hi- I have to e-sign a .xml file, but I am not sure Docusing has developped this function (it works only for .pdf files).

Any ideas about that?

thanks

@David_64 

You are correct that Docusign eSignature only supports PDF files. Any files uploaded in other formats (like .docx or .pptx) are automatically converted into PDF.

Although Docusign previously had offerings that allowed users to keep the original file formatting, these have been discontinued. Consequently, there is currently no way to maintain the XML format within the platform.
