Handouts

For years we’ve had a steady stream of prospective customers ask about converting their forms and templates from HotDocs to use one of TheFormTool programs instead. Based on several comments made over the years in the Customer Reviews section of our website, we’ve been comfortable saying, “It’s easy.”

In the last six months what had been a steady stream of inquiries has grown into a river and some of the firms involved have become sizable. So we thought we’d ask our good friend Bill Cutchin, the founder of DocAssembly Guru, to create comprehensive instructions on exactly how to make the conversion easy. Bill’s the right person to ask. Over the years he’s been an expert on HotDocs, creating forms and consulting on building libraries for firms using HotDocs. Six years ago he decided to make a change and set about becoming an expert with our programs. Within a year, Bill became one of the first experts awarded the Certified Creator: Intelligent Documents award signifying the highest level of knowledge and experience with our programs. Bill is the author of the ultimate reference book, Users & Administrator’s Guide to TheFormTool PRO, Doxserá, and Doxserá DB.

Bill’s put together a terrific step-by-step cookbook on how to translate forms created with HotDocs into professional-level templates that take advantage of the power of TheFormTool, Doxserá, or Doxserá DB to become truly intelligent forms of the future.

We’re delighted to share Bill’s work with our customers and prospective customers, those firms, large and small, in more than 80 countries around the world that are looking for a better solution.
