--------------------------------------------------

If the form is Swiss in origin and is, for example, to do with the official signatories for a charity, there would need to be a box where specimen signatures would be provided by each of the officers. See the example (Anmeldung für Personalmutationen) on the PDF link provided above. The answer hinges on the meaning of '-art' in this context.
