What it means to import Word documents to signNow

Importing Word documents to signNow refers to transferring .doc or .docx files from a local drive, cloud storage, or another app into the signNow environment so they can be prepared, configured with fields, routed, and electronically signed. The process typically preserves formatting, allows placement of signature and data fields, and creates an audit-ready record for each transaction. Users can import single files or batches, convert Word content to a PDF-equivalent signing document, and then use signNow tools to automate workflows, apply authentication, and manage retention and compliance settings.

Comment importer des documents Word dans airSlate SignNow

Avant de télécharger un fichier Word dans votre compte airSlate SignNow, envisagez d'y inclure des balises de texte générant des champs. Une fois le document téléchargé, ces balises se transformeront automatiquement en champs à remplir.

Alternativement, téléchargez un document Word tel quel, puis ajoutez des champs à remplir en utilisant l'éditeur glisser-déposer d'airSlate SignNow.

Ajouter des balises de texte à votre document

Ouvrez un document Word dans n'importe quel éditeur de texte et insérez les balises de texte suivantes à l'endroit où vous souhaitez faire apparaître des champs à remplir.

  • Champ de texte

    {{ t:t;r:y;o:"Signataire 1";l:"Texte"; }}

    Dans cette balise, “Signataire 1” décrit le rôle du signataire, et “Texte” est l'étiquette du champ. Vous pouvez définir ces valeurs selon vos besoins.

    Exemple : {{ t:t;r:y;o:"Client";l:"Nom"; }}

  • Champ de signature

    {{ t:s;r:y;o:"Signataire 1";w:100;h:15; }}

    “Signataire 1” représente le rôle du signataire. Cette valeur peut être modifiée. L'étiquette du champ est “Champ de signature” par défaut. Vous pouvez ajuster la taille du champ en modifiant les valeurs “w:100” (largeur) et “h:15” (hauteur).
