In your state, you have to download and fill out forms that are available as PDFs, but you can then submit them online (e.g. scan the completed forms and submit them). It is a somewhat "clumsier" process than many other states (e.g. NJ) use, where you can do everything directly in the state website, but at least you can submit via the internet instead of by maiing. The government agency which oversees business registrations, including LLC formation, is the Department of State; you can find a helpful (downloadable forms) PA government website page at: http://www.dos.pa.gov/BusinessCharities/Business/RegistrationForms/Pages/default.aspx#.VcvNpng-BsO
