Applying Seal Codes
After you generate a unique seal code, the final and most important step is to apply it correctly to your document. This code creates a verifiable, digital link between your professional seal and the specific document it's on, ensuring its authenticity.
🛑 Important: Correct Format and Placement
To ensure public verifiers can use the system correctly, the format and placement of the code are critical. Failure to follow this format will prevent the public from being able to verify your seal.
- Required Format: The seal code must always be preceded by the domain prefix. For example:
verifythisseal.com/RZD-X35D-M4X
. - Placement: The full URL and code should be placed directly under or next to your professional seal on the document. This context makes it clear what the code is for.
📝 How to Apply Your Seal Code
We offer several methods for applying the code to both digital and physical documents. You can choose the method that best fits your workflow.
Method 1: Using the Generated Image (Digital Documents) (Beta)
Immediately after you generate a new code, the success page (pictured in your attachment) provides a ready-to-use image of your code and URL.
- You can drag and drop this image from the webpage directly onto your digital plans or documents.
- Alternatively, click the Download Image button. You can then insert this image file into your CAD program, PDF editor, or other software.
Method 2: Typing or Handwriting the Code
You can manually add the code to any document. This is useful for handwritten notes or for use in the field.
- On the success page, use the Copy Code Only or Copy URL and Code button.
- Paste the text into your digital document's text editor.
- Alternatively, you can legibly handwrite the full URL and code onto a physical document (e.g.,
verifythisseal.com/RZD-X35D-M4X
).
Method 3: Using Stamping Tools
For workflows, you can use one of our digital stamping tools.
- Visit our Downloads page to find templates and resources for common stamping tools.
- Copy and paste you seal code into the popup dialog that appears when you apply the digital stamp stamp.
- Apply the stamp next to or under your seal on your documents.
📝 How to Get the Code for a Past Document
If you need to re-apply a code or get the image for a code you generated previously, you can access it from your dashboard.
- Navigate to the My Codes page from the main menu.
- Find the code you wish to use in the list of your generated codes.
- Click the View Link & Image button associated with that code.
- A pop-up window will appear showing the downloadable image and copy buttons, just like the initial success screen.
- From here, you can use any of the application methods described above.
✅ What to Expect When Finished
Once the code is correctly applied, your document is officially serialized and securely linked to your professional identity.
- Anyone who receives the document can now visit the URL to instantly verify that you sealed it.
- This process creates a permanent, auditable record connecting you, your professional seal, and that specific document version.
- Your document is now more secure against unauthorized duplication or alteration.
