New API Typography
Did you know that the DocuSign API supports 12 different fonts, 10 colors, 17 sizes, and 3 styles? Thats more than 60,000 combinations you can use to make your Envelopes look just as you like!
Here is an overview of the different typography options available.
Fonts
• Arial
• ArialNarrow
• Calibri
• CourierNew
• Garamond
• Georgia
• Helvetica
• LucidaConsole (default)
• Tahoma
• TimesNewRoman
• Trebuchet
• Verdana
Sizes
• 11-14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 36, 48, 72
Colors
• Black
• BrightBlue
• BrightRed
• DarkRed
• DarkGreen
• Gold
• Green
• NavyBlue
• Purple
• White
Styles
• Bold
• Italic
• Underline
Setting these options are on an individual Tab basis. To make a Verdana, large, bright blue, bolded and italicized Fullname Tab, in PHP you would write:
$tab = new Tab();
$tab->Type = TabTypeCode::FullName;
$tab->DocumentID = "1";
$tab->PageNumber = "1"
$tab->RecipientID = "1";
$tab->XPosition = "10";
$tab->YPosition = "10";
$tab->Font = "Verdana";
$tab->Bold = true;
$tab->Italic = true;
$tab->FontColor = "BrightBlue";
$tab->FontSize = "Size48";
and in Ruby (adapted from app/models/envelope.rb in the SDK Samples)
#Basic FullName Anchor tab
tab = Docusign::Tab.new.tap do |t|
t.documentID = 1
t.pageNumber = 1
t.recipientID = 1
t.type = Docusign::TabTypeCode::FullName
t.font = "Verdana"
t.bold = true
t.italic = true
t.fontColor = "BrightBlue"
t.fontSize = "Size48"
end
And your result is:
These changes were released as part of our Summer 2011 package and are available to API customers immediately.
