Requirement:

After sending the document for Signature, the document is converted into pdf.

After signature, we would like to send the document for External Review in .docx format. So that we can compare the redlined content.

Is there any way possible to convert pdf into .docx format?

No, this is not possible within a CLM workflow, we only convert to PDF. You would need to use an external tool that does these kind of document conversions.

However, if you convert a signed documents from PDF back to docx. format, it is no longer a valid signed document. Unclear what comparison you want to do after signature, as only fields will be added, but no actual redlining will be done in eSignature.

Hello!


I hope you are doing well. Not sure why redlining is still done after the contract was signed. You can save the word document that was sent for signature in another document variable, so the external reviewers can review the contract verbiage before it was signed.


If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
