Adobe-Type Freeware

[Martin]

Hello,

I need a freeware that will produce an e-mailable document that will bear my
true signature, rather than an electronic, digital or scanned one.

I believe that one of the Adobe products can produce such a document, but
then again I'd sooner not pay for a software if there's a freeware
available.

I know that I can produce a Word doc into which I can scan my signature;
however, I prefer a doc that bears an actual signature.

Is there such a product? If so, thank you for any and all recommendations!

Martin

This is out of the help file in Outlook Express
To add a signature to outgoing messages

1. On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Signatures
tab.
2. To create a signature, click New and then either enter text in
the Edit Signature box or click File, and then find the text or HTML
file you'd like to use.
3. Select the Add signatures to all outgoing messages check box.

Notes

* To use different signatures for different accounts, in the
Signatures area, select the signature, click Advanced, and then select
the account you want to use the signature with.
* To use a signature on individual messages only, make sure to
clear Add signatures to all outgoing messages. When you compose the
message, on the Insert menu, point to Signatures, and then click the
signature you want to use.

Also here are some handwritng tools.

StrokeIt

StrokeIt is an advanced mouse gesture recognition engine and command
processor. What is a mouse gesture? Mouse gestures are simple symbols
that you "draw" on your screen using your mouse. When you perform a
mouse gesture that StrokeIt can recognize, it will perform the "action"
associated with that gesture. In short, it's a nifty little program
that lets you easily control programs by drawing symbols with your
mouse.

Martin, unless I'm missing something, that's impossible. The only way to
include your signature with an email is if it's an electronic, digital
or scanned version of it.

I believe that one of the Adobe products can produce such a document, but
then again I'd sooner not pay for a software if there's a freeware
available.

I know that I can produce a Word doc into which I can scan my signature;
however, I prefer a doc that bears an actual signature.

Please define "actual signature".

Is there such a product? If so, thank you for any and all recommendations!

Guess I'm missing something here. 80)>
