Can blue prism set faksimile on word documents

[NicoleSchiller]

Today we had a request if it is possible, besides adding and copying Text out and into a Word document, that the robot also can read and set faksimile´s ( pictures of a handwritten signature) on the bottom oft the word document. 

Does anyone have experience with this and how does it work? Thanks in advance

HI Nicole schiller - I think you can do that by writing code stage either in C# or vb.net and also other option would be check whether copy to clipboard and paste to clipboard actions in MS word VBO works for  the use case

Yes, it's definitely possible.

I don't know what kind of documents you have and what's your process to construct them, so this is from my experience. It's possible that this doesn't suit 100% to your needs, but hope you can have some takeaways.
1) Prepare a general document template that includes all the handwritten signatures (you don't need a Blue Prism for this)
2) Set those signatures to the table (2 columns) so, that each on them is set inside a table row column #1
(As a result you should've a table having as many rows as you've the pictures of signatures)
3) To the table column #2 the name of signature, let's say "CEO" or "CFO" to identify the signatures

Now, based of your need case by case, you can remove the unneeded signature rows by using object "Delete Table Row" in BP Utility "MS Word". By using a template model the content can be kept up-to-date by a person who isn't a RPA specialist.
