According to ESIGN, UETA, and other laws, a valid electronic signature must have much more than just a bunch of bits on a page. It is not to say that putting bits on a page does not make a 'signature' it is just that the signature may not be enforceable. Should enforcing a contract be important, adherence to ESIGN/UETA is important. This means the signature must be a unique mark that is attached to or logically associated with the record in a manner that would indicate tampering if the signature or document were modified later. It also means the signing process must link a specific person to the transaction (usually through some sort of authentication), and there are a few other requirements about consumer disclosure and record retention that are required as well. If you do not need a legally enforceable contract, or are just dealing with internal approvals, pasting images into documents and not dealing with authentication or contract integrity is fine. All of this does not have to be complicated if you use a system like DocuSign, which provides a fully legal process, manages the flow of the transaction, and can be used with any document that can be printed, and is actually much EASIER than trying to copy and paste signatures an initials into your documents manually.
