Today brought several questions about using DocuSign's electronic signature services on the Apple iPad. Doug Rybacki, director of product management for DocuSign, confirmed that DocuSign subscribers can create DocuSign envelopes on the iPad and it works well for templates and sending  for eSignature with Freeform signing.  So what are templates and Freeform signing, you ask?

Using Templates: Templates help streamline the sending process when you frequently send documents that are the same or similar. You can apply one or more templates to an uploaded document.

Uploading from a Template: To upload a document directly from an existing template, click the Add new document from a template link, select the template and click OK.

Working with Templates: To apply a template to a document, click the Apply a Template to this document link, select the template and click OK.

To apply another template to a document, click the Apply another Template to this document link, select the template, type the page of the document the new template will start on and click OK.

To remove a template from a document, click the Remove Template link. For more information about templates, check out this how-to blog post, How-To Create a Template in DocuSign Electronic Signature.

If the Freeform Signing feature is used, the signer sees the following items in the upper left corner of the documents window. The signer drags the appropriate item from the Click & Drag box to the appropriate place n the document. The signer clicks the Complete Signing button near the upper right corner of the screen to complete Freeform signing.  For more on Freeform signing, take a look at this how-to blog post, How-To Use Free Form Signing From DocuSign.
