DETROIT – In some cases, a physical signature is required. This may be due to legal or regulatory requirements, rules, or preferences of both parties that consider physical signatures to be more secure.

Create a signature in a few easy steps with our online tool using your keyboard, mouse, stylus, or finger.

What is a handwritten signature?

Digital Handwritten Signature: A person’s handwritten signature is made using appropriate software tools to confirm the integrity and authenticity of the signed document in electronic form. A digital handwritten signature can be put: remotely using special software and hardware or in the presence of the client. Essentially, a digital handwritten signature is the digital equivalent of a physical signature. This is a definite attempt to mitigate the disadvantages inherent in a physical signature, including the difficulty of determining the authenticity of a signature.

A software technique can be used to examine a digital handwritten signature relatively instantaneously. The digital tablet records the position of the pen’s tip at different times, its angle, and the pressure applied to the tablet, in addition to the outlines of the signature symbols that are typically examined when examining a physical signature. The information gathered via graphic tablets reflects the dynamics of the hand’s muscle motions and is consequently a biometric trait unique to that person.

Handwritten Signature Process for Signers

From the recipients’ point of view, the Handwritten Signature process is similar to the Electronic Signature process. The difference is that the recipient needs to print the document before signing it.

  • An email notification is sent to the recipient with a link to the Open and Print document.
  • By selecting the link, the recipient can first view a summary of the three steps in the signing process.

Signing in three easy steps

  1. View and make changes. The recipient clicks the Download button to download the document. The recipient opens and prints the downloaded PDF file. The recipient physically signs the printed document.
  2. Download and sign. Download, print, and sign the document with a pen. Go to Signnow when you’re ready to upload the signed document back.
  3. Loading and sending. When the recipient clicks the Download and sends button, a window opens to search for and select a signed document on the local system. No additional action is required on the part of the recipient. If there are other recipients, the document moves to the next recipient. Otherwise, the work on the document will be completed.
