## Prefill Widgets
85+
86+
The **Prefill Widgets** feature lets document creators prefill specific fields before sending a document for signature. This ensures that important details (such as date, name, email, images, checkboxes, radio buttons, or custom text) are already completed when recipients receive the document. By default, prefilled data cannot be edited by signers.
