<h2>Advanced forms</h2>
<p>From now on, work with digital forms becomes even more effective. You can create and assign various recipient roles for field filling to simplify document workflow. This way users will be able to visually identify which fields they should fill out depending on the role-matching colors.</p>
<p>In the future updates, we are going to extend this functionality by adding an ability to set recipient roles with restrictions as well as e-signatures.</p>
<p>Besides, version 7.3 brings new ready-to-use fields to create forms more quickly:</p>
<ul>
<li>Date &amp; Time (with multiple display options)</li>
<li>ZIP code</li>
<li>Credit card</li>
</ul>
