HOW TO LOCK THE COMPLETED ELECTRONIC SPECIFICATION

HINTS TO PREPARE AND SEND A COMPLETED ELECTRONIC SPECIFICATION.

After entering all required information into the ‘fillable fields’,the Specification MUST BE LOCKED. It is then ready to email to Council, PCA or others.

Once locked recipients cannot change or edit the Specification as received by them.

SAVE A COPY BEFORE YOU LOCK A COPY.
You can then issue revised specifications if changes are required after transmitting signed copies.(Regularly save along the way as you fill in the required fields).

Open the Specification in Adobe Reader or your preferred PDF reader: text such as name, company, project name / title, date can be added. An image of signatures can be placed.



To lock the document
Adobe Reader
1. From the menu bar click 'Sign', and select 'Fill & Sign', then
2. Click the 'NEXT' button at the top right hand corner and select 'Sign as a read-only copy'. Click 'Continue'
3. Save a copy ensuring not to overwrite the original file.

Alternatively, Printing the spec to PDF will also lock the document (if your computer is set up to print to PDF)
