What is the Difference Between a Legible and Illegible Signature?

 

A signature depicts the name, surname, nickname, or a combination of them and is your identity. It reflects your public image. 

It tells how you behave in public or with common people and what you would like others to think of you, whereas your handwriting reveals your actual personal image. Your writing shows how you behave with close relatives and friends.

So if your handwriting and signature style is different, you possess different real and public image.

The more the difference between your handwriting and signature, the more the variation in your actual and public image.

The signature analysis follows the same principles as handwriting analysis. 

Though there are several signature types, here you will learn the difference between legible and illegible signatures.
