This feature might be integrated into the document management or security settings. * **Create your signature**: You can create your eSignature using a drawing tool or by uploading an image of your signature. Some versions might allow you to type your name and select a stylized font. * **Apply the signature**: Place the signature in the designated signature field on your document. Ensure it is correctly positioned and sized appropriately. * **Save and secure the document**: Once the signature is applied, save the document. Acronis True Image will encrypt the document to ensure the signature and the document's integrity are maintained. * **Verify legal requirements**: Ensure that the eSignature meets all local legal requirements for electronic signatures.
