Landlords and Organization users, in Prepare mode only.

PDF editor → Fields panel ("Drag onto the page or click to add").

Drag a field onto the page, or click it to add it to the page you're on. Field types: Signature, Text, Text Area, Checkbox, Radio, Dropdown.
With a field selected, use Assign to (or, in Recipients, "Turn on each person who should complete this field.") so the field belongs to a signer. Fields show the assignee's colour and label.
Use the field toolbar: Required, Edit (Field name, Placeholder, Width, Height, and Options for dropdowns and radios), Duplicate (on this page, or On every page), and Delete.
Shift-click several fields to change them together ("<n> selected").
Select Save. The header shows "Unsaved changes", "Saving", then "All changes saved".

A Dropdown with no options shows "No options" and "Add at least one option so signers can choose." until you add one with Add option.
On the standard lease form, some fields offer Use on future documents, which saves that value for your future leases.
On a phone, tap a field to get a docked bar (Required, Edit, Duplicate, Delete); Add field opens the field list.
Other header controls: zoom in/out (Ctrl + / Ctrl -), Reset zoom to 100%, Fit to width, show or hide the pages panel, Download, and More actions.

There is no separate date field type; use a Text field. Signature fields are required by default.

Closing with unsaved fields asks "Save your changes?" with keep editing, discard or save options.
