Visitor Signatures - Additional Actions

Import and Export Signatures

You can Import and Export photos from your computer to use as your Visitor’s signature.

 

Export Signature

You can export an existing signature from the database to a file. To do this, click the Export signature button indicated in the Actions section. Once more a dialog window will be displayed in which you can specify the name and location of the file that must contain the signature.

You can choose the following supported file formats: Bitmap, jpg, emf, gif, png, and tiff.

Click on Save and the signature is exported to the selected location.

 

Import Signatures

It is possible that you do not want to capture a signature of someone because you already have his/her signature. If this signature is in one of the usual formats (bitmap, jpeg, png, etc.), you can use the Import signature function indicated to import it and store it for the selected record in CardExchange® Visitor.

This function is accessible in the following ways.

  • Click Import signature button in the photos tab of the ribbon,

  • Click on the Import signature icon when adding/editing a visitor.

If you have found and selected the file, click Open and the signature will be displayed in the Image Editor window. Here you can crop the signature to the right size and perform any other editing operations.

 

Remove Signatures

Signatures can be removed from the database by clicking the Remove signature button from the Actions section indicated. The user will be asked to confirm the removal operation with the following question.

This function is also accessible by clicking on the Remove signature icon when adding/editing a visitor.

When you click Yes, the signature will be removed from the database.

Copy and Paste Signature

The Actions - Copy signature option allows you to copy the signature displayed to the signature clipboard of CardExchange® Visitor. You can then choose another record and, by using the Paste signature option, link the signature on the clipboard to the selected record.

This function can be handy if the same record must be entered under a different name or company in the database. You do not need to capture a new signature. As long as you do not copy another signature and do not shut down CardExchange® Visitor, the copied signature will remain on the clipboard.
