Feature request: Create document in the app instead of uploading #255

Closed bernhardmostrey closed 5 months ago

Would love to replace our PandaDoc with your app, however, uploading a docx file results in low quality PDF. Would to have an editor in the app so I can create simple templates.

Also, when creating a new document with a template, I'd like to be able to input some variables right away and then send the doc to the signee.

Just my thoughts ;)

@bernhardmostrey thanks for the suggestions:

uploading a docx file results in low quality PDF

PDF page image previews might seem low quality - but the signed PDF from the docx upload should be in the original quality

Would to have an editor in the app so I can create simple templates.

That's not a goal of the project at the moment

Also, when creating a new document with a template, I'd like to be able to input some variables right away and then send the doc to the signee.

it's possible with docx - if you put {{signature}} text tag in the docx it will be automatically replaced with signature field: https://www.docuseal.co/guides/use-embedded-text-field-tags-in-the-pdf-to-create-a-fillable-form
