How do I put a text field into a document that all signers can see? It seems that only the signer who is assigned the text field can see it when they are signing, but other signers can't see it until after the doc is fully signed and completed.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out here in the DocuSign Community.

I understand you would like the fields to be visible to all of your recipients.

There is a way to do this, however, it would affect all fields, and it is an account-wide feature, to have this changed, you would need help from the account admin.

To do this, the admin would need to go to:

1. Settings
2. Sending Settings
3. Select the option "When an envelope is sent, write the initial value of the fields for all recipients": https://support.docusign.com/s/document-item?bundleId=pik1583277475390&topicId=xgg1583277350154.html&_LANG=enus
4. Save

This will allow the fields to become visible to your recipients.

Let us know if you need further assistance with this.

Is there any other option?

Does anyone know why DocuSign allows contracts to be signed by a person who WILL NOT SEE text that someone else added to the contract BEFORE they sign, but WILL SEE that text AFTER they sign?
