Your Digital Signature Just Got a Personality Upgrade SAN FRANCISCO, June 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- To celebrate 25 years since the ESIGN Act made digital signatures legal, Docusign (NASDAQ: DOCU) will drop six new signature styles that let you sign documents with more personalized flair. Think of it as your digital signature's glow-up moment. Designed by typeface designers Libbie Bischoff and Lynne Yun, the new styles channel everything from boardroom energy to vintage charm. Because your signature shouldn't just say you agree — it says who you are. "We've spent over 20 years perfecting the science of digital agreements—the security, the speed, the reliability. Now we're adding in more of the art," said Allan Thygesen, CEO of Docusign. "As contracts get smarter and more automated, the moments where people express their individual identity become more precious. These new signatures are designed to help you show up as yourself in a digital world." The Generational Plot Twist
A new Docusign survey* reveals that only 51% of Gen Z signs their name in cursive on paper (compared to 80% of Boomers), and a quarter just print their name. Others rely on a quick scribble or jotting down initials. As cursive fades with each generation and important life moments increasingly take place digitally, digital signature styles are rapidly becoming a new form of self-expression. By the Numbers - Security is the top priority, but personalization is close behind: 64% say security is key for digital signatures—but 55% want personalization, too.
- Aesthetics matter to almost everyone: 78% care about the look of their digital signature.
- Signature styles reflect personality and generation: Gen Z loves "playful & modern," Boomers go "classic & bold."
- Signatures are deeply personal: Nearly 40% say their written and digital signatures are core to their identity—and that number rises with age.
The Visionaries Behind the Vibe
Libbie Bischoff of Type Du Nord and Lynne Yun of Space Type are two acclaimed typeface designers who understand that fonts aren't just letters—they're emotions. Lynne explains, "Digital signatures have served us incredibly well—they're secure, fast, and reliable. But we saw an opportunity to add another layer: personal expression. We wanted to create styles that capture the essence of who you are when you sign your name. Each typeface tells a different story." Libbie adds, "There's something magical about the moment you sign your name. It's personal, it's powerful, and now it can reflect your personality even more. These styles amplify the human energy that's always been part of signing." Meet Your Signature Match with These New Signature Styles "The Curator" - Clean lines, clear intentions
