titleGenerate Signed Document

Generate Signed Document (GSD)


The activation of this option will generate a new PDF document, with the original content, in which the signatures of each signatory will be inserted. In addition, these signatures will be graphically represented in the document if the signature position values are added for each signatory. This new document is independent of the affidavits generated during the signing process.

To activate it we have to select the option "Generate PDF document with the signatures of the certification and each signatory":


If we have configured one or more personalized certificates for our site and user, we can choose one of them to certify the content of the document. If we do not have any certificate configured this option will not display.

For GSD we can define the signature position of each signer, for that, from the "New EviSign" screen, in the signatory data, you can configure the position of the signature to be presented in the generated signed document following the next steps: 

1. Once the previous option has been activated, the signature position option will be displayed in the signatory data.

2. When activating the field "Specify the signature position in the document", the fields that allow you to indicate the position of the signature are displayed.


3. Below is detailed how to create the box that will house the signature with the data entered in the fields.

The coordinate system of a PDF is made up of points, where the starting point 0,0 is in the bottom left corner of the document. The horizontal coordinates, or X, increase towards the right and the vertical coordinates, or Y, increase towards the top.

To represent the signature, a rectangle needs to be set, and what is requested in the signature position fields are the coordinates of the lower left corner and the upper right corner. With these points the system can determine the position, height and width of the signature box.
