1. In a digital medium environment for processing electronic forms, a computer-implemented method for identifying and populating static form fields using prior responses to similar form fields or other user-specific information, the method comprising:

  • receiving an electronic form having, encoded in the form, static text and a static form field for containing information specific to a given user of the electronic form;

    identifying, using an image recognition algorithm, a fillable form field candidate based on a graphical representation of the static form field;

    identifying an attribute of the fillable form field candidate based on the static text;

    selecting a suggested response from a ranked set of suggested responses for populating the fillable form field candidate, the ranked set of suggested responses including user-specific information obtained from the given user and based on at least one of;

    a plurality of prior responses to other form fields having at least one attribute in common with the identified attribute of the fillable form field candidate, and a context associated with the identified attribute; and

    presenting, via a graphical user interface, the suggested response for subsequent acceptance or rejection by the given user.
