Hello!

I tried to use the Agreement Template Builder, but it is altering the format of my document. Is anyone else having the same problem?

For example: It’s a 4 page agreement, double spaced paragraphs and numbered. It has fillable lines for the recipient and signer.

Just viewing the page before I insert any fields, the margins are shifted, the fillable lines are shifted and completely spaced out, the paragraphs are re-numbered, and all the paragraphs are no longer double spaced.

Thank you Sherinem for your inquiry.  Moving forward, I would advise contacting Docusign Support and submitting a case.  This will document the issue into our system and you can stay in the loop on a future fix.  Please see this article on how to Open a case in the Docusign Support Center.

Are there plans to add a payment field capability to the agreement template builder?

Separately, I love that the builder solves the problem of center alignment of field formatting that was not previously available, great job!

Thank you for your comment rsadl001.  Glad to hear you’re able to center align fields as you create a document generation template with the agreement template builder.  Currently, document generation supports the following sender field types: Text, Number, Dropdown, and Date.  As the Limitations and Considerations for Document Generation article mentions, “Docusign will continue to develop this feature and potentially address some of these limitations in future releases.”
