合同寫作技巧：合同定稿
[ 2006-12-26 11:25 ]
辛苦的忙碌終于有了成果，合同終于要定稿了。但是收尾的工作也不能疏忽。下面是一些打印和簽署合同時必須要留心的問題，要確保你的合同萬無一失。
1. Print the contract on 24 pound bond paper instead of 20 pound copier
paper. Using a heavy bond paper will make it easy to tell the original contract
from copies. It will also last longer.
用24磅的銅板紙而不是用20磅的復印紙來打印合同。用厚一點的紙不僅容易和草稿區別開來，而且，保存的時間也要長一些。
2. Print on pages using the same paper, and if pages are changed, reprint the
document using the same paper. This will avoid an argument that pages were
substituted after the contract was signed.
打印整個合同要用同樣的紙，如果打印過程中紙發生了改變，一定要用同樣的紙再打印一次。這樣做，對方就不會說合同在簽署后被偷換了。
3. Sign the contract in blue ink, not black ink. This, too, will make it
easier to differentiate the signed original contract from photocopies.
最好用藍墨水而不是用黑墨水來簽署合同，因為藍墨水可以很容易地讓人區別出哪個是合同正本，哪個是影印副本。
4. Initial every page of the contract. Having each party initial each page of
the contract will make it less likely that anyone could claim a page was changed
after the contract was signed.
讓雙方在每頁合同上簽上名字的首字母（姓），這樣做可以避免有人懷疑合同簽署后被更改過。
5. Identify the parties and witnesses who sign by providing blank lines below
their signature lines for their printed names and addresses. This will make it
easier to find the witnesses if the contract is contested. And remember to
include two witnesses for commercial leases.
在合同簽名欄的下方留下一些空白行，以便合同雙方和見證人填寫他們的名字和地址。這樣，一旦合同引起糾紛，就能很容易地找到證人。要記住，一般的商業租賃需要兩個見證人。
6. Be sure that corporate officers include their titles, the corporation name
and the word "as." Failure to do this can result in personal liability of the
officer. The proper way to sign in a representative capacity is as follows:
ABC Corporation, a Florida corporation
By:
____________________________________
John Jones, as its President
簽名者如果是公司官員，一定要寫上他們的職務和其所在公司的名稱。不這樣做就可能導致這個官員個人承擔責任。簽約代表簽名的正確方法如下：
ABC公司，佛羅里州分公司
簽約代表：________________
公司總裁：史密斯.瓊斯
7. Add a notary clause that complies with the notary law.
根據公證法增加公證條款。
