Create a signature

When you first attempt to sign a document using Adobe Acrobat Sign, you are prompted to create and save your signature for future use as well. At any time you can modify or delete your saved signature.

To create a signature:

1. Open a document and tap

2. Tap on a signature field.

3. In the Signature dialog that opens, create your signatuer using one of the following methods:

   • Type: Type your signature.

   • Draw: Draw your signature.

   • Image: Tap the image icon, select an image, and choose Done.

4. Check Save if you want to reuse this signature. Note that the label varies based on whether you’re logged in.

5. Tap Done.

Note

If camera or photo access is blocked, see Allow access to camera, photos, and more. To change or clear a signature, see Change your signature.

If you have a Document Cloud or Adobe Acrobat Sign account or use Single Sign On (SSO), you can save your signature for future use. Note the following:

• Typed signatures are automatically saved for later use.

• Drawn and image signatures are not saved unless you check the Save signature checkbox.

Allow file access

Signing workflows require access to the files that require signing. Granting Adobe Acrobat Sign access to your local and online files streamlines subsequent workflows.

To allow file access:

1. Initiate any workflow, such as ‘Send for Signature’ or ‘Get Signature in Person’, which requires choosing a document.

2. Tap one of the following file accesses:

   • Local documents

   • Local files in your gallery

   • Online storage locations (Document Cloud, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.)

   • Photos and document scan that you take on-the-fly

Search for a document

Document views which display lists of documents provide a search field. To search for a document, tap . You can search for any part of the text string in the display, including the file name, date, signer’s name, and so on.

View the quick access menu

Adobe Acrobat Sign allows you to quickly access the pending documents’ details without the need to open each document. From any document list, tap to view the quick access menu. From the quick access menu, you can:

1. View an agreement’s history.

2. Send reminders.

3. Initiate host signing.

Note that the available options vary according to the current context, and some items don’t appear on the menu if they are not relevant to that document or document list. For example, the completed documents list will only provide a link to History.
