  • Sender name

  • Sent date and time

  • A Review and Sign action button

Clicking Review and Sign initiates the signing process.


Login to emSigner

  • No manual navigation is required to locate the document.


Document Viewer Overview

Once inside the document viewer, the user can:

  • Read the complete document content

  • Navigate between pages using page controls

  • View document metadata such as document name and reference number
