Rather than creating many eSign templates to cover all variations, you can create one template to retrieve the coordinates of the signature fields. And with text tags in the mix, it's become much easier to create eSign document templates as you only need to place tags that are converted to eSign fields when the request is sent.

Note: With text tags, you can indicate whose signer the field is for, what kind of field it is, and whether or not the field is needed.

Here are the different elements of text tags and what they each stand for:

To include eSign text tags in existing document templates, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Document Template interface as outlined above.

  2. Download an existing document template.
    ​

  3. Open the downloaded template in any word processor.
    ​

  4. Paste the eSign text tag [text|noreq|signer1|Label|UniqueId] where desired

By following these steps and leveraging the different elements of text tags, you can enhance your existing document templates with eSign fields tailored to specific signers, field types, and requirements. This allows for more efficient and customized eSign document workflows within Lawcus.
