Issue with Signature Fields Not Attaching to Anchor Text in Adobe Acrobat Sign

I am facing an issue when trying to attach signature fields to specific anchor texts in my document. I've provided the anchor texts (such as "[Representative Signature]", "[Client's Signature]", etc.) in the JSON request, but the signature fields are not getting attached to the anchor text locations as expected. Instead, they are being appended at the bottom of the page.

As you can see, I have specified anchor text like [Representative Signature], but the signature fields are being placed at the bottom of the page instead of at the anchor location.
Has anyone encountered this issue before, or could someone provide insights on what might be going wrong? Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
