To integrate Google Forms and Salesforce.com, I choose to use POST method to send data from Sheets to Web to Any and let it do the rest of everything. It provides more security than the building-in W2L by assigning a pageToken to every web form it generates. If a post doesn’t contains pageToken, it simply returns HTTP Error 400 Bad request.

I have a filed contains long text in Salesforce.com. When I use “\n” to move some to next line, it just display an empty space.
If I use “<br>”, it works with outputText with escape=”false” but suffer from scripting-attacks according to VisualForce: convert carriage returns to html line-breaks in a long text field. This doesn’t work for Salesforce1 because “<br>” is displayed without line breaks.
Line breaks and consecutive spaces in outputText are removed on postback and Laurent Stanevich suggests to use outputField replacing outputText. It works in my case on both browser and Salesforce1.

To remove record type in Chatter Free and Chatter Moderate User, it’s not that straight forward because there is no Object Settings in Profile Overview. You need to hack URL.
