I Have Acrobat DC and need to change my signature to blue ink.  How do I do that using this program?

    Hi Tom,

    Sorry to say but text color in Fill & Sign is only available in Black & White. Refer to the following forum threads which discuss more:

    Change Font Colors in Fill & Sign Tools

    How do you change the color of the sign and fill text to the color blue

    You may also vote for this feature using this link: Font Color should be available for change in the FIll and Sign – Share your feedback on Acrobat DC

    It's pretty easy to overlook, but prior to making the signature in the "sign yourself" box, select "change color." Select desired color and here's the sneaky part, there's a small box that you need to check below all the colors. "Keep signatures black." It is located in the pop up box of selectable colors at the bottom. Small font, very easy to miss. Then create signature in "sign yourself" or "fill and sign." Should work. Hope this helps. Was driving me crazy too.

      I was about to say that your solution didn't work for me, but fiddled for a while and discovered why. At least in my case, the text color button doesn't appear initially or if I select the "fountain pen" box, as shown below.

      However, if I select the "A" surrounded by a dashed box, it does.

       

      At this point, I can open the popup and, just as you said, there's the little check.

      I'm not 100% sure, but I think I had to delete and reload my signature to get this to work. In any case, if someone starts from scratch and follows these steps, they should be fine. Now, it seems that even in subsequent sessions (again, haven't thoroughly tested, but at least when I close and reload the app) my signature stays blue.

      I'm working with 2024.003.20054.

      Thanks again for your help! And I'm sorry for doubting you. lol

      I hope that the additional instructions and screenshots will be helpful to others.

      This feature is now available.

       

      In the Fill & Sign toolbar, select the Color Picker and uncheck the box "Retain original color for signatures".

       

       

      Just adding this answer to the record, in case someone else comes across this thread.

          Is this still a bug? I have to sign a sheet, but it needs to be in red font.  I cannot see how to change the color to anything but black.

          The color of a digital signature is of no importance. If you need it to be printed in red then using a digital signature is not going to work. Just use the Pencil tool and scribble your signature, or scan it and insert it as an image (you can also do that with a real digital signature, actually, which might be the best solution for this need).

          Um, it is important.  The system used for data entry is UNIX based and has different colors for differnent fields for the operators. Hence the reason we currently use RED for the signature of a correction rather than blue or black.

           

          It is unfortunate that this bug will not be fixed.

           

          Thank you.

          You can change the color of your signature and fill in tools, by clicking the dot next to the controls. 

           

          Make sure you uncheck "maintain original color for signatures" so that it changes to the color you select.

            By "dot" Kristerpher5C80 means the big blue dot, not the little black one.  Also, the "Retain original color for signatures" selection is located at the bottom of the color selection palette, after you click the big blue dot...  It defaults to checked.

              Hi guys recently had the same issue myself.

               

              so long story short I did this with an iPhone with adobe fill and sign app. Step 1:sign your signature in whatever colour pen onto a white piece of paper.step 2: go into signatures on app and click camera take a picture of your signature on a white piece of paper step 3 save and then it will apply your signature in whatever colour blue black any colour.if this does not make sense please say.

                How is not being able to sign in different colors acceptable. Please fix ASAP...........

                Many people that accept signed documents require blue ink signatures only, how are we supposed to advance and evolve into more cloud based document management if we are limiting our tools...................ridiculous Adobe. The more you do things like this the more power you are going to give competition.

                  I completely agree. At the bare minimum in order for us to conduct business we must have blue ink. Black is not accepted in multiple venues of my business. Please get this addressed.

                    How ridiculous is this of not being able to sign in different color..! Get this fixed ASAP as we need our documents to be signed in Green, Blue ink often. Or else we don't have any problem switching to Bluebeam PDF editor where we get many options (FYI, we use 16 Adobe all apps CC in my firm)
