Cutting down the time wasted on menial tasks, like having to manually follow up on various contracts circulating in your emails, gives you and your team the chance to advance your goals and focus on the bottom line. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">Some documents only require your signature before they are completed. This simple objective is made more complicated when signing a physical document because it requires you to print out the document, sign the paper with your physical signature, scan the document back into your computer, and finally send the file to the other party. Additionally, if you&#8217;re working in a certain field, for example, the arts industry, selling <a href=\"https:\/\/photo2painting.com\/custom-oil-paintings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">custom oil paintings<\/a>, a signature may still be required.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/product\/esignature-reimagined-with-dottedsign-v2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Electronic signatures<\/a> are a great solution to the burden of signing physical documents. You can receive the document with <a href=\"https:\/\/hunter.io\/blog\/email-verification-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">verified email addresses<\/a> on your computer or mobile device, add your preset signature to the signature field, and securely send it back. A process that used to take hours if not longer is now completed in seconds. Which can also be used to collect customer signatures as well.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">People are getting comfortable with virtual signatures, however, there are organizations seeking an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/product\/esignature-alternatives-for-b2b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">e-sign solution<\/a> to push their workflow to another level. Here you will learn the step-by-step process of how to use eSignatures in your business.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/features\/esign-pdf-bundle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"205\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/CTA-Blog-Banner-1_EN-1-1024x205.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-923982\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/CTA-Blog-Banner-1_EN-1-1024x205.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/CTA-Blog-Banner-1_EN-1-300x60.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/CTA-Blog-Banner-1_EN-1-768x154.png 768w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/CTA-Blog-Banner-1_EN-1.png 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Make_Any_Document_into_a_PDF\"><\/span><a name=\"_d6lxq6bmrrg7\"><\/a><span lang=\"en\">How to Make Any Document into a PDF<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">When looking to transition from signing physical documents to a more efficient digital process, the first step is converting the document into a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kdanmobile.com\/pdf-reader\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PDF<\/a> format. PDF is the most common format for signing documents. PDF files aren\u2019t editable and won\u2019t allow you to select or enter text. This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hashmicro.com\/document-management-system\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">document management<\/a> protects the document formats from possible edits before adding signatures. Converting digital documents to PDF format can be done easily once properly understood. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">The first way is by downloading the document on your computer as a PDF. The best way to do this would be through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kdanmobile.com\/pdf-reader\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PDF Reader<\/a>. You will see the PDF file in the Preview app and it\u2019s ready to send out. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">Once you have the PDF, you can upload it to a digital signature platform. This platform is a must since it can be useful in many cases. Whether you&#8217;re managing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vlmshealthcare.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">claims management<\/a> for your employees&#8217; health insurance, creating paperwork for a new deal, or signing other documents, these platforms will come in really handy. You then sign in using any app on your Mac, giving you instantly accessible documents. When the document is signed and ready to go, you can send the document by email or within the app directly.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sign_PDF_In_Preview_On_Mac\"><\/span><a name=\"_304cf6p9i2cc\"><\/a><span lang=\"en\">Sign PDF In Preview On Mac<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">For a Mac user, a very easy way to add your signature to a PDF file would be through Preview on Mac. Here are the simple steps:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">1. Open Preview on your Mac, and open the PDF file that requires signing.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">2. Click the Show Markup Toolbar button, then click Sign.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">3. You can capture your signature using your trackpad or the built-in camera on your Mac, or with your iPhone or iPad.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">4. Once completed, click the signature you have just created and add it to your PDF. You may also adjust the size to your liking.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"236\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff11-300x236.png\" alt=\"Sign on trackpad\" class=\"wp-image-819\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff11-300x236.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff11-1024x806.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff11-768x604.png 768w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff11-1080x850.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff11.png 1256w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"238\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff12-300x238.png\" alt=\"Insert signature\" class=\"wp-image-820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff12-300x238.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff12-1024x812.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff12-768x609.png 768w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff12-1080x856.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\uff12.png 1256w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"238\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3-300x238.png\" alt=\"Signature put\" class=\"wp-image-821\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3-300x238.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3-1024x814.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3-768x610.png 768w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3-1080x858.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3.png 1248w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_A_Better_Way_to_E-Sign_Your_Business_Documents\"><\/span>&nbsp;<span lang=\"en\">A Better Way to E-Sign Your Business Documents<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">Despite the convenience of using the default app on your Mac to add a signature to a needed document, it is not the most efficient or effective way for those who are looking to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/product\/esignature-reimagined-with-dottedsign-v2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">digitize<\/a> their document signing process.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DottedSign<\/a> can do much more than creating and inserting e-signatures to your document like what Preview does. It offers many more necessary functions that Preview can\u2019t. For example, DottedSign creates a streamlined signing flow, and it moves forward automatically when one completes signing.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/4.png\" alt=\"Signing progress\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">You also can easily track the signing stages of each document. If someone forgets to sign their part, the automatic reminder will send a notification either from SMS or email on your behalf.

This whole process would take minutes if not hours each week, and it requires numerous devices, such as a desktop, fax machine, and scanner, to be carried out successfully. The process of including physical signatures to each document not only slows down the workflow of your coworkers but also requires you to dedicate more time each week to physically signing documents.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">With an electronic signature solution like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/product\/esignature-reimagined-with-dottedsign-v2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DottedSign<\/a>, this process can be completed on your Mac or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/product\/how-to-sign-document-on-iphone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iPhone<\/a> within seconds and sent back instantaneously.

Also, do not neglect the protection of your data.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_Dates_Text_Stamps_and_More\"><\/span><span lang=\"en\">Adding Dates, Text, Stamps, and More<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">Aside from the standard process of signing and sending out PDF files, there is other important information that must be added to contracts such as the date, the checking off of various terms, etc. This is accomplished by adding various form fields to your document. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">For example, adding the date the document is signed, changing the file type, providing checkboxes for the signee, attaching an image file, and a radio button so the recipient may choose one of a series of options, as well as customizable texts are ways that you can make the document easier to interact with and lessen the burden on the parties involved. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">DottedSign\u2019s default setting lays out all of these features in a way that can easily be implemented into your documents to complete form filling. Additionally, you can set up your personal profile so that you do not have to manually enter your information each time. You have the ability to save your signature and initials in DottedSign as part of the settings so as to expedite the signature process on your next document. You only have to drag your signature into the proper location(s) and you\u2019re all set!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Inserted-features.png\" alt=\"Inserted features\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_Signatures_with_the_Trackpad\"><\/span><span lang=\"en\">Creating Signatures with the Trackpad<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">One of the great features of <a href=\"https:\/\/macpaw.com\/how-to\/using-mac-for-business\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">using an Apple Macbook<\/a> is that you are able to use your trackpad to sign any document. With your trackpad, you have the option to either use your finger or a stylus to sign in the signature box. Just click the \u201ctrackpad\u201d button when you are ready to sign and it will transfer the control from your mouse to the trackpad. Then sign the signature box and it\u2019s ready to send.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">Using your trackpad helps you to sign as beautifully as you would with a physical pen and paper. In DottedSign, you also have the ability to change the ink color of your signature to match the tone of the rest of the document. The visual effect of signing electronically can be even more beautiful than the regular physical signature.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Add-signature.png\" alt=\"Add signature\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Saving_and_Reusing_Signatures\"><\/span><span lang=\"en\">Saving and Reusing Signatures<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">As a cloud-based service, DottedSign syncs your actions carried out via any platform. When you create and save a signature on DottedSign, you can use this same signature not only on Mac but also on each device you own. Just log into your DottedSign account to access all your saved personal information so that you can receive, sign, and send out PDF files.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dottedsign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/My-signatures.png\" alt=\"My signatures\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">This allows you to have consistency amongst all of your signed documents and also saves you time and effort when signing a new document in the future. For this reason, the DottedSign signing process fits well within the connectedness that Apple users know and love.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lets_Get_Started\"><\/span><a name=\"_9m8xi4upel8\"><\/a><span lang=\"en\">Let\u2019s Get Started!<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">It\u2019s important to stay connected. Simply signing up and logging in eliminates the need to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.technource.com\/hire-ios-app-developer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hire an iOS developer<\/a> to handle complex system integration. This integrated workflow allows for effective use of time and keeps you focused on your most important tasks.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">Adopting an electronic signature solution like DottedSign cuts down the time spent on dealing with physical documents and ensures the process moves smoothly. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span lang=\"en\">Use DottedSign on your Mac to keep you connected to your workflow, with your documents signed beautifully and on time. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><span
