Signature is blurry in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC

I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro DC version 2020.013.20074

Mac Pro 7,1 Big Sur (although this issue occurred when I was still using Catalina)

No matter what resolution I save my signature image at or what file type (JPG, PNG, TIFF), the signature appears low-res and blurry when I load it into Adobe Acrobat Pro DC

The signature is perfectly sharp in the original image and it has a transparent background

I have seen others post about this but it seems there have been no solutions posted (that I could find).

If anyone knows how to fix this (or, whether it even can be), I would really appreciate it.

Thank you

I was having same issue and was able to fix by doing the following:

1. took a screenshot of a small blank area of a Word doc (shift+Command+4)

2. On the screenshot page I then can create a signature by clicking on the top icon for signatures

. I used my trackpad to create signature and it worked really well.

3. I then added the signature to the blank screenshot by selecting it from the signature icon

4. I then enlarged the signature on the page and cropped it so that no excess space was there

5. I saved it and then was able to use from the PDF with the Fill and Sign function and upload image. Came out crystal clear.

Here is a screenshot of a portion of the signature as it is in Apple Preview:

Here is that same portion of the signature in Adobe Acrobat:

I had the same issue, and checked the box under the first color dot to the left of sign yourself to "retain the color of the original signature" cleared up the issue.
