CoSign® Digital Signatures
After receiving his insurance policy, Jim Miller signed, scanned and emailed the receipt to his
Insurance Agent - Sarah Reynolds.
The Agent reviews the TIFF and begins the signing process.
To sign this TIFF document, she selects Print from the File menu.
Sarah selects the ARX CoSign Printer.
CoSign generates a PDF file using the application's Print command. This opens CoSign, allowing the user to digitally
sign the document.
The newly generated PDF opens in CoSign.
We can view the Default Signature Settings.

signed and sealed.
Sarah saves her document as a signed PDF.
Now anyone can verify Sarah's digital signature.
