In my local government job I (and the people with whom I work) prepare staff
reports for the City Council; these staff reports are to be initialed or
signed by the department head, to indicate their review and approval of the
document, before being submitted to the Council. I like that the digital
certificate guarantees, so to speak, that the document has not been changed
since it was certified, and I like that a symbol (i.e., a red ribbon-looking
thing) appears on the electronic Word (2003) document to represent the
certification.
I'm wondering whether there is a way to have Word include a representation
of the digital certificate on the printed document as well. The ideal result
would be the insertion of the certifier's actual (digitized) signature so
that there's a conventional-looking signature representing the digital
certification. Any thoughts?
