PDF to Google Form Converter

If you're searching for a PDF to Google Form converter, you're likely looking for a quick way to transform your static PDFs—like quizzes, surveys, or registration forms, into interactive online forms. While there isn’t a one-click solution yet, Formswrite.com is actively working on this feature. In the meantime, there’s a simple workaround using Google Docs as a bridge.

This guide will show you how to convert a PDF into a Google Form using free tools and explain how Formswrite can speed up the process.

Step-by-Step: Use a PDF to Google Form Converter (with Formswrite)

1. Check the Type of PDF

   • If the PDF is text-based, you can copy the content directly.

   • If it’s a scanned image or handwritten, use OCR (Optical Character Recognition) tools like Google Drive, Adobe Acrobat, or OnlineOCR to extract the text.

2. Copy Content into a Google Doc

   • Paste the extracted text into a new Google Doc.

   • Format the questions and answers clearly. Use consistent formatting for easier conversion later.

Example: What is the capital of Italy?

A. Madrid

B. Rome

C. Lisbon

1. Visit Formswrite.com
