Great Addition to my Paperless Workflow

This little app works great! I have used it with my MacBook Pros trackpad with a stylus, as well with a Wacom tablet on my Mac Mini. I easily used it with Word, Pages, and Mail. I tried signing a PDF form with Preview, but had no luck. However, it was very easy to sign the same PDF form in PDFPen Pro using the Scribble annotation tool. I found I could also insert small handwritten annotations into Circus Ponies Notebook. My signature looks smoother and more natural using the Wacom tablet, but it is very acceptable using the trackpad/stylus combo.

I like that I can choose an export color in Export Preferences as I like to use a dark blue pen to sign documents. The background on the signature is transparent, so the signature looks just right superimposed over signature lines in a PDF form. If the signature will be printed, it looks better if you choose the PDF format in the Autographs Export Preferences (the default is PNG format).

At first, I had a little trouble with the app, but realized it was only because I had "Ink" turned on in my computers System Preferences. After turning "Ink" off, Autograph worked flawlessly. The app is very Mac-like, and it is nice that you can choose between dock mode and menu bar mode. Overall, Im very pleased; this is a handy little app.
