Impact for your signers
During the signing of your documents, your signers will be able to choose to materialize their signature on your documents by choosing to sign with their name (by dragging the cursor), or by choosing to upload an image of their signature as below:
Signers can upload images in JPG, JPEG, and PNG formats, with a maximum size of 5 MB.
It is important to remember that the visible signature image is essentially psychological and cosmetic and only materializes the signer's consent. However, the electronic signature, which carries legal value, is a cryptographic, immaterial, and invisible process that integrates into the PDF document format.
