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.，這樣做可以避免有人懷疑合同簽署后被更改過。這樣做，對方就不會說合同在簽署后被偷換了。用厚一點的紙不僅復印副本很容易，而且，它被保存的時間也要長一些。How to Print and Sign the Final Draft第七部分：怎樣打印和簽署最后的定稿合同。如果你存了很多合同的草擬版本，那么你就可以很容易地用文字處理軟件或者是CompareRite軟件來比較分析兩個合同版本。）43.
