We just published a [pre-release version](https://www.nuget.org/packages/TXTextControl.Web.DocumentViewer/29.0.302.500-beta) of the DocumentViewer for ASP.NET that supports the completion of MS Word compatible form fields during the document signing process. The following screenshot shows the available text form fields, checkboxes, dropdowns and date picker fields in our dedicated [document signing demo](https://esign.textcontrol.com):

### Field Validation

Form fields are available automatically when they are part of the document that is loaded into the DocumentViewer. Based on the Conditional Instructions, required fields are validated during the signing process.

In the resulting, merged document, the form fields are converted to text:

### Fully Featured Demo

Our [Electronic Signature Demo](https://esign.textcontrol.com) has been extended with a designer that shows how to insert the form fields including validation into a document:
