Body text

Regular paragraph text renders in Inter at 15px with a comfortable 1.7 line height. The body text colour is a warm dark grey rather than pure black, which reduces eye strain during extended reading.

Bold text uses a weight of 600, and italic text renders with a gentle slant. You can also combine bold and italic when emphasis demands it.

Lists

Unordered list:

  • Documents can contain multiple files
  • Each file is converted to PDF automatically
  • Signing fields can be placed on any page
    • Nested items are indented
    • And can go multiple levels deep

Ordered list:

  1. Create a new document
  2. Upload your files
  3. Place signing fields on each page
  4. Invite signatories
  5. Send for signature

Admonitions

Admonitions draw attention to important information. Use them sparingly for maximum impact.

Tip

tip

You can save your electronic signature in Account Settings so it's automatically suggested when you encounter a signature field.

Info

info

Documents in Completed status are immutable. Once all signatories have signed, the document and its audit log are locked and cannot be modified.

Warning

warning

Voiding a document is irreversible. All signatories will be notified and the document can no longer be signed. Consider cloning the document if you need a fresh copy.

Danger

danger

Deleting your account removes all documents, clients, and team data permanently. This action cannot be undone. Please export any data you need before proceeding.

Custom title

Pro Tip

Use blueprints to standardise your document layouts across your team. This ensures every contract, NDA, or agreement uses the same professional format.
