"As a leading electronic signature software provider, we're committed to supporting the industry's most popular products," commented Rodney G. Vesling, President, E-signature Solutions at Softpro North America. "With Wacom's introduction today, clients in the US have a broader selection of signature capture devices to choose from.

About SignDoc

SignDoc installs in minutes and immediately enables clients to sign PDF documents with legally binding electronic signatures. Because SignDoc produces an Adobe compliant digital signature, all you need to validate the integrity of the document and the signature in the future is the de facto standard Adobe Reader. Further, SignDoc provides unparalleled flexibility to sign any document format using SignDoc's built-in PDF converter to transform the document to PDF and sign without requiring additional software or plug-ins.

For clients who are seeking a server signing solution or have custom integration requirements, SignDoc Web and SDKs are available to support these needs. The company also provides professional services as requested.

"Softpro is an excellent partner for us. In fact, over the past couple of years, many of our initial signature tablet implementations outside the US were designed and sold through Softpro. We trust their experience, appreciate their solid customer base, and like the fact that their esignature solution brings out the best of our products" said Michael Marcum, Director of Business Development, Wacom Technology Corporation.
