I am unable to add signature to PDF form

New Here ,
Dec 10, 2018 Dec 10, 2018

Unable to sign one specific form. I have tested this myself, where as we can sign other documents we can not sign this form. When we go to add signature it never pops up or appears on the form. If we delete signature we can recreate it but still it does not appear on the form. This seems to be the only PDF document having this issue.

Hi Toddl,

Looking at the information shared above if we understand your query correctly, you are unable to sign a particular form as signature dialog box never comes up? Are you using Fill & Sign tool to add signature and referring to the option shows in the screenshot below?

  • As this is the only form causing trouble signing, then you may check whether forms properties allows to add signature or it doesn't?

       Open PDF>right click "Document Properties"> Security>Document restriction summary> Signing "Allow or Not allow"

  • As workaround, you may once try Sign Out and Sign In from the application just to sync your login credential.

Let us know if its allowed for signature and still doesn't let you sign.

Regards,

Akanchha

I have just added Adobe. So I wonder if I did add Adobe correctly. There is an Adobe icon on my desktop, but when I click it, it says incorrect file path cannot open. The document in question is in my email. The documeny says it using Adobe. But even after apparently adding Adobe it will not let me sign the document. I am at a lost what to do here. Thomas
