Is there a way to merge signatures into a word document?

We have a document that includes 400 separate pages that need the same two
signatures on every page. And maybe merging isn't the answer.

Your suggestions are needed

Thanks

You could use the footer. That's assuming the signatures need placing at the
same position on every page. Make a back up copy of the document and try
inserting one of the signatures where you need it then copy and paste it into
the footer

Hi Richard,

Thanks for the suggestion, but the signature is in a table - the table may
expand based on the information - so it will not be in the same place on
every page.

Thanks again

Hi Gladys

If there is a line of text the signature follows or preceeds eg Yours
sincerely, then a macro could be used to 1. find the text 2. tab to where you
want the signature then 3. insert the signature.

That is sort of what I am doing now. But I was hoping there was a one step
method or a quicker way for 400 pages.

Do you know if you can find and replace and replace with signature "tif" file?

Thanks again,
Gladys
