Adding signature blocks to documents

Signature blocks let you add electronic signature fields to your documents. You can add multiple signature blocks and assign them to specific people or leave them unassigned for general use.

Accessing Signature Blocks

Signature blocks are managed from their own dedicated panel:

  1. Click the Signatures icon in the right sidebar
  2. The signatures panel opens showing your signature options
  3. You'll see signature assignment controls and available signature blocks

Signature Assignment Types

Assigned Signatures Signature blocks designated for specific people:

  • Each assigned signature gets a unique color
  • Requires entering a name or email address
  • Shows the person's information on the signature block

Unassigned Signatures General signature blocks without specific assignment:

  • Labelled as "Unassigned"
  • Can be signed by anyone who accesses the document
  • No specific person designated

Positioning and Resizing Signature Blocks

Moving Blocks

  • Click and drag any signature block to reposition it on the canvas
  • Use alignment guides to position blocks relative to other content

Resizing Blocks

  • Click on a signature block to select it
  • Drag the corner handles to adjust the size
  • Make blocks larger or smaller based on your layout needs

Multiple Signature Blocks

You can add as many signature blocks as needed:

Multiple Assigned Signatures

  • Create separate signature blocks for each person
  • Each person's block displays in a different color
  • Drag each block to the appropriate document location

Mixed Signature Types

  • Use both assigned and unassigned blocks in the same document
  • Assign specific blocks to known signers
  • Use unassigned blocks for flexible signing scenarios

Managing Signature Blocks

Modifying Assignments

  • Reassign signature blocks to different people as needed
  • Convert unassigned blocks to assigned blocks by adding person details
  • Remove signature blocks by selecting and deleting them

Block Organization

  • Signature blocks can be moved, resized, or removed after placement
  • Color coding helps distinguish between different assigned signatures
  • Multiple blocks can be positioned throughout the document
