Convert images and PDF forms into templates
Learn how to convert images and PDF forms into templates via the web app and mobile app.
Why convert existing forms?
Converting existing forms or checklists and adding them to SafetyCulture improves data accessibility and storage. This helps you collect and analyze your data and streamline your organization's workflows. You can cut down on paper and storage costs and significantly reduce your team's turnaround time.
We understand that the template might not always be exactly what you're after. We encourage you to edit your template further and add your own finishing touches to create the best version of your forms for your team.
You can convert images (JPEG or PNG) up to 10MB or PDF files up to 20 MB.
What you'll need
If you have a Word or Excel file, you can convert it to an image or PDF or upload your document for our customer enablement team to convert the template for you manually.
