How to Enable and Place Signatures

Learn how to enable and place signatures anywhere in your Addo document for a customized signing experience.

Updated yesterday

Custom Signature Placement

Note: Custom signature placement is enabled in template settings and can only be modified by an administrator.

By default, Addo signatures appear on a separate page. However, you can manually place them in the document. This is useful when:

  • Multiple signatures are needed in different locations.

  • Signers’ signatures must be placed on specific sections.

  • You want a signature in a defined spot.

When using this template for a new signature, you can place signatures as needed. An extra page with the signature and activity log will still be added.

This article explains the two steps required.

Step 1: Enable Signature Placement in Template Settings

  1. Go to Settings (cogwheel).

  2. Select Templates and choose the template:


  3. Under 'Additional options', 'enable Can place signature of signer in document':


  4. Scroll down and click 'Save' to finish the process.


Step 2: Place Signatures for a New Document

  • Select the template with placement enabled:

  • Add signer(s) and upload document(s)

  • Click 'Place Signatures':

On the placement page:

  • Select the correct document (if multiple):

  • Choose the page:

  • Drag the Signature or Date of Signing box to the desired spot:

  • Assign the correct signer to each box:

  • Close the side menus by clicking 'X', then click 'Save' to continue:

Your document is now ready to be sent!

Signed Document

When the transaction is complete, you’ll receive:

  1. The document with signatures placed as specified:

  2. The usual extra page with the activity log:

Wrap-Up

You’re now ready to create documents with custom signature placement for a more personalized and professional signing experience.
