Nitro Cloud is now Nitro Sign!
Drafts are an easy way to return to documents that are being prepared for eSigning.
Saving an eSignature Request Draft
At any stage in the Signature Request process, you can save your document and any added signature fields, recipients, and messages as a draft.
1. Initiate a Signature Request
2. Begin preparing the document for signature
3. At any stage, click Save Draft in the bottom left of your screen
Alternatively, you can click the X button at the top left of the document, which will prompt a dialog asking if you'd like to Save and Close.
Note: A document can only be saved as a draft when at least one recipient and one signature field has been added.
