1. Prepare an eSignature Document
Tips
You can add up to 10 signers to an eSignature request.
When you close the PDF file with eSignature fields, the fields won't be saved. If you want to save eSignature fields and use them as a template, start the eSignature request on a Google Doc.
For a signer in the document, the signer label is just a placeholder identifier and isn't part of the signing PDF that’s generated later.
To differentiate fields assigned to different signers easily, each signer in the document is assigned a unique color. All fields assigned to the same signer are displayed in the same color.
2. Send and eSignature Request
Tips
The signee has to have a gmail address.
After you click Request signature, the PDF file locks to avoid any changes before the signers can fulfill the eSignature request. The file used to create the signature request remains unlocked and isn't automatically shared with the signers as part of the eSignature request.
To check the progress of an eSignature request:
Open the respective PDF file in Drive or through the link in the email notification.
To open the right side panel and view eSignature details, at the top right of the PDF, click View details.
3. Add changes to a document after you send it
4. Cancel a pending eSignature request
Tip
If you want to delete the PDF copy of your canceled request, navigate to the file’s folder and delete that copy. The default location is My Drive.
5. Check the status of eSignature request
Tips
If you're the only signer: You and the requester get an email that the request is complete.
If the request has multiple signers: The request isn’t complete until all signers sign, at which point all signers and the requester get an email that the request is complete.
