You can use zope.formlib.namedtemplate for form's template.

By default, zope.formlib.form.default_page_template and pageform.pt is
used in forms.

So you can replace it to your own namedtemplate, simply like this::

  class CompaniesView(form.AddForm):

      form_fields = form.Fields(ICompany)

      template = namedtemplate.NamedTemplate('company')

      def create(self, data):
          company = Company()
          company.name = data['name']
          company.description = data['description']
          return company

  company_page_template = namedtemplate.NamedTemplateImplementation(
      ViewPageTemplateFile('companyform.pt'),
      form.interfaces.IPageForm)

and configuration::

  <adapter factory=".company_page_template" name="company" />

template::

  <html>
  <body>
  <form action="." tal:attributes="action request/URL">
  <div tal:repeat="widget view/widgets"
       tal:content="structure widget">
  </div>
  <input tal:repeat="action view/actions"
         tal:replace="structure action/render"
         />
  </form>
  </body>
  </html>

Best regards,
