Hello! Currentry stuck with this issue - I can't change digital sign font type. By default digital sign font - Myriad Pro. But with that font type some special symbols that my name has can't be displayed, because Myriad Pro doesn't support them. Where is the option to change digital sign font type?

Hi Adi

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble. As described you want to change the font of the digital signature.

 

The option to change the font of the digital signature is not yet present. However, you may try the following workaround and see if that helps.

Go to Edit (Win), Adobe Acrobat (Mac) > Preferences > Signatures > Under 'Creation and Appearance'  click 'More' > Under 'Appearance' click 'New' and select Import graphic to add the graphic/image of your name as desired.

Thank you @Serene_nature15C3 for your quick response!
This will only help with name in Graphic part of sign, but still won't help with specific symbols in Text part of sign.
Is there any custom workaround (patches mb) to get rid of Myriad Pro in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC? Replace it with Arial or something?

I do have the same issue. I can't change the default font in a signature.
The only turn around I found is to create the signature that doesn't show well and then delete the signature and then change the signature form font and finally click the form to sign the document with the proper font and correct appearance. 
Can't this font in the form be changed to another font by default?
