How do I delete a document I shared for review or signature?
With the Docmend Chrome extension, delete the review link from Docmend: that permanently removes the uploaded copy, its notes and signatures from Docmend’s server. For a signature request, cancel it at any time, which deletes its PDF files from the server. You can also stop accepting notes on a review link without deleting it.
