Of course my method can be used just as easily... Scan in the signature, then
convert it to a simple black and white bitmap. Any time the signature is
needed, just paste the bitmap into the document. The only time I ever need it
is to sign papers that are faxed to me, so instead of printing them out,
filling them out and signing them, then refaxing them, all I do is load the
B/W bitmap into Corel PhotoPaint, type the information in (my handwriting is
pretty bad too :) then paste in my bitmap signature and resize it. Simple,
effective, and FREE!! Gotta love it!
