Welcome to the Community! 

 

If you are placing tags on the document and they are appearing very small, this is normally caused by an uploaded PDF that was very large. 

Each document has a page size and resolution(dpi) . DocuSign maintains  the resolution and page size when uploaded into the application . If the resolution is high or the page is oversized, then fields appear very small when placed on your document.

You can normally resolve by either  1. Manually Changing the size of the tag.

2. Reformatting the document

My font size is too small. Signatures are not readable.

My font size is too small. And signatures are coming in too small.  How can I increase the size.

size of document as it loads 

My document is about a 1/4 of the size that it should be. the signature tags are also very small and not adjustable as they usually are.

Very Small signatures and Certification

Why  are the signatures I receive back so small they are almost illegible.  The line from DocuSign on the upper  left seems even less than a #1 font.  No one can read it.  Why

Check the scale set on the tag.  There is a slider to the right of the tag .

Also the formatting properties of the Initial tag will have a 'Scale'  0-100% for the tag.  100% will be full size.

Why has the size of the requested initials changed? I'm the sender,Now I can even read it.

The initials that I requesting can not even be seen, I'm the sender before I was able to make out the intials and signature. Now its so small I can not see it.

Welcome to the community everyone! 

If  you have scaled the tag to the maximum size  and it is still barely visible, this may be related to the resolution and dimensions of the document you uploaded. I have merged your question with a previously answered discussion.
