1.2. Use the add-in
In this article, you’ll find step-by-step instructions for sending your document(s) through the ValidSign Word add-in.

1.2.1. Login
Start by logging in with your ValidSign account information. After you set up the signers, you can send the transaction directly for signature, or open the ValidSign designer to customize the transaction.

1.2.2. Create sign request

Who’s going to sign the document?
– Only me = You will be added as a signer yourself
– Me and others = You will be added as a signer yourself and have the option to add another signer. You can add another signer on the “adder” button.
– Only others = You have the ability to add a signer.
You can add another signer on the “adder” button.

1.2.3. How do I determine where the signature is in the document?
The moment you’re adding a signer, you have a “scribble” above the last name (see print screen below). If you click on it, a code (text tag) will be placed on the document where you stood with your cursor. Our application then knows where to get the signature in the document.

An alternative is the use of the Designer. The transaction is then created at ValidSign and you can use the designer to determine where the signature will be in the document.

1.2.4 Sending the transaction
If a text tag is included in the document, you can send the document immediately by clicking the “send transaction” button.

If text tags are not used to determine where the signature comes in the document, you can send the transaction from the “designer”.
