Click Next.

The document is now ready for adding fields that you want the signers to fill in or sign.

Note: If you have added multiple documents, the documents are converted into PDFs and combined into a single file. The combined file is opened for you to add appropriate fields.

The Specify Where to Fill & Sign page is displayed. If you are sending a flat-form, you see the simplified mode, else advanced mode is displayed.

• Simplified mode
  This mode provides simplified authoring with the capability of assigning fields to multiple signers. When you select a signer from the right pane and add fields in the form, the fields are assigned to the signer. That means those fields will be available to the signer for filling the information and signing the form. To place a signature or another field, click at the desired location in the document and then set the field's properties from its context menu.

You can switch the assignee of any field using the floating toolbar. The assigned colors to the signers make it easy to distinguish the fields for respective signers.

• Advanced mode
  Click Switch To Advanced Mode, to see the options as shown below. Click the  button to place the detected form fields in the PDF document. Alternatively, drag fields from the tabs in the right pane and drop them at the desired location in the document.

For more information on adding form fields, see Prefill Agreement fields and assign form fields to recipients.

When you've placed all desired fields in the document, click Send. A confirmation message is shown, and then a preview of the sent agreement is displayed. From the right pane of the agreement preview, you can do the following:

• View Status of the agreement.
• Set Reminder for yourself or the recipient.
• Cancel the agreement.
• Download the PDF agreement.
• Download Audit Report.
• Hide Agreement.
• Share agreement to let others view and access the agreement along with its status from their Acrobat Sign account.
  
• Add Notes.
• Download Individual Files, if you have added multiple files in the agreement.
• To view the timestamp of each Activity, expand the list by clicking the arrow key ().

A copy of the sent agreement is also stored in your Adobe Document Cloud account. The Recent section at the bottom area of the Home page lists all the agreements you’ve sent recently. Alternatively, to see the list of all your agreements, click Documents in the top-menu bar, and then click All Agreements.
