Notes to the A+B Soft forms

Reporting of the data for quarterly reporting requires the completion of the A+B Soft forms (also referred to in the following as the A+B forms) listed in Appendix II. The comparison with the annual reporting requirement in Appendix II clearly indicates that there is little difference in the volume and scope of the data required for quarterly reporting.

formato SoftForm

Explanation:
This appears to be a brand name of a new format for documentation. If I'm correct, I suggest you might use:
"formato SoftForm" or something similar. Please see the following explanation:

"SoftForms stores digital versions of your preprinted forms in a ScriptServer library as PostScript files. Simply retrieve one of these files as a form setup module. SoftForms superimposes the ASCII text from your application onto the form's fields. The digital forms are replicas of your preprinted forms, so you can use your application's existing ASCII files with them, including files from Unix and Windows NT. Print the completed form to a PostScript-compatible printer through the ScriptServer print queue. The form is sent to the printer only once per job, saving processing time on multiple copies. The image prints at the resolution of your printer the higher the resolution, the better the image quality".

Hope this helps:-)
