I don't have a lot of computer knowledge, but my manager wants me to put an electronic signature on a letter I'm sending. Do you know of any websites that can help me with this? I think you can use the mouse to make your signature. I am looking for something that has no cost. Any ideas?

So What Happened?

Maybe I wasn't clear. He wants me to add my own signature. There's no "add signature" feature or anything like that in the doc I'm using right now. It's just a plain word doc. My manager doesn't know how to do this either. Thank you for any ideas!

An electronic signature is someone's actual signature, scanned in as a saved signature "document" that you can access through your word processing program.

He wants you to hit "add signature" on the computer program and add his signature.

/s/ is the normally accepted stand in for a signature. I think it stands for "signed" and then you type your name.

We just have the computer room add them - so I'd suggest going to Kinko's or somesuch. You want a scanner to scan it in, and they can do that, and email it to you. But no - there's no "Mouse" made signature, sorry.

Just print it, sign it, and scan it back in.

If it's pdf, you can choose add signature from the menu (not special for the document, it's a feature of Adobe). In that case, you still scan a blank page with your signature, then basically copy and paste it onto the document following their prompts.

If you're using Microsoft Word, it should be easy enough. Go up to the top of your tabs and find the tab that says "Insert." Click it.

A whole mess of symbols/keys should show up. One will say "Signature Line" but you might have to wave your mouse over it to find it. Then click on that.

Another box will pop up with directions. Follow them.

If that's not what you meant, my apologies. :-)

I'd suggest using the business letter template within Word. That way the entire documented will be formatted like a business letter uniformly. You may have to copy and paste everything over, but it will look nice and professional.

Are you talking a scanned signature like Dad said or the disclaimer type signature. Anything that is always attached to your emails is referred to as a signature.

Every email platform is different but most it is settings and tools. There should be a tab for add signature. Then you type something in, attach a picture of your signature, put puppies....whatever you put in there will always be at the end of your emails though you won't see it while typing.
