Hi, I am using format directive to render the date in specified format but it does not render anything. Below are the tag which are working fine and failing. 

Working fine and rendering value with "Aug 8 2023": {{P1_es_:signer1:date}}

Not working and not rendering any value: {{P1_es_:signer1:date:format(date,dd-mm-yy)}}.

Can somebody help me with this?

    Hi Deepak,

    The reason why the date field is not being recognized is due to the text tag is wrapping to a new line. 

    As you can  see in the example below, I decreased the font size after the two opening curley brackets, 

    Attaching a Word file for your convenience with the same example. 

    {{P1_es_:signer1:date:format(dd/mm/yyyy)}}

     

    Another option, is  to follow the syntax for text that shortening. Please look at the article below

    Hello,

    Are you making sure to put the format for the date in quotes?

    Example:

     

    {{date1_es_:signer1:date:format(date, "mmm dd, yyyy")}}

    Hi, we have a document that does not render the date tag. This tag will work fine without any quotes as well.
