Unlocking Electronic Signature Legitimacy for Personnel in United Kingdom

How to eSign a document: electronic signature legitimacy for Personnel in United Kingdom

Hi Everyone, this is Sharon. Let's make an  electronic signature on our Mac that we can use   to sign PDFs and other documents. We'll make this  electronic signature on our Mac using Preview,   Mac's built-in image viewer. Then we can take that  signature and digitally add it to PDFs and other   documents with just a few clicks. Let's check  it out. The first thing we are going to do is   open Preview on our Mac. You can either click the  Launchpad and select "Preview." Or, you can click   on the Spotlight Search at the top right-hand  side of your screen and then type "Preview."   Click Preview to open. Notice the Preview menu  items at the top of your screen. Click on:   Tools > Annotate > Signature > Manage  Signatures…This opens the Manage Signatures   pop-up box and allows you to create your  electronic signature in one of three ways.   The first option is to use the Trackpad. Click  the "Click Here to Begin" button and sign your   name on the Trackpad using your finger. When you  are done, click any key on your keyboard. If you   don't like it, click "Clear" and start again. You  can also select a description for your signature.   Your signature will be automatically saved for use  when you click "Done." Now let's click on create   signature. The second option is to use the Mac's  Camera. The Camera allows you to capture an image   of your hand-written signature to use as your  electronic signature. For this option, sign   your name on a white piece of paper, so you will  have it ready to hold in front of your Camera.   When you're ready to capture it, click on Camera,  and hold the paper with your signature up to your   Camera. The image of your signature will render in  the window, and you can click on "Done." Now let's   click on create signature again so we can look  at the third option, which is to use your iPhone.   Make sure your iPhone and Mac are connected  to the same WiFi network in order for this to work. The iPhone option allows you to sign electronically  on your iPhone using your finger.  Click on "iPhone," then unlock your iPhone screen.   The signature window will appear on your iPhone,  then you can draw your signature and click "Done"   on your iPhone. That electronic signature is now  automatically saved in Preview on your Mac. Now   that we have our electronic signatures created, we  can use these to sign PDFs and other documents on   our Mac, like Word or Pages documents. First,  let's pull up a PDF that needs our signature.   In the top right, click the "Show Markup Toolbar"  icon. Then select the "Sign" drop-down and click   on the signature you want to insert. This inserts  the signature into the PDF as an image that you   can click and drag to place it where you want  to display your signature. You can resize the   image by dragging it in or out on the corner of  the image. Click outside the image to deselect,   and then you're ready to save your document and  send it out. Now let's take a look at how we can   use this electronic signature on document types  other than PDFs, on your Mac. Let's open a Word   document. First, we want to grab a screenshot of  a blank white area, so click Command + Shift + 4   and then click and drag your mouse to draw a box.  The screenshot will appear on your desktop. From   there, do a Control + Click on the screenshot,  and select Open With…Preview. Click "Show Markup   Toolbar," go to the "Sign" drop-down, and choose  the signature you want to use. Resize it up to   fill the box, and then go to File and click Save.  Now you can drag the signature over to your Word   or Pages document and place it where you want  to have your signature. Resize it as needed, and use it   as your new electronic signature on your Mac. If  you like this video be sure and give it a thumbs   up and share it with your friends!
