I just used a digitized copy of my signature. I scanned my signature and that's what I use. It'll stand up in court and that's all I care about. Honestly, an e-mail that says an agreement will stand up in court also, according to my attorney.

Wow, I am totally lost, now. I was searching the net trying to find a fax service in anticipation of having to send signed agreements back and forth. And now if I understand it, you can do this some other way by email?
Do you have to have a digital signature to do this sort of business? I was thinking that if you have a scanner, you could just physically sign an agreement that you receive electronically, scan the one with your added signature and PDF it back to the client? Are there advantages/disadvantages to digital signatures? It sounds like most have to pay for that service.

Hi Lanel,
I've scanned my signature but it is in pdf format. How do I add that to a document or email?
Amanda,
convert the pdf file to a jpg. The other thing you can do is to re-scan it and tell your scanner to save it as a jpg. This way you can insert the .jpg into your document or email.
I've also used Echosign and think it's a wonderful tool for getting electronic signatures.
I didn't even think about digital signature. A bit confuse on how to create it in pdf and how do you insert it on the document that you send your clients? Any guidance or step on how to create digital signature would be greatly appreciated.
