How to Add Signature in Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word makes it easy for its users to insert signatures. All the tools are there and accessible anytime. Follow the steps below and you’ll be a master at adding signatures in MS Word docs in no time.

• Step 1: Open an MS Word Saved File

  
  Launch MS Word on your computer and open a document file that needs a signature. If none, you can just use any document file so that you can execute the steps as we go along.
  

• Step 2: Click on Signature Line Under the Insert Tab

  
  When you have opened an MS Word document, place the cursor on the line where you want the signature. After that, open the Insert tab and select Signature Line found in the Text section. This will open up the Signature Setup panel.

• Step 3: Enter the Needed Details

  
  Enter every needed detail in the Signature Setup panel. That includes the signer’s name, title, and email address/contact info. For the part of indicating the title, make sure that it’s accurate. For example, if the signer is a doctor, the title should indicate that.

• Step 4: Add Instructions for the Signer

  
  You can leave instructions for the signer in the Instructions to the Signer box. The instruction could be about the effects, ramifications, or new implementations upon signing the document. Keep it short and concise.

• Step 5: Click OK to Set Up the Signature Box

  
  Once everything is set in the Signature Setup Panel, click OK to finally set the signature box in the doc. And once it’s set, the signer can insert his/her signature digitally by typing his/her name or inserting an image file of credible handwritten signatures.
