What is the drawing signature

A drawing signature is a digital representation of a person's handwritten signature created using a drawing tool. This type of signature is commonly used in electronic documents to authenticate the identity of the signer. By allowing users to create a signature that mimics their handwritten style, drawing signatures provide a personal touch while ensuring the integrity of the signing process. They are especially useful for businesses and individuals who need to sign documents quickly and securely in a digital format.

How to use the drawing signature

To use a drawing signature, start by accessing the document you need to sign within the airSlate SignNow platform. Navigate to the signature field where you want to place your signature. Select the drawing tool option, which will allow you to create your signature using your mouse, stylus, or touchscreen. Once you have drawn your signature to your satisfaction, you can adjust its size and position before finalizing it. This process ensures that your signature is both unique and legally binding.

Steps to complete the drawing signature

Completing a drawing signature involves a few straightforward steps:

1. Open the document in airSlate SignNow that requires your signature.
2. Locate the designated signature field.
3. Select the drawing tool to create your signature.
4. Draw your signature using your preferred input method.
5. Adjust the size and placement of your signature as needed.
6. Save the document to finalize your signature.

By following these steps, you can efficiently complete the signing process and ensure that your document is ready for sharing or further action.

Legal use of the drawing signature

Drawing signatures are legally recognized in many contexts, provided they meet specific criteria set forth by federal and state laws. In the United States, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce (ESIGN) Act and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) establish the legality of electronic signatures, including drawing signatures. For a drawing signature to be considered valid, it must be associated with the signer’s intent to sign and must be securely stored alongside the signed document.

Security & Compliance Guidelines

When using drawing signatures, it is essential to adhere to security and compliance guidelines to protect sensitive information. Ensure that the platform you use, such as airSlate SignNow, employs encryption to safeguard your documents during transmission and storage. Additionally, verify that the signing process includes authentication measures, such as email verification or two-factor authentication, to confirm the identity of the signer. Following these guidelines helps maintain the integrity of the signing process and protects against unauthorized access.

Documents You Can Sign

Drawing signatures can be applied to a wide range of documents, including:

• Contracts
• Agreements
• Forms

This versatility makes drawing signatures a practical solution for businesses and individuals needing to sign various types of documents electronically.
