Powerful features of the Banjo plug-in:

Legally-binding signatures

The Banjo plug-in complies with the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (US E-SIGN Act).  Signatures created with the plug-in carry the same legal weight as a handwritten signature, and can provide much better security.  

User-defined signature appearance

No other digital signature software offers this level of flexibility, precision, and control over the way your digital signature will look.  Signature appearances can be customized with an image of your written signature, imported graphics, user-controlled fonts and text sizes, and dynamically-updated fields such as the date and time.  And all of this can be positioned and scaled to line up exactly as needed on your signed PDF.

Immediate visual feedback

When any alteration, no matter how small, is made to a signed document, the signature immediately changes to alert you.   

High security

The Banjo plug-in complies with strict Adobe Acrobat standards for creating, securing, and verifying signatures.  Your personal information is protected with world-class encryption, and all access to signature profiles is password controlled.  Once a document is signed, the digital signature is bound to that document and neither the signature nor the document can be changed without invalidating the signature.

Ease of use

Designed for simplicity, the Banjo plug-in does all the hard work of creating a secure and customized digital signature.  From the appearance of the signature to the way it will be checked and displayed, you are always in control but never burdened with technical details.

Flexible signing methods

In addition to the standard Adobe Acrobat signing tools, the Banjo plug-in provides unique, patent-pending methods of signing documents that can greatly increase efficiency.  The Click-SignTM method allows you to sign a document with just one click, and it preserves the defined scale of your signature appearance.  And with Multi-SignTM mode you can sign several pages of a multi-page document at once -- a task that could take hours using other digital signature tools can be completed in seconds using the Banjo plug-in.

Multiple user profiles

Many different people can use the plug-in.  Each user can have a separate password-protected profile, where the signature appearance and option settings are stored.  And one user can have several different profiles as well -- one for signing contracts, for instance, and a different set of options for approving drawings.

Microsoft Windows certificate stores

Microsoft Windows provides a powerful and secure method of managing digital certificates (or digital IDs), which are an essential part of the digital signature process.  The Banjo plug-in works with this management system so that all your certificates, whatever you use them for, can be kept in one secure location.  And Smart Cards or Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) systems that use the Windows certificate stores will work with the Banjo plug-in as well.

Compatible with X.509 digital certificates

The X.509 format is the standard for digital certificates issued by Certification Authorities such as VeriSign, Identrus, and others.  The Banjo plug-in integrates seamlessly with these certificates, as well as with the simpler (and less expensive) self-signed certificates.

Allows multiple signatures -- or only one

Some documents require approval by several people.  Others should show only one signature.  The choice is yours, and the Banjo plug-in works either way to give you the flexibility and security you need.

No special hardware

You do not need to purchase special signing pads, fingerprint readers, or USB keys.  And no expensive server software or other applications are needed either.  With just the Banjo plug-in and Adobe Acrobat you will be ready to start creating digital signatures.
