Therefore, take care of this issue in advance. To begin with, we will briefly talk about what files are, perhaps with an extension unknown to you.

• An XML document is a structured database that includes some information that is then available to the user.
• A file with the SIG extension is a digital signature document to authenticate the previous one. Therefore, we cannot work without it.

But what will the following instruction give us? After all, XML can be opened in a simple notepad and quite easily find the necessary information there. But what if you need to open an extract from Rosreestr XML and print it out? Then you will need the following way to launch documents from the federal service. Otherwise, you will simply be left alone with a bunch of codes and databases. But don't be afraid, it's not so scary: the following steps are very easy, so you will achieve your goal in just a few clicks.

The electronic signature contains information about the author and confirms the absence of changes in the electronic document after its signing.

To create a signature, you need a valid electronic signature certificate. For example, issued by the Certification Center SKB Kontur or another certification center accredited by the Ministry of Communications of Russia. The certificate is usually stored on a special medium - a token.

Note

As a result of signing a document, the service creates an electronic signature file stored separately from the original document (detached signature).

Signature creation process

	Go to section
	Select a document which must be signed You can sign a file of any format.
	Choose a certificate who will sign the document If the appropriate certificate is not listed, you need to get or install it (if you already have it on the token). You can sign a document in Kontur.Crypto with a certificate, issued by any certification authority.
	Create a signature file The service will save the signature file to the original document folder with the same name and .sig resolution.

Result

1. Its electronic signature as a separate file (detached signature) is saved to your computer.
2. The document and its electronic signature are stored in an electronic archive on the Kontur.Crypto server.
3. You can receive a link to view and download the signed document, send such a link to any recipient by e-mail, and also download a package of documents to your computer: the original document, the signature file, the certificate and instructions for verifying the signature.

Signature verification

Questions and answers

What should I do if an error occurs while signing?

Make sure 2 conditions are met:

• To work in the service, perform automatic computer setup.
• Before signing documents, you must install a signing certificate on the computer on which you conduct operations with electronic documents. You can also do this in the computer settings service.

If all the conditions are met, but you can’t sign, contact the 24/7 technical support service.

Note

If you are using a slow internet connection or signing documents larger than 100 MB, it may take a long time to save them to e-Filing. If you want to work in Kontur.Crypto with large documents, please send us an email.

Where is the signing of documents?

Sign, encrypt and decrypt documents on your computer. This ensures the security of the private key of the electronic signature. When verifying an electronic signature, saving a document in an electronic archive, sending a link to view and download a signed document, the information is uploaded to the Kontur.Crypto server. If this is unacceptable for you, do not use these opportunities.

This question arises when the owner of an electronic signature certificate needs to sign a document outside of information systems that already have built-in mechanisms for creating and verifying an electronic signature. Consider options for signing a document with a qualified electronic signature.

What is required to sign an electronic document?

• The final version of the document to be signed. Once the signature is created, it cannot be changed.
• A valid qualified electronic signature certificate. Within the framework of Russian legislation, a qualified electronic signature is the only type of signature that gives legal force to a document without additional agreements between the parties to electronic document management.
• Means of electronic signature. Electronic signature technology involves the use of a set of software tools that the signature owner installs on their computer. In the Certification Center of SKB Kontur, the computer is configured to work with an electronic signature automatically.
• Program for creating an electronic signature. These can be plugins, individual programs or web services.

Option 1: Install the plug-in for Office

For Word and Excel documents

Most often, you need to sign a document in Word format:

• employment or business contract,
• arbitration claim,
• application to the university, etc.

The regular function of the Microsoft Office package "Sign Document" does not allow you to create a signature that gives legal force to an electronic document. To create such a signature in Word or Excel, you need to install a special software module on your computer that will add this feature, for example, CryptoPro Office Signature.

This is a paid program, you can use all the features for free only during the test period. After downloading and installing the plugin on your computer, you can sign documents using the following algorithm:

From the document's main menu, select "Tools" and go to "Options". In the window that appears, select the "Security" tab and click the "Digital Signatures" button.

In this window, select the required electronic signature certificate from those installed on the computer.

Use it to create an electronic signature for the document: click "Sign" and enter the password of the key container.

Things to consider when using the plugin:

• The signing algorithm differs in different versions of Word.
• If you create a signature in one version of the program and check it in another, the verification result may be incorrect.
• A document signed with CryptoPro Office Signature can be opened and verified even on a computer where this program is not installed.

Select the certificate installed on the computer with which the document will be signed. You can sign a document in Kontur.Crypto with a certificate issued by any certification authority.

Create a signature file. After you click the "Sign" button, the service will create a folder with the original document and a signature with the same name and resolution.sig. The folder will store the file and its signature on the server. These documents can be downloaded to the user's computer.

Send the document to the recipient. You can send a file and a signature for it directly from the service. The recipient will receive a link to the document saved in Kontur.Crypto.

SIG format- a file containing an electronic digital signature (for example, for documents sent by e-mail).

Files with the .sig extension are familiar to all email users. They are used all over the world, so letters with them are displayed the same way anywhere in the world.

Note that the file in SIG format is a small text document. It is automatically attached to the end of the email. Its content is determined by the mail user himself.

Typically, a SIG file contains the sender's name and email address. These files are better known as electronic signatures. If necessary, you can change it - add any information you need. For example, in messages that are sent at work, you can add information about the company to the electronic signature, for example, its name, your position, as well as various contact information, for example, phones, skype.

Most currently known mail programs allow you to create and read an electronic signature. Note that files with the SIG extension are added to an email message at the time it is created.

How to open SIG

Users sometimes wonder which program to open a SIG file on a computer. To open and view documents in the SIG format, these programs are most often used: Notepad, Atom, Mozilla Thunderbird, Microsoft Outlook.

To do this, you need to go to the online EDS signature page, then upload the file that you want to sign. You should already have an EDS certificate installed, selecting which you need to click the "Sign" button.

After these steps, a separate file will be created - a detached signature with the extension .sig, which will be saved to your browser's downloads folder.

How to sign an EDS document in Word MS Office

For the latest versions of Microsoft Word, click “File” and in the window that opens, hover over the “Details” tab and select the “Add digital signature (CRYPTO-PRO)” item. If you do not see this option, then you do not have Crypto Pro and CryptoPro Office Signature software installed, or one of them.

After the done manipulations in the “Details” tab, updated information about this file appears, it is noted that it has already been certified by the EDS and is final for editing.

A very important point in filling is that after the electronic signature is set, no changes can be made to the file. If the data is corrected after these actions, the document with the digital signature becomes invalid.

Advice: if you still need to make changes, first remove the signature and only then change the file. Put it back on after you're done.
