Decreasing the font of the text tag:
The first open curly bracket decides the font type and size of the field. You can decrease the font size of the later part of text tag to decrease the field length.
For Example, you can change {{Birthday_es_:signer2:isdate(format=dd/mm/yy)}} to

Support and Troubleshooting
Cause
Assign at least one signature field to each recipient if you are assigning them signer role.
Following are the reasons for signature block Auto-generated even if there is a signature field assigned to the signer:
- If one or more signatures fields are not set as Required.
- If signature fields have Conditions (Show/Hide/Enable/Disable) applied to them.
- For Widgets, if you have not applied any Email field on the document.
- Also, the account is set up to require Title and/or Company fields.
Resolution
Following are the options to resolve the issue in each scenario:
- If the signature field is not set to Required make it a required field.
- If there are Conditions in the signature field, either remove the conditions or add one more signature field without conditions.
- Add an Email address field to the widget.
- If Title and Company are set to required, add the Title or Company field on the document or disable the setting from Signature Preference under Account Settings.
You can fetch the result of templates by running the report and later filtering the Agreement Status as "FORM_PROTOTYPE, FORM_PROTOTYPE_EMBEDDED."
However, it does not show the sharing permission set for each template.
No.
Acrobat Sign text tags do not include directives for Bold, Italic, or Underline.
No.
The user must rotate the page before uploading it into Acrobat Sign.
In Acrobat Sign, the default format for date fields is Month Day Year (mm/dd/yyyy)
You can use the formatting scheme from calculated fields to specify the date field format, for example:
{{date1_es_:signer1:date:format(date, "mmm dd, yyyy")}}
This causes the date field format to appear as: Dec 01, 2018
Alternatively, you can use a calc formula to generate the same format:
{{date_es_:signer1:calc(now()):format(date, "mmm dd, yyyy")}}
Both these fields behave the same and result in the same format being displayed in the date field.
You can use following characters to specify the formatting of an output in the form of a date, time, and AM/PM.
After adding (tt), it displays the A.M./P.M. designator.
Following is the example:
{{DateTime_es_:signer1:calc(now()):format(date,"mmm d,yyyy, hh:nn:ss:tt")}}
By default, signature and initial fields can be placed and configured to fit into a designated space.
For most customers this is desirable as forms often have unpredictable formats, and getting one "standard" field to fit in all places isn't practical.
However, enterprise customers that want to enforce the default fields size for all signature and initial fields may do so by contacting their success manager and requesting that the resizing of signature fields be disabled.
Disabling the resize feature prevents new agreements and templates from allowing signature and initial fields from having their default field size changed in the drag and drop environment.
Text tag fields present differently depending on the size of the field that the tag defines:
- If the text tag is smaller than the default field size, then the default field is rendered during authoring and signing
- If the text tag is larger than the default size, the size defined by the tag is respected during authoring and signing, but the final signature graphic will only occupy the space of the default field size
- The common anchor point is the botton-left corner of the tag/field
Other things to keep in mind...
- This setting only applies to signature and initial fields
- Making a change to this setting only impacts newly sent agreements. Any agreement in-flight retains the setting value that was in place when the agreement was originally sent
- Draft agreements haven't been sent yet, so they adopt the new setting value
- Widgets and Library documents are templates, so they adopt the new setting value. Once an agreement is produced from the template, the value is fixed
The length of the text tags decides the length of the field. There are two methods to decrease the field length:
-
-
Using Text tag Shortening:
A shortened text tag consists of two parts:- Reference Tag: The reference tag controls the size and location of the actual form field in the document. A reference tag has the following syntax: {{$shortened_name}}.
For example, {{$r}} defines a reference tag where "r" is the short name of the tag. - Definition Tag: It refers to the complete definition for a specific tag and can be defined anywhere in the document.
A definition tag has the following syntax: {{#shortened_name=Standard Tag Syntax}}.
For example, {{#r=[]ReceiveCommunication_es_:signer1}} defines a complete tag definition for the reference tag named "r."
To learn more about text tag shortening, see Shortening Text Tags.
- Reference Tag: The reference tag controls the size and location of the actual form field in the document. A reference tag has the following syntax: {{$shortened_name}}.
- Increasing the font of the text tag:
The first open curly bracket decides the font type and size of the field. eg:
- Increasing the length of the text tag field:
The length of the field can be increased by increasing the space before the end brackets.
eg: {{Birthday_es_:signer2:isdate(format=dd/mm/yy) }}
