Documents written in the old editor stop being sendable on 30 November 2026. You keep the wording by downloading each one as a PDF and uploading it as your own PDF.
Why it matters
Your own PDF keeps your exact wording, and you can keep sending it on your own pages after the old editor is gone.
Steps
- Open Templates and look for rows marked "Old style · retires Nov 30, 2026". Owners and admins can also open the old-style documents page from the notice at the top, with the button "See your old-style documents".
- On the old-style documents page, choose Download as PDF for one document, or Download all (ZIP) to get every one in a single file. A large download can take a minute.
- On a row, choose "Replace with your own PDF". It opens Start a document with that document chosen, so it keeps its name. You can also open Start a document yourself and use the section Use your own PDF.
- Upload the PDF, check the signature lines the app found, and choose Save for the company.
- Send it when you are ready. Each send costs 12 credits.
Good to know
- Anything already out for signature finishes as it started, and your signed copies stay where they are.
- You can still download an old-style document after it retires.
- The old-style documents page counts every old-style document, including ones you already replaced with your own PDF, so its number can be higher than the one in the Templates notice.
- You will get an email when the date is set and a reminder 3 days before.
- Only owners and admins see the old-style documents page. Members do not.
