I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned it before but what makes Kevin's tutorials even better is the fact that there's no distracting or irritating background music! Thanks Kevin!

[@wamperth]

Even professional movies have irritating droning music, they have no idea how frustrating it is. Most times I just switch off. If I use music it is only seconds , dancing excluded.

[@iradukundafrank9021]

Thank you, sir, for your help

Kevin, at the risk of sounding corny, I have learned more from your videos since "discovering" you here in KZbin, than I did in high school when computers were still devices the aliens left behind. This imcludes the current "intro to computer applications" course I am taking now since returning to college after 35-years. Keep up the amazing tutorials my friend!! Thank you.

[@denisehall-6593]

If you're corny, Im just as good as you!

[@David-xl6go]

There is so much fluff on KZbin help videos its an absolute pleasure to find someone who not only knows the answers to many vexing questions - but you also explain it wonderfully. Thank you.

[@AboCryM]

If there was a competition for the best person to explain on KZbin , you would be nominated, awesome.

[@MarineGeek]

No Arguments there 😌

[@Toni-Marie]

Agree!!! Thankful that I found Kevin's KZbin channel today.

Thanks for clearing up the difference between a digital and electronic signature, most people think its the same thing.

[@mmx2775]

Hi Kevin, very nice video indeed. Well done! Here's another trick you may add to your toolbox when scanning hand written signatures. We used it years back on an multi-function-device in the office with a rather low scanning resolution. Instead of writing on the back of a business card, we used a regular printer page and a rather thick pen. This way you basically scan in more pixels for enhanced optical resolution. And when shrinking the scanned image to the regular signature size, you'll get a lot more pixels per inch, while the thick pen just appears as a thin line. Thus, much better resolution on the monitor or the printer. Note: The effect is obviously less when 'scanning' on the cell phone, as the photo taken is of a fixed size/resolution. However, you still benefit from taken the scan/photo at a 'convenient' (optical) distance and don't rely on the 'macro' features of your cell phone camera when getting to close to the object.

[@gerdine9258]

This absolutely deserves a tumbs up. You get a natural signature almost without any hassle.

[@oryanol]

I didn't know about this method. It's really good. What I did 5 years ago was scan my signature on a white paper, took it to Photoshop and extracted it as a PNG file. I'm always using it now

[@funventuresedits]

Kevin Stratvert is a KZbin God. Amazing video A few days ago I was searching how to sign a document for my school assignment. Thanks KZbin god (Kevin)

Any help here? i am using the newest onenote update..!

I watched this video as part of my paralegal studies program. Excellent video on presentation and explaining the various methods of electronic signature. I knew the PDF method didn't know the Microsoft office method. Thank!!!!

[@captainkeyboard1007]

I always wanted to learn how to make a digital or an electronic signature. That tutorial was great. Best of all, it came from no better person than a Microsoft expert. Since I have no smartphone with a camera, I wrote my signature on paper and scanned it to my computer. I saved it as a picture file. I hope to make the off-white background white.

[@matthewdouglastrueman]

Hey, I didnt know you could handwrite in onenote, thanks. Just an FTI, on android, if you press the pen tool then press and hold the pen option in the toolbar, aftera couple of seconds it brings up a colour palette to choose from. Im ssuming its the same on ios

[@blainekunkel7891]

Awsome Video Kevin...congrats on the move to your company....It may be helpful in the scanned signature portion how to create a transparent background for the scanned signature so the "signature stamp" could be inserted into a document without blocking out the signature lines when signing pdf forms. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

This has been a feature on Macs for over 10 years. I did all of the signatures on real estate purchase without printing out a single document in 2012. Can't believe this is still a thing.

[@larsonstudios]

Very cool, Kevin! Thanks!

[@babajao]

That's ok. I prefer to edit the signature in a photo editor, create transparency and remove the background then save as PNG. This way the signature looks realistic without that white box around it. Takes a little more time but allows you more flexibility to sign even on different color paper, over text or images without affecting the original document.

[@maheshwurreeramchurreetoo5537]

Thanks Kevin. Very clearly explained.

[@Sabasoot]

Kevin, I know you did note the difference between digital and electronic signatures. It’s important to note that this electronic signature is nothing but an image, which means the recipient can easily extract it and use it too. And no one can tell the difference between their copy and your original.

[@rajanmathai]

Very good observation.

[@jefffuhr2393]

Yes, but... That can be done with *any* piece of paper you sign your name to.

[@jamesinabradshaw1799]

Thank youuu. Very helpful as a always.

[@vedrans521]
