SignDoc Standard now supports token-based AATL certificates issued by GlobalSign when the SignDoc Device Connector is installed on the signer's local Windows desktop computer. The SafeNet eToken 5110 Series is supported.

Personal certificates installed in the Windows Certificate Store are displayed by SignDoc Standard when SignDoc Device Connector 3.2 is installed. The signer can select the appropriate certificate.

SignDoc Standard is extended with a new signing method. Use "Personal certificate’" to indicate a signature field as reserved for a digital certificate residing on the user’s computer. The package creator gives you the ability to select a handwritten signature, photo capture, click-to-sign, signature image, signature stamp, or the default appearance defined by SignDoc Device Connector 3.2.

You can give signers and reviewers the option to download final documents from SignDoc Standard instead of sending them email attachments. Authentication is used to grant recipients access to the documents.

The ability to delegate a signing request to someone else to sign the documents is supported for recipients who need to sign via a trust service provider. The recipient provides the name and email address of the person to delegate the signing session to. The trust service provider remains the same.

SignDoc Standard adds support to always display the first page of a document in the Signing Client, whether or not it contains a required field. The configuration setting client.signing.document.display.firstpage.enabled for the account is introduced. If set to "on," the first page of a document is always displayed when opened in the Signing Client. If set to "off," the page containing the first interactive field is displayed when a document is opened in the Signing Client.

The cirrus.package.enforceSigningMode.default setting defines whether the signer signs the rest of the signature fields with the same signing mode that was used to sign the first signature field. This setting can be overwritten by a signing package creator if the setting cirrus.package.enforceSigningMode.overwritable is enabled.

The signing mode options of an already STARTED signature package can be updated if the provided signature field is unsigned, and the assigned signer has not signed any other assigned fields.

The SigningEvent plugin is extended with a new value to sign the audit trail of the final individual documents.

The new REST API call POST /rest/v8/packages/{packageid}/createFinalDocument gives developers the ability to handle use cases where the final container document needs to be initiated.

The default, pre-selected signature methods to create a signature package are no longer fixed and can be defined for an account. The configuration is done using the new setting client.signing.signaturefield.signingmodes.default.
