Using the iPad as a signature pad

We would like to use an iPad as a signature pad for a document on as desktop computer. I've researched several apps but they all seem to want the document on the iPad but we will need to have the document on the desktop computer. We would like to be able to connect the iPad through its cable and use the iPad as a signature pad for the document(s) that require a signature.

These are work computer computers running Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Could you put the document on an internal web site?

Set up a web server on the pc.

You could crank up a screen sharing app on the pc which the ipad could access. Use can then sign document.

I'm drawing a blank. What were the names of those tablets you could use to draw on as input devices to computers? Could look for such an app in the app store.
