Add Signature Action: addSignature

The addSignature action is used to add a signature image to a PDF file, making it useful for digitally signing contracts, agreements, or other official documents.

Example: A digital signature needs to be added to a client agreement PDF file.

Steps to Configure:

  1. Select Set a Variable Value from the Action dropdown.
  2. Enter a variable name in Element Key (e.g., SignedPDFPath). This variable will store the path to the signed PDF file.
  3. Click on Form, select Functions, and choose PDF File Handler Functions.
  4. In the Cmd field, select addSignature and provide the following parameters:
    • FPath: Specify the path to the PDF file where the signature will be added (e.g., C:\Contracts\ClientAgreement.pdf).
    • imagePath: Provide the file path of the signature image (e.g., C:\Signatures\JohnDoeSignature.png).
    • Signatory: Enter the name of the person whose signature is being added (e.g., John Doe).
  5. Click Save.

Outcome on execution:

  • The signature image is embedded into the specified PDF file.

    1. Use a clear image: Ensure the signature image is in a format like PNG or JPG, with good resolution and a transparent or white background.
    2. Signatory name clarity: Use the full name of the signatory for accurate tracking and documentation.

  • The signed PDF file’s path is stored in the variable defined in the Element Key. This variable can be referenced in subsequent steps of the automation process using the syntax ${VariableName} (e.g., ${SignedPDFPath}).
