Letters which appear in WorkExpo, including the letter to parent and letter to employer can have your signature embedded in the document.
This will save you time if there are multiple letters to sign. The format of the signature must be a image format (Bitmap .bmp)
Check the WorkExpo CD for a sample signature image file called UserSig.bmp in the ..Manual Install/Common folder
You can use Windows PAINT program to view your image file before saving.
Follow these steps to import your signature into WorkExpo:
-
Sign your signature on a small piece of paper.
-
Scan the signature and save it as a Windows bitmap file (.bmp)
-
Save the file in MS PAINT as a Windows Monochrome bitmap.
-
The image size should be about 1.76 cm wide by about 1.00 cm tall
or about 200 x 100 pixels. In PAINT choose IMAGE / ATTRIBUTES to check the size. -
Save the file with a .bmp extension.
-
Start WorkExpo and click the “Options” button from the main menu.
-
Click the “Signatures” tab.
-
Select signature being imported – either teacher or principal.
-
Enter the path and filename to the signature.
-
Click the “Import Signature” button.
Check the available options under “Use/Include signatures” . WorkExpo stores the signature internally in the database for future use.
You can also export a signature file, if necessary, from WorkExpo.
You may wish to do this to check if the signature is correct.
