Is the form mobile-friendly when it is embedded?
### Embedding

Paperform is built with a mobile-first design - this means that your forms are designed to scale with any device regardless of the screen size.

## Gotchas

 - Some elements, such as images or fonts, may be displayed differently on desktop versus mobile. We recommend playing around with the [styling](https://paperform.co/help/articles/theme-overview/) on your form and picking a size that's a happy medium between the two.
 - When a form is embedded, we display it within an `<iframe>` element on your webpage. This parent `<iframe>` is what controls the size of the form itself, therefore if it's too big or small it can affect how the form is displayed.

If you'd like to change how specific components of your form content are displayed, you may wish to use [Custom HTML/ CSS](https://paperform.co/help/articles/what-is-html-and-css/) (exclusively available with selected [pricing plans](https://paperform.co/pricing/)).
