Contract Questions

I noticed in the demo that there's only a spot for clients to sign. Is it possible to do the following?

1. Have a client enter their info (name, address, e-mail, phone number)?
2. Have a section for photographer to initial payment schedule when deposit and final payment is received? I like everything on one document.

Thanks!
Jamie

Sorry for the layout above. The site will not allow me to post the raw HTML code, so bullets and horizontal rules are not appearing, as well as other formatting syntax.
