  • Publication number: 20060179320
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and verifying an electronic document with embedded digital signatures. When an electronic document is generated, signature blocks are included that are used to store corresponding digital signatures. When each digital signature is generated, some of the attributes of the signature blocks are filled such that the digital signature references these attributes, such as a timestamp. Each signature block also includes a reconstruct attribute that is used when the electronic document and/or the digital signature is validated through reconstruction. Other signature blocks do not require a reconstruct attribute. During reconstruction, some data is removed from the electronic document such that the data is identical to a previous state. The reconstructed document is hashed and the hash result is compared with the decrypted digital signature. The electronic document and/or the digital signature is validated or verified if the hash result matches the decrypted digital signature.

  • Publication number: 20050138382
    Abstract: Electronic signatures valid in printed or scanned form. Electronic signatures are embedded in documents such that the electronic signatures are valid even when the document is scanned, printed or stored in paper form. A document includes a barcode embedded into the document. The barcode includes a unique document ID and a unique signature ID identifying the document and the signer of the document. The document also includes language embedded into the document indicating that the signer of the document authorizes paper versions of the document to be accepted as containing a valid electronic signature.
