I used to use Acrobat Reader to sign my documents. Now I own Acrobat Pro DC and signing is not possible anymore. When I click on the Signature button it just doesn't do anything. Can you help?

Hi Brother.,. As I referenced I got it from Adobe support and its works. You can open a case with an Adobe specialist and request his help. Additionally, you can confirm the connection utilizing Sandbox or related.

Finally, the fix is here
---------------------------

As advised by Adobe support, the Acrobat Pro DC 64bit version still required some optimization , so he sent me the link for 32-bit and I tried, it's working perfectly. Link below.

I have the same problem, can someone from Adobe @akanchhas17094428 confirm that Praveen is supplying the correct solution? I am hesitant to download an unknown link.

Hi Amit,

 

As described above, Signing is not possible anymore. When clicking on the signature button it just not doing anything. There are a few things you need to check:

1- It could be possible, document security doesn't allow you to sign it. Open PDF>right click (Ctrl+D)> Document properties>Security>Signing

2- To apply signature, which option do you select. Certificate signature or Fill & Sign for simple signing?

3- If you can't sign any PDF, then make sure your application is up-to-date. Reboot the system first then Open Acrobat>help>check for update>close and reopen app.

 

Let us know if it makes any progress. 

 

Thanks,

Akanchha

Security says Allowed. Also - I can't do it for any documet.

I'm using the "Sign documents by typing or drawing a signature" button: 

This button just doesn't do anything. In adobe reader it was working great.

I updated the app and it still doesn't work. Also tried to reinstall.
