Hi,
I have a word template in which Signature is a field. I am capturing all the fields of this template in an Appian form. I am capturing signature using signature field, I am using the XML functionality to populate the fields in the word template. I am able to populate all the fields, but how can I populate the signature which is stored as a document in Appian. Can you please help me?
Thanks

Do we have any plugins to convert signature captured from Appian to word template?
What is your final goal? In case this document ends in a PDF, why even bothering with these DOCX files?

I am capturing the fields of a form in Appian. I am capturing the signature also in Appian using Signature field. I am using the template of this form in word and using XML functionality to convert into docx and then converting it into PDF. How can I convert the signature which is a document in Appian to word template?
I understand your question. An alternative could be to use a HTML template and create the PDF from it. The plugin supports embedding images.
Another options could be to use one of the PDF plugins to add the image after the DOCX->PDF conversion.
Just a thought, It could be a pretty long procedure to follow, I am not sure this might meet your requirements. Can you upload the signature as a document ( JPEG or PNG) and store it in Appian, From there you can query your document convert it into a base 64 string, and pass that encoded string to your word template. Not sure about this approach
