How to save multiple signatures in Acrobat DC?

[NSEinsurance]

Is there a way to save more than one signature and initials under the fill and sign tools?

Can you explain how you made these stamps? I'm running into this issue and a lot of the government paperwork I'm doing doesn't accept E-Signatures since it's marked as such. They will only take "real" signatures.

here is the link to the thread on how to create a stamp, you want to create a custom stamp which is half way-ish down the page

Good luck 😄 

The file with the signatures will be in your adobe folder

C:\Users\(user name)\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\

there should be a subfolder named whatever version of adobe you use, mine is DC currently. once you have created a stamp, there will be a folder named Stamps containing a PDF of the signature(s). The first page is always blank, If you have multiple signatures, there will be an individual page for each signature, I make sure each is cropped down to the size of the signature. you can add pages here if you have more and I find it fairly easy to do it this way.

to use them in the PDF you wish to stamp go to comments tools and select the stamp. you can make shortcuts here, or leave them in whichever of the drop downs you want to keep them... 

clear as mud i am sure 😞  

if this process works well for you, i highly suggest saving a copy of the PDF with the signatures somewhere safe. when you upgrade your adobe program, it doesn't always carry over, and it won't carry from one program to the next. for instance i had adobe pro and when we switched to DC it wasn't there anymore, so i had to create the "stamps" folder and paste the signature pdf in it in order for my signatures to be available.

I work for state government. We prefer the Fill & Sign tool over the Stamp tool since once a document is saved the signature can't be deleted.

Create PNG Files

1. We have the person sign in blue ink, on a blank sheet of paper, at approximately the size they use to sign most documents.
2. Scan to PDF at 100% 300dpi quality.
3. Open scanned PDF in Acrobat and crop the signature fairly close on all 4 sides and export as a PNG file.
4. File > Export to > Image > PNG. (Keep files in our secure folders).

Sign a Document

1. Open a PDF to sign in Acrobat use the Fill & Sign tool > Sign Yourself (or other one for secondary signatures or initials) > click the "+" symbol > Image > Select Image > Navigate to your PNG files to add the signature to Acrobat.
2. If you want the signature to remain in Acrobat's Fill & Sign tool, check the box Save signatures.
3. Click Apply to place the signature on the document.
