Step 3 - How to scan and upload your form
Here are the instructions for how to scan your completed signature font form for upload to our server.
1. Set up your scanner and scanning software in preparation for the scan:-
- Place the completed form in the scanner as straight as possible.
- Scan the image as a gif, jpg, tif or PDF file.
- Select a scanning resolution of 300 dpi (dots per inch). This is very important - setting the resolution too low or too high will not provide a satisfactory image. Font forms scanned at the correct resolution will be around 2,200 pixels or more wide, by 3,200 pixels or more high. If your form is smaller than this, you have not scanned it at the right resolution.
- Try to use the default settings for light intensity and contrast.
- Scan as a full colour image or 256 colour grey scale. Do not scan in black and white only.
- Scan the entire form. Do not crop the form - we can do that when we receive the image.
.2. Scan the form and save it as Form1 [Your Name].
- It is important to include your name in the filename of the form and your e-mail address on the form itself to help us marry it up with your submission form.
3. Once you have successfully scanned the form at a resolution of 300 dpi you can proceed with submitting the form for conversion. After completing the submission form and uploading the form image file you will automatically be taken to the payment page.
4. If you have any problems and are unable to follow these instructions, please go here to find out how to send the forms in the mail.
Please retain your form in case there are any problems with the scans and we ask you to re-scan and re-submit.
