# How to Collect More Than 2,000 Characters of Text in a Form?

|| This feature is only available for Pro and Team subscribers.
By default, rich text fields in NoteForms support formatting (bold, italics, hyperlinks, lists) but are limited to **2,000 characters**. If you need to collect longer submissions—like blog posts, essays, or detailed reports—you should use the **Page Body Input** block instead.


### Why Use Page Body Input?

The **Page Body Input** allows form responses to populate the **body of a Notion page**, not just a database property. This removes any character limit and is ideal for long-form content.

#### Key Differences:

**Rich Text Input**

* Max: 2,000 characters

* Saves to a Notion database property

* Allows basic formatting

**Page Body Input**

* No character limit

* Saves directly to the Notion page body

* Best for long or complex submissions

### When to Use Page Body Input

✅ Blog or article submissions  
✅ Meeting notes or summaries  
✅ Journaling or open-ended forms  
✅ Anything longer than 2,000 characters

## How to Add a Page Body Input to Your Form

1. Go to your form’s edit page.
    
2. Click **“Add a block”** (upper left corner).
    
3. On the right panel, under **Custom Blocks**, click **“Page Body Input.”**
    
4. Publish and save your form.

## FAQ

### I don’t need a Page Body Input, but I can’t enter more than 2,000 characters. Why?

If you're using a **text input field**, make sure you've enabled **Multiple Line Inputs**. Sometimes users hit the character limit faster due to line breaks, spaces, or formatting.

To fix this:

1. Go to the settings of your text input field.
    
2. Under **Text Options**, enable **Multiple Line Input**.

This allows for better handling of longer responses under 2,000 characters.
