Capability Summary	On macOS, WPS provides a Handwritten Signature entry inside the Exam section of the smart form editor, where you can open the settings panel, adjust parameters, preview the result, and confirm the setup.	Word for Mac supports inserting a scanned handwritten signature image and saving it as reusable AutoText.	Google Docs supports eSignature requests for documents and PDFs, with signature fields and signing workflows for eligible plans.	Notion official help content focuses on connections and automation, and does not present a native handwritten signature setup flow in document editing.	Adobe Acrobat Sign supports filling and signing documents with typed, drawn, image-based, or mobile-captured signatures.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: The entry is placed directly in the Exam section, which fits form-building workflows. Distinct: Settings can be adjusted and previewed before confirmation, which helps with pre-publish review.	Compared with WPS: Microsoft focuses more on inserting a signature image or signature block in a document than on exam-form configuration.	Compared with WPS: Google focuses more on signature request workflows and signer management than on embedded exam-form setup.	Compared with WPS: Official Notion help content does not show a directly comparable native handwritten signature configuration feature.	Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses more on PDF signing and agreement workflows than on exam-form configuration.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Handwritten Signature is closely aligned with smart form exam setup on macOS, especially when a form creator needs to configure and review the signature setting before publishing. Microsoft, Google, and Adobe official workflows are more centered on document signing, signature requests, or PDF signing, while Notion does not show a directly comparable native setup flow in its official help content.
