The No Signer field type in the Document Editor lets you add content to a document that is not assigned to any signer. Signers can see these fields during signing but cannot edit them — the content is pre-set by the sender.
Supported No Signer field types
- Signature
- Initials
- Text
- Checkbox
- Dropdown
- Attachment
Common use cases
- Pre-signing a document: Add your own signature before sending it to signers, creating a counter-signed effect.
- Adding read-only information: Add text fields with content all signers should see but cannot edit, such as a reference number, date, or legal clause.
- Pre-checking checkboxes: Add a checkbox that is already marked and cannot be changed by signers.
How to add a No Signer field
- Open your document in the Prepare step of Xodo Sign.
- In the fields panel, select the field type you want to add.
- Change the signer assignment to No Signer.
- Drag the field onto your document.
- Enter the value you want to pre-set in the field.
Note: No Signer fields are visible to all signers during signing but cannot be edited.
