Are Multipart Forms On the Outs?

Forms distributor aren't the least bit nervous about a decline in the sales of multipart forms.

Multipart forms are among the oldest of forms in this industry, but with the advent of the laser printer, they are quietly moving to the back of the line, and distributors don't seem a bit concerned.

Brandt Morrell, president and COO, Altec, Laguna Hills, Calif., spares no love for the antiquated forms. In fact, he considers them to be a necessary evil that is fortunately becoming less necessary. "They used to be the only way an individual could share certain information like purchase orders and invoices with another party, but that's changing with technology," he said.
