You have the option of including a private message to each recipient that only they will receive.

Authentication - Beside each recipient is a blue dropdown menu that appears when clicking Image of Authentication tab that leads to dropdown menu.

Email - The recipient will not be prompted to login to anything. They will receive an email from Adobe Sign to access documents.
Password - The sender (you) will set a password they know (a prompt will appear when selecting this option) and it must be entered by the recipient to access documents.
Social - The recipient must login to an accepted Social Media account, such as Facebook or Google, before accessing documents.

Files

Here you can attach files that must be read and/or filled out by recipients.
Accepted file formats include: .pdf, .docx, .xlsx, .txt, .ppt, .rtf, .jpg, .png, .html, and more.

The files can be various types and will all be sent as a single pdf that Adobe Sign will create when you go on to the next page in the sending process.

Preview & Add Signature Fields Checkbox

Image of the Preview and Add Sig Field Checkbox

This checkbox, when check-marked, will proceed to the Editing section of the sending process. Here, you will be able to preview pre-set fields and add new fields, if needed.
Note: It is recommended you keep this checked and to preview the fields in the document so there are no errors.

If this checkbox is not check-marked, the documents will send as-is to the recipients and they will be allowed to "sign" at the bottom of the documents to signify their approval and signature in the Adobe system.


Options

Password Protect - This password, when set, will be the password you (the sender) needs to enter to view the materials after they have been sent to recipients.  It is a form of security to prevent personal information from being accessed.

Completion Deadline - If the full process of document completion is not done by this set date, the process will nullify and need to be completed from scratch starting at the Send page.
