Sign with a screen reader or a keyboard
Every step works with a keyboard, fields are labeled, a list view shows your fields and the page text as a form, you can type your signature, and "I need help to sign" tells the sender what you need.
What works today
- Keyboard. Every button and field can be reached with Tab. Start, then Next field, moves focus to your next field, required fields first.
- Screen readers. Fields carry their label and say when they are required. The progress line ("2 of 3 fields done") and each step of signing are announced as they change. Menus and dialogs (Other actions, the signature dialog, Decline to sign) close with Esc.
- No drawing needed. In the signature dialog, choose Type and type your name. Who signed is proved by confirming who you are, not by the drawing.
- Check before you sign. Before you sign, the page lists every answer you gave, so you can review them in one place.
- Zoom. The page follows your browser's zoom and text size.
- List view. Select List view above the document: every field for you becomes a normal form field (text boxes, check boxes, a Sign here button for signature fields), in order, with its page and whether it is required. Filling a field there fills it in the document. Read page N as text shows a page's text, when the PDF has text.
- Your language. Choose the language at the top of the page. The page reloads in it and keeps your answers, and the sender's emails to you use it too.
- Reduced motion. The page follows your system's "reduce motion" setting.
If something is still in the way
A scanned document has no text the page can read out. Open Other actions, then I need help to sign: choose what you need (a screen reader, large print, signing on paper, someone to help you sign, or something else), add a message if you like, and select Send. The sender gets it by email and can arrange another way to sign. Share only what the sender needs to know.
Sovrasign's draft accessibility statement says what is tested, what is not accessible yet, and how to report a barrier.
If you cannot sign because of a barrier, tell the sender: they can arrange another way to sign.
Questions about the document itself? Contact the sender: their name and email address are in the invitation and at the top of the signing page. Sovrasign cannot change the document or give legal advice.
