Embedding an Image

Images can be embedded within any field inside your fillable template. To embed an image, select your File Upload field from the mapping drop down and check the Embed image in field checkbox.

You can embed images from:

  • Single File Upload fields
  • Multi-File Upload fields limited to a single file
  • Signature fields
Embed image in PDF field

Legal Signing supports embedding the following image file types:

  • JPEG
  • GIF
  • PNG
  • PDF

When the document is generated, the API server will download the image to embed it. If the image cannot be downloaded (because it is hidden behind a firewall/authentication or otherwise inaccessible), the mapped field will be left empty.

The embedded image will be scaled to fit within the template field’s bounding box. When mapping a Signature field to a template field, we recommend having identical bounding box sizes or aspect ratios to ensure the signature appears correctly.
