CoSign® Digital Signatures

CAD Applications – Bentley® MicroStation v8

We begin by opening a project in Bentley® MicroStation V8.

To view signatures or to add a signature, click the Digital Signatures icon.

The Digital Signatures window opens.

The window is empty, because the drawing has not yet been signed.

To sign the drawing, click the Add File Signature icon.

To select the certificate, click the Choose certificate icon…

.. select the certificate and click OK.

The signer may add the Purpose for the signatureand choose the option to Include References.

The user is challenged for a password.

The Digital Signatures window now shows John Miller’s signature.

The signature icon also indicates that the drawing has been signed. Once saved, this icon will appear whenever the drawing is reopened.

An alternate way of signing the drawing is to convert the drawing to a PDF and then apply the graphical and digital signature to the PDF file.

By double-clicking on the signature line, we can view the Signature Properties.

A valid CoSign signature is proof:

Signer Identity

Intent

Document Integrity
