The Signature component lets users sign the form by drawing with a mouse, a stylus, or a finger on a touch screen. The signature is saved as an image and can be mapped onto the printed version of the form, as many forms such as the I-9 and W-4 require.
For a signature typed in a handwriting-style font, use Typed Signature.

Record when the form was signed
