Using a bitmap for signature

I created an application that fills forms. The form is filled by different
departments that enter their part based on a complex sequence of "invisible"
email that are sent according to which part of the form is being filled. All
users functionnalities are based are based on the database UserID login. Only
3 people have the authority to approved the final version of the form. Once
it is approved, we have to print the form, get is signed and scan it into a
PDF then email to our clients. Right now the form is aprroved electronically
with a set on conditions that enable or disable the approval button according
to the Userids. This is secure enough for us. To cut the scaning step, I
would like to scan the 3 signatures and store them in a database. The
signature would display as a bitmap on the single record report based on who
approved the form. I my main database I have a boolean filed approved_YN and
approvedby fields. I read everything I could find on this newsgroup but I did
not find what I wanted. Can anyone help.

Thank you in advance.
 
Bitmaps would be displayed or printed in Image Controls or Bound Object
Frames (I'd prefer the former). In a Report, you might have an Image Control
in the Footer with a DLookup function for retrieving the bitmap.
