A step-by-step guide on how to create a digital signature:

Obtain a digital certificate from a trusted CA:

There are many trusted certificate authorities that issue digital certificates,
such as DigiCert, Comodo, and GlobalSign. You can choose one that suits your needs
and follow their instructions to obtain a digital certificate. Alternatively, you
can create a self-signed certificate, which is free but may not be trusted by other
parties.

Install the digital certificate on your computer:

Once you have obtained the digital certificate, you need to install it on your
computer. The installation process may vary depending on the certificate authority
and the software you are using. Generally, you will receive an email with a link to
download the certificate, or you can download it from the certificate authority's
website. Follow the instructions to install the certificate on your computer.
