How to sign a document digitally
Updated over a week ago

Signing a document send via MyDocSafe is easy. Here we show what it looks like on a laptop.

The first step is to click on a button or link sent by email with the signature request:

In most cases the document will open up in your browser:

From here, one can:

- download the document for off-line reading/printing by clicking on the icon in the top right corner

After clicking on the Signature field, there are 3 ways to place the signature on the document:

1. by typing it

2. by drawing it or

3. by uploading a signature image

After placing the signature and clicking on "Add signature" the green status bar at the bottom of the page will show the progress. Here we have more fields to fill, therefore we can either click on the next box since it is visible on the same page or, if the next box is on a different page, we can click "Jump to the next field".

After filling out all fields, the document is ready for sending via the "Submit the Document" button.

What happens next depends on whether there are other people who should be signing the document. If so, the esign request will go to the next person. Otherwise, the process will complete and a signed version of the document will be produced and stored in MyDocSafe. A download link to the document will be emailed to all signatories and the sender. The link expires after 24hrs.
