Signature Methods and eSeals
Live Signature
The User uses an input device to physically sign the document.
Voice Recording
The User makes a voice recording of the reason, date and time of the signing.
Signature Stamp
A signature stamp is a facsimile of your signature. It can be added to your documents without the use of a pen input device by using a standard password. The creation of the signature stamp is controlled by the SignatureOne® server Administrator when your User Profile is created and only you have access to the stamp. Never share your password with anyone or leave it written down where it can be found as this would allow someone to sign documents with your stamp as if they were you.
To add a signature stamp when signing a document, select Signature Stamp as your Signature Method. You will need to enter your password to place your stamp on the document. A valid User ID and Signature Profile is required to release a signature stamp.
Verified Signature
Signature verification allows you to verify that the signature on the document is not a forgery. Signature biometrics are compared against encrypted signature data stored in a user profile either on a SignatureOne server or locally that can only be created in a controlled environment by the SignatureOne server administrator. The signature data stored in these profiles consists of measurements of the individual's writing style or stroke dynamics which are unique to the individual.
When signing a document, select Verified Signature as the Signature Method. If the signature entered does not match the profile created for the User ID, an error appears indicating that the signature can not be verified and the signature is rejected. If the signature is verified, the signature will be placed in the document.
In order to use signature verification you must have a valid Signature Profile on a SignatureOne server which you are connected to through your network or have your template exported to your local machine after enrollment.
Password
A valid User ID and Signature Profile is required to use a Password for signing.

Sign-it Live Signature
The User uses an input device to physically sign the document. This method supports and automatically detects the ePad-ink and VeriFone® MX870 tablets.
