Did you know .... There is a UAlberta voicemail to email function?

Some of you may not know that your UAlberta phone line can send your voicemails directly to your email and given that we are all working remotely in some fashion this will alleviate the task of calling into your voicemail daily. This is a relatively simple change that can be made by either myself, Amy, or David or Joyce. NOTE: This can not be done for shared emails or shared phone lines.

Did you know ... how to do an e-signature?

Firstly, it can be tricky to draw your signature with a mouse so sign a piece of paper and either scan it to yourself or take a picture of it and email it to yourself. Once it's saved in Adobe Reader it's there for every form.

How to add a signature to a PDF:

  1. Open the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat Reader.

  2. Click on Fill & Sign in the Tools pane on the right.

  3. Click Sign, and then select Add Signature.

  4. A popup will open, giving you three options—Type, Draw, and Image. Once you're done, click the Apply button.

  5. Drag, resize and position the signature inside your PDF file.
