Yes I saw that message. That is what I replied to. Your message talked about use of Adobe Sign, but did not try to present a clear descrition of what that program DOES. Without that, we could not think seriously about replacing it with free software, or even finding out whether there is already free software to do this job. But the message did give the name Adobe Sign as something that was useful for a job. I know you meant well, but the effort went astray because of the choice of what details to include. To raise the point in a helpful way, please include the firstset of info and leave out the second. -- Dr Richard Stallman Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
