To ensure your signature appears clearly and professionally in Word documents—both digitally and in print—please follow the guidelines below. These standards help maintain consistency and quality across all client-facing documents.
✅ File Requirements
- Format: PNG (mandatory)
- Background: Transparent only – do not use white, grey, or coloured backgrounds
- Crop: Tightly around the signature – no extra margins or blank space
✅ Preferred Image Size
- Width: 250–300 pixels
- Height: 80–120 pixels
- Resolution: 300 DPI
This ensures the signature appears crisp and balanced within your documents.
✅ How to Create Your Signature
- Use a dark, bold ink—black or dark blue recommended
- Write with firm pressure on plain white paper
- Avoid fine or light pens that may fade or not print clearly
- Scan at 300 DPI, or take a well-lit photo with no shadows
- Crop tightly to remove extra space
- Remove the background using one of the following tools:
- remove.bg
- Photoshop
- Canva Pro
- Save the final version as a transparent PNG file
✅ How It Will Be Used
- Your signature will be inserted into Word documents with a –0.5 cm left margin offset
- This allows the signature to sit more naturally in layouts, especially those with left-leaning or right-sloped styles
- Please test your image to make sure the positioning looks right
❌ What Not to Submit
- Do not send Word documents with signatures embedded
- We only require the final signature image, properly formatted
