Searching the web, I found out that I should either use a self-signing tool or a commercial Certificate Authority. I also found that Adobe Echosign offers a free service (https://www.echosign.adobe.com/en/misc/realestateregisterc.html) I do not remember learning about signing signatures from the books I've read. I need some simple advice on what to do. What are the advantages of each method? Would you recommend Echosign? Or what self-signing tool would you recommend?
