Signature995 uses native PDF encryption, offering a high level of protection for all your Internet communications, including legal documents and financial transactions. Signature995 employs Microsoft digital certificate technologies to create and validate digital signatures. It is both powerful and easy to use. Signature995 supports PDF documents (*.pdf), Microsoft Office documents (*.doc, *.xls, *.ppt) and Zip archives (*.zip) and UltraPdf documents (*.updf).

Unlike other PDF solutions, Signature995 is free to both the sender and the recipient.
