Jotblocks

JotBlocks are areas in templates or documents that indicate where input data will be applied and passed through integration. There are several ways that Jotblocks affect the document, including information such as:

• where data will be entered by a signer

• where digitized signatures will be applied by a signer

• the format of applied data

• instructions to end users (signers) that will appear when they are walked through the document signing process

Jotblocks may be defined when a template or document is created or edited using the template design page, or dynamically when submitting a document through DocumentNOW, embedded text tags, or XML in the submission.

In this video, learn how-to get started using Jotblocks.

Signers may provide data to be applied to documents by various means, including:

• drawing, with a mouse, stylus, or a finger (on a touch enabled device)

• drawing on a signature pad

• typing

• selecting from drop down lists

• checking multiple items in a checkbox group

• selecting a single item from a radio button group
