A general procedure (the specifics depend on the hardware and software available to you)
1. Write your signature using a thick black pen.
2. Scan (use greyscale settings, 150dpi if you have the option)
3. Save the scan as a .jpg or .jpeg
4. Open MSWord
5. Use Insert > Picture > from File.
6. Browse to where you saved the .jpg in step 3. above, press OK
7. Your signature should now appear as a graphic in the Word document.
8. Choose Save As, in the Save dialog box that opens near the bottom, change the Save as Type to Web Page, and give it a meaningful name.
You should now have a web page (.htm) with your signature on it. You may need to rename the htm file to html, if that is what Notes recognises as a web page.0 -
If you don't have a scanner use your digital camera - it will work just as well.
