Auto Placement of Fields
The Auto Field Placement feature in our API allows you to automatically place fields on your PDFs based on specific string inputs. This means that if your document contains a phrase like "Sign Here," our system can automatically detect this string and place a signature field right next to it. This feature is designed to save you time and make it easier to automate placing signatures on a variety of documents
Using this feature is straightforward. You simply need to specify the string you want the system to look for in your document. Once the string is identified, the corresponding field is placed automatically. This can be particularly useful for documents where the exact location of fields like signatures may vary, but the strings indicating where they should be placed, such as "Sign Here," remain consistent. By automating the placement of these fields, you can save time and avoid the need to manually locate and place each field in every document, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in your workflow.
This is an example of how you could specify this in the document section of your request:
"auto_placements": [
{
"kind": "sig",
"search": "Tenant Signature",
"h": 3,
"w": 25,
"offset_y": 2,
"editors": [
"signer-1"
]
},
{
"kind": "sdt",
"search": "Tenant Date",
"h": 3,
"w": 25,
"offset_y": 2,
"editors": [
"signer-1"
]
},
{
"kind": "sig",
"search": "Landlord Signature",
"offset_y": 2,
"h": 3,
"w": 25,
"editors": [
"signer-2"
]
},
{
"kind": "sdt",
"search": "Landlord Date",
"offset_y": 2,
"h": 3,
"w": 25,
