WP E-Signature - Save as PDF Add-On

WP E-Signature's Save as PDF add-on lets you and your signers download signed documents as a PDF directly from the document page, with advanced display options to choose from.

If you’re using version 2.0, follow the instructions at the top of this page. 🥳  

If you’re on version 1.9.4.1 or earlier, we recommend updating to the latest version. If updating isn’t possible right now, you can find alternative instructions at the bottom section of this page.

How to configure Save as PDF settings

First, visit E-Signature, Add-ons, and find Save as PDF > Enable.

Then, visit E-Signature > Settings > Document to find Save as PDF default options and PDF naming options.

Choose from these naming variables:

  1. Document name — The title of your WP E-Signature document
  2. Unique document ID — A long, unique number tied to your document, like a social security number for it
  3. Current date — The date the document is marked complete or signed by all parties
  4. Document create date — The date your WP E-Signature document was created
