Sign-It for AutoCAD PDF Print E-mail
CadsignCADsign is an application that allows you to embed a digital signature into an AutoCAD drawing (AutoCAD 2000 and above).  A construction project produces hundreds of drawings which are then collated, signed and posted to various sites.  Sending a secure signed AutoCAD drawing by digital methods enables clients to receive vital information within minutes rather than days, saving time and money and meeting deadlines.  It avoids having to print drawings to be able to sign them for documented evidence.

The benefits in brief:

  • Improves drawing security and control of documents
  • Eliminates the need to print out, obtain signatures and file paper drawings
  • Vital information can be received within minutes rather than days
  • Has the flexibility to fit into your current drawing approval process
  • Provides clear audit trail
  • Enables compliance with ISO9000 quality standards
  • Assigns ownership and improves accountability of data
  • Approval process is not limited to a physical location

You enrol onto the system by scanning your fingerprint and registering it with your handwritten signature. This only needs to be done once. You then use a fingerprint or password to "sign" the drawing.  Once the fingerprint or password is verified an image of the signature is digitally embedded into the CAD drawing.  The need for recreating your signature every time you sign your name is eliminated.

Anyone viewing an AutoCAD drawing will only need the verifier software (available free) which checks fields when loaded and enables drawings signed with CADsign to be displayed with their embedded signature data.

AutoCAD drawings can be approved using a fingerprint, password or handwritten signature. Sign-it for AutoCAD provides security with a handwritten signature entered in real time, by signing using a digitiser or input device.  Different types of signatures (initials only, full signature, etc) can be used much as they are when signing paper drawings.
