Do forms created with LF Forms posted on a web page require the end user to have a LF license to fill out the form and submit the form to the workflow?

Question
Are LF licenses required for end users to fill out web based forms created with LF Forms?
Answers
LF Forms is composed of 2 parts, Forms (required) and Forms Portal (optional).
To start, you have the base Forms which requires the user have an assigned license. With this, the user must log into forms and has a user profile assigned. To have LF Forms, this is a required component.
Forms Portal is an optional component that allows you to publish the form for anonymous access, thus being open to the public for unlicensed users to access and submit.

With Forms Portal, public users without a license to Laserfiche can fill out and submit forms. If you have additional questions, you may want to contact your reseller.
Forms portal allows public access for submitting forms without the submitters requiring named user licenses. Without portal, users need to log in to access forms.
Thanks. Is Forms portal supplied when Forms is purchased and added to Rio?
Thanks again.

How many people can use the forms portal at once?
Is it integrated with Outlook so that a non-licensed person within an organization can email/route a forms automatically for approval through the portal?
Thank you,
There is no login associated with Forms Portal, it truly is 'public' (aside from IIS settings, firewalls, external stuff like that of course). It's not like WebLink portal where there's still a login happening under the hood. As a result, there's no limit, save the practical resources on your server.
The public Forms portal user is just filling out the initial submission, everything else is covered by the specific process that Form is part of, so a non-licensed person wouldn't even be relevant for that.
