5 In the Get Time Stamp From box, choose a time service if you want to add
a time stamp to the signed files. If you do not want to add a time stamp,
use the default option No Time Stamp.
6 In the Comment box, add any information that is relevant to the files you
are signing.
7 Click Sign Files.
8 If the file you want to sign is read-only, the Read-only File dialog box is
displayed. Do one of the following:
■ To sign a read-only file, click Yes.
■ To sign all read-only files, select Use the Same Answer for All Read-only
Files in This Batch, and then click Yes.
■ To cancel the application of the digital signature to a single read-only
file, click No.
■ To cancel the application of the digital signature to all of the read-only
files, click Cancel.
Note If you chose either a Medium or High security level when you
obtained your digital ID, a message is displayed each time you try to attach
a digital signature to a file.
9 When all files have been signed, the Signing Complete message displays
the number of files that were signed. Click OK.
Files that were successfully signed display the text “Signed” in the Status
column of the Files to Be Signed list.
10 Click Close.
Note When you sign multiple files at once, the files become read-only files to
help prevent someone from accidentally invalidating a digital signature.
Digitally Sign an Encrypted Drawing
You can attach a password and a digital signature to a drawing file. The pass-
word must be attached first.
Modifications to files, including the adding of passwords, invalidate their
digital signatures.
