Use of remote signature for dike users

Remote signature is also possible using Dike software (available for Windows, Mac and Linux at https://www.firma.infocert.it/installazione).

The application allows you to apply a graphic signature to the file, positioning it as desired within the document.

1. Download the application
2. Install the application
3. Once the installation is open, click on the icons at the top right to access the settings
4. Select the "remote signature" option
5. Enter the credentials provided when creating the remote signature
6. an OTP (One Time Password) is generated and sent, to be entered in the appropriate field and confirmed

This concludes the procedure for enabling remote signature with Dike. It is now possible to sign with remote signature without having to log into the web service.

To sign, simply upload the file to be signed, select the type of signature to be affixed, select the display of the signature in the document if required, and upload the signature image in the appropriate field. Go to the page where you want to sign and drag a rectangle into the space where you want your signature to appear. Press continue. When selecting remote signature, you will be prompted to enter the pin. If necessary, change the file name to avoid overwriting the original file. Then you are asked to enter the OTP sent to your mobile. Once the OTP is inserted, the file is signed.
