Sign a PDF you already have
Most businesses already have their agreements as PDFs: a rental contract, a waiver, a form from the county. This video shows how to get one signed without retyping a word. Upload it, show people where to sign, save it as a template, and send it.

What the video covers
Most businesses already have their agreements as PDFs: a rental contract, a waiver, a form from the county. This video shows how to get one signed without retyping a word. Upload it, show people where to sign, save it as a template, and send it. It starts in Templates, where every document you send from lives.
Choose the file. The name you gave it carries over, and you can change it here. Say what kind of document it is, then press Prepare. Each page is drawn in your own browser, on your machine rather than on a server, and the file itself is kept exactly as you uploaded it.
Now show people where to sign. Every PDF starts with two questions, a signature and the date. Open the pages, pick the signature, and drag a box onto the signature line. Place it, then do the same for the date. The signer fills in each box in that exact spot, and the signed copy is your own file with their answers drawn on it.
Next, anything else you need to know. Each line is a question: its name, what the signer sees, and what kind of answer it is. Add a printed name here. A question with no box on the page is asked underneath the document instead, so nothing is missed.
Who signs it? One person, or several in turn: a renter, and then someone on your staff to countersign. This agreement needs one signature.
Read it once more. If you want your business address printed under it, tick the box. Then finish, and it is saved as a template. From that moment this version is fixed, so what somebody signed last week can never be changed underneath them.
Finished, it says so, and offers the two ways it can go out: sent to a person, or set up for people to sign themselves, with a QR code or a tablet. Send it now. Add the renter's name and their email address or mobile number. SignSealer checks it once more before anything goes, then they get a private link of their own, which opens on their phone without an app or an account.
And the Unsigned page shows who has not signed yet, with a reminder one click away. When they sign, it moves to Documents with its certificate.
