Fill and Sign no longer available?

Hello Everyone, 

    Before the auto updates, I was able to use the fill and sign option to input dates on my documents.  After it's updated to this 2017 version, I can't find it anywhere.  I know I can use stamps, but it's annoying to change / create a new one everyday as I use the fill and sign (formerly known as "insert initials")  I type today's date instead so I can just easily stamp today's date onto my documents.  I do not have access to reinstall the applications as this is for work and our computer does not have access to delete / reinstall applications without going through IT.  So am I missing something here?  did they remove it for this new version of Adobe Reader?

Version that I have is 2017.011.30070 any help is much appreciated!!!!!!!!!

    Hi Booooorin,

    As you have mentioned above, you are looking for "Add initials" option that you get when you click on Sign icon under Fill & Sign tool.

    Check the screenshot below if you are referring to the same option selected there.

    If yes, the option is still available in Adobe Acrobat Reader application.

    As it is an issue with the application installed on a machine at work, I would suggest once to contact your IT team.

    It may be possible that they might have made some changes at there end.

    Let us know if you have any questions or if you are referring to something else.

    Regards,

    Meenakshi
