To use Adobe Sign in DocumentsCorePack you have to enter Adobe Sign text tags. These are formatted text that can be placed anywhere within the content of your template. Text tags are converted into Adobe Sign form fields when the document is sent for signature or uploaded.

Please find all possible Adobe Sign text tags in the Adobe Sign Text Tag Guide.
