# Accept only drawn signatures

The signature field allows signers to type a signature, upload a signature image, or draw a signature on the canvas. However, there are instances where a handwritten signature is required, for a personal touch and authenticity that typed text cannot replicate. To accommodate this need, it’s possible to adjust the settings of the signature field to opt for a drawn signature option.

To make a drawn signature mandatory:

1. Click on the settings icon () located on the right side of the field within the form builder interface.
2. Within the settings menu, you’ll find a signature format selector.
3. Select **Drawn** option from the dropdown.

Also it’s possible to disable the typed text signature type for your entire account via the [Settings / Account](https://docuseal.com/settings/account) page.

By offering this flexibility in signature options, users can ensure documents are signed in the most appropriate and professional manner, whether it be through typed text, uploaded image, or drawn signature.
