Digital signature

Adrian Spratt
I have no experience with digital signatures, but today I was asked to attach one to a document. I've looked up the subject online to find that applying the concept seems daunting. Any suggestions on digital signatures with JAWS?
For anyone interested, this blog page gives what seems like a good explanation of digital signatures and how to execute them in Office 2010: http://blogs.technet.com/b/office2010/archive/2009/12/08/digital-signitures-in-office-2010.aspx -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Correction. I'm looking for how to add an electronic signature, not a digital signature, with JAWS. I just discovered the two concepts are different.

An electronic signature is a picture or graphic which you can insert into a document which shows up as your signature as if you signed the document.

Digital signatures require that you obtain some sort of certificate that validates you are who you say you are. See the link I provided in the first post to this thread. An electronic signature essentially involves a scanned image of your handwritten signature that is copied into a graphic file that you paste into the appropriate place in a document. See my subsequent post, as well as Diana's, explaining the method.

So, I learned something this week, for what it was worth. I see no point to the electronic signature because it was be so easy to fabricate. Meanwhile, the digital signature is too hard to generate to be much practical use in most situations. -----Original Message-----
