Publish it, sign it, review it - without leaving Docs.

Docs Pro adds to Docs. Publish a folder of documents as a handbook or help centre with a reader built for long reading. Send a contract for signatures. Let colleagues comment and suggest changes for you to accept. Fill a letter or quote in from Contacts, bring Word files in and send them out, and keep a copy of everything in your own cloud storage. Docs stays the master copy.

What Docs Pro does for you

Domma Spaces

A Docs folder becomes a section of your site - a staff handbook, a help centre, a set of guides - with contents, search, "On this page" and Previous and Next. Public, members only, or for the roles you choose.

A reader for long reading

Text size, font (including Easy read), spacing, margins, Light, Sepia or Dark, and scroll or turn pages like an e-reader. It shows how far through a page you are and remembers where you stopped.

Signatures

Send a document for signing. Each person signs from their own emailed link, typed or drawn, in order if you like. Everyone gets the signed copy with a certificate page.

Suggested changes

Share with someone as a Suggester, or suggest changes yourself. New words are underlined, removed words struck through, and an editor accepts or rejects each one.

Comments

Comment on some words or on the whole document, reply and resolve. The owner and everyone in the thread are notified.

Merge fields

Put {{contact.name}}, {{date}} or your own fields in a letter or quote, then fill them in from a contact to make a new document. The original stays ready for next time.

Ready-made templates

Letter, quote, proposal, service agreement, meeting notes, project brief, weekly update, policy, how-to procedure, handbook page, job description and press release.

Word files

Import .docx files as documents - headings, lists, tables, links and pictures come across - and download any document as Word.

Cloud copies

Copies of your documents in Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox or an S3 bucket, as Markdown, HTML, text or PDF - after every save, nightly or when you say.

Protected links

Give a document's public link a password, an expiry date, or both.

A look inside

The Staff handbook Space in the admin: online and public, six pages published, the pages in reading order grouped by folder.

A price list with suggested changes marked in the text and the Suggestions panel listing each one with Accept and Reject.

A signing request: signed by 1 of 2, who has signed and who has been emailed, Remind, and the record with the document's fingerprint.
Where a request stands, with the full record and the document's fingerprint.

Works with the rest of your site

Docs

Docs Pro adds to Docs and needs it. Your documents stay in Docs whatever happens.

Contacts

Merge fields fill a letter or quote in from one of your contacts.

Media

Pictures in imported Word files go to your Media library.

Email

Signing links and signed copies go out through your site's own email.

Good to know

Comments and pending suggestions stay in Docs: the public link, Spaces, downloads and copies never show them. A signed document is frozen with a fingerprint, so anyone can check a copy is the one that was signed.

What it needs

Docs 2.6 or later. Your site's email set up, for signatures. PDF copies need Chrome on the server - without it you get a web page you can print.

Questions

Every document stays in Docs, exactly as it was. Spaces go offline but are kept for when the licence is renewed, and Suggesters can still read like Viewers. Suggestions already made stay marked, and still never show publicly.

To your own Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox or S3 bucket - you connect your own account, and copies are made under a folder you name. Nothing is read back: Docs stays the master copy, and copies stay when a document is deleted.

It is a simple electronic signature: each person signs from a link emailed to them alone, agrees to sign electronically, and the certificate page records who signed and when. That suits most agreements - tenancy agreements, contracts for services, consent forms. It is not for deeds, wills or anything that must be witnessed.

No. Until someone who can edit accepts them, the public link, Spaces, downloads, Word and cloud copies all show the document as it was.

Yes - Save as template works on any document, and yours are listed first. The ready-made ones cannot be changed, but you can start from one, change it and save it as your own.
