Term of the Day: Digital Signature

Digital signatures are a form of identity verification that can be added to word documents and PDFs. See directions or a video to show how to insert them in Word documents. Not to be confused with simple e-mail signature inserts, digital signatures are a means of authentication for legal documents, like letters and contracts. You can create your own simple one, or you can pay to subscribe to a company that will verify your signature.
