Concord allows you to create a document directly from an imported PDF, and then add text, required fields, and signature fields to that document.

If you select a Word document, you will have the option to choose to bring the document in two different formats:

  • Word Mode, which preserved the Word document's formatting
  • Live format, which you can edit with Concord's live editor

After selecting the document to start with, you will be asked to add additional details. You can also select Skip for Now and complete this information after upload in the Summary panel

  • Document Title: Title of the document
  • Third-Party: Who is this contract with?

This information can be adjusted later in the Summary panel.

Adding Signers 

  • Configure who should sign the document before it's created. 
  • Select +Signer and enter the name or email of the individual that will be required to sign
