Hello,

I know how to create a Certificate-Based Signature, but Adobe Acrobat Pro DC seems to be extremely non-intuitive when it comes to creating a field for others to digitally sign using a certificate-based signature. I am the creator of the form and want people that open the form to simply click and have the signature populate.

When you're in form editing mode, you can click the "More" dropdown in the right-hand pane and select "Revert to Acrobat Form", and then add a digital signature field.

Signature field created:

Previewing signature field:

Signature field is not certificate-based and requires typing text, it's simply a form box that allows text at this point. Help is appreciated to allow other users to click to populate a trusted certificate-based eSign complete with the red ribbon signifying so. Am I doing something wrong?

This is a Adobe Sign form, not a Acrobat form.
