    I have shared a Jotform table with someone who has a Jotform account. However, they are unable to see the signed documents column that I can. How do I give them permission to see that column so that they can view the signed documents, download them, and print them?

    Hi City_of_Ozark,

    Unfortunately, Jotform Sign documents are only accessible to the form owner and cannot be shared through Jotform Tables. If you need to provide access to the signed documents, you can download them and share them manually via email or cloud storage. It’s easy to create a sign document with Jotform Sign. Let me show you how:

    1. On your My Sign Documents page, and click on Create Sign Document on the left side of the page.
    2. Click on Upload Document to upload your own document from your device.
    3. Drag and drop your document into the Upload box, or click on Upload Document to select it.
    4. Once you add your document, click on the Create Signable Document button.

    1. Click the Detect Fields button in the option that appears below the green navigation bar.
    2. After it matches the suitable elements with the spaces, click on Keep All.
    3. If you want to delete a field, just click on it and then click the Trash Can icon below it.
