Checkboxes in Word documents

in working with NEA, we have found that their checkboxes are not compatible with Responsive projects. The source file, always in word, has checkboxes made with symbols and content controls. We can bring in checkboxes manually within the project, but this would still cause an elaborate amount of work on the client end since they would still have to check the boxes manually post export.

Please look into ways to improve checkbox functionality - specifically for NEA and other clients, as this is very frequently seen.

Hi, We currently support text boxes within a table and not like the one you have mentioned here. We do have it in our roamap. Keep you informed when we implement it. Can you share the same file for us to use when we start implementing the feature.

Hello Team,

Rede Partners is looking for something similar. 2 out of 10 RFPs in word have the checkbox pattern.

TCW would also benefit from enhanced capabilities on checkboxes and exporting back to source document. Ideally they would be able to import checkboxes from word, select the desired checkbox in Responsive, then have the correct checkbox selected when exporting back to the source document
