SignDoc Desktop Feature: Virtual Printer Driver for File Conversion

SignDoc Desktop is able to work with every program that is able to create a print out. The virtual printer is a standard feature of the software with no extra cost. It can convert file types to PDF and TIF.

• The file which should be signed can be opened as usual in the corresponding application – for example Microsoft Word. 
• SignDoc opens and these files can be signed on instantly.

Most organizations judge PDF or TIF as the only acceptable archiving format as there exist international standards for those file types, like the PDF Standard ISO 32000-1:2008 / Adobe PDF 1.7. SignDoc Desktop opertes compliant to this standard. Wikipedia about... the Portable Document Format (PDF)

We recommend to convert files from programs of the Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel...) or Open Office primarily to PDF. This format can be considered safe for professional archiving. In doing so you also avoid compatibility isssues as created sometimes for example when using different file formats of Microsoft Word (.doc/.docx) or Microsoft Excel (.xls/.xlsx)
