Signature

These properties are available:

Left

Specify the position of the signature from the left side of the layout. This property is only available if the report uses exact positioning.

Top

Specify the position of the signature from the top of the layout. This property is only available if the report uses exact positioning.

Width

Specify the width of the signature, in columns. If the report uses exact positioning, then this property is specified as a length.

Note: 

Occasionally, the signature text may appear smaller than expected, or this error message is displayed: "Signing error: Unable to create a visual signature. The signature field box is too small!" To resolve this issue:

• Increase the size of the signature box in the report layout.
• Adjust the report personalization settings accordingly.

To avoid display or error issues, make sure the signature's font size, font file, and text content fit within the defined dimensions of the signature box.

Height

Specify the height of the signature, in lines. If the report uses exact positioning, then this property is specified as a length.

Company Logo

The logo for the current company is used as image for the signature. The logo is retrieved from the Companies (ttaad1100m000) session.

Static Image

You can upload an image file in the Report Designer. The image is stored on the LN server.

Image Path

Specify a report input field that contains the path to the image file on the LN server.

You can create a report extension to add the report input field and set its value to the desired path of the image. Optionally, the report extension can also retrieve the image from an external source.

The image must still exist when the document is signed and the signature is filled in.

This option is available only if a report input field of the single-byte string type, with a length of at least 60 characters, is available.

Image Position

Specify the position of the image when both an image and text are used for the signature.

Text

Specify the text to show in the signature.

This table shows the variables that you can specify in the text; the variables are replaced when the document is signed:

Variable	Description
#signer#	The common name of the certificate that is used to sign the document.
#signerEmail#	Displays the signer's email address from either the Subject or the RFC822 field. If the certificate includes an RFC822 email, it is shown in the digital signature.
#date#	The date at the moment of signing.
#time#	The time at the moment of signing.
#signature.text1#	The content of the signature.text1 variable as configured in the report rule.
#signature.text2#	The content of the signature.text2 variable as configured in the report rule.

Horizontal alignment of text

Specify the horizontal alignment of the text within the signature.

Vertical alignment of text

Specify the position of the text relative to the image.

Font

• Use Roboto Bold to apply the Roboto font in bold.
• Use Noto Sans Condensed Bold Italic to apply Noto Sans with bold and italic styles.

Font size

Specify the font size of the text in the signature, in points.
