Rather than creating many e-Sign 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.

Different Elements of Text Tags

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

Steps to include eSign text tags in existing document templates

  1. Navigate to the Automation section and click on the Document Template tab.

  3. Open the downloaded template in any word processor.

  4. Paste the eSign text tag [text|noreq|signer1|Label|UniqueId] where desired. For more details on how to use 'Text Tags,' click here.
