a scanned copy of your paper form and makes it fillable.
This is a great solution, however it is not a responsive one. The original paper form is usually large and does not fit your mobile screen without the use of scroll bars.

Another solution for this, offered by FormTitan, is the paper form mapping. This allows you to still get your signed paper form by using a responsive online form. In contrast to the previous solution, this digital form, which is filled online does not look like original form. It is a responsive online form you can create in any layout and design you want.
All you have to do is scan your original paper form, create an online form and map it to your scanned form.
