PDF editing in Zoho Sign

PDF editing in Zoho Sign

Available in the Enterprise edition and in all data centres

PDF editing in Zoho Sign allows users to make last-minute adjustments to documents while they configure the signing workflow. This eliminates the need to switch back to a word processor, streamlining the entire process and saving valuable time.

Let's assume that you are a legal associate preparing a contract. Using Zoho Sign's PDF editing feature, you can quickly add a watermark that says "Confidential" to prevent the misuse of the draft version, highlight important clauses, and add the document created date before sending them out.
