Is it possible to add a second signature (Adobe Acrobat Reader DC)?

[danielas54779922]

Hi,

I've downloaded Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (the free version).  I've added my signature but I'd like to add a second signature to my same user.  Is it possible to do it?

Thanks!

Daniela

Hi danielas54779922,

If you using Fill & Sign, then yes a second signature can be added.

But, you can add a digital signature twice as the document gets restricted for editing post signing.

Hi Anubha,

thank you for your help.  I've just realized I can add a second signature to 'Fill & Sign' using the second option 'initials' as I can add an image to it as well.

Would you know if a 3rd image can be added to 'Fill & Sign'?  Now I don't find any other option in 'Fill & Sign' that can allow me to do it.

Thanks and regards,

Daniela

Hi Daniela,

After adding signature and initials, you can add third signature by removing the previous one saved and then adding the new one.

And no second Signature??

I am interested in getting the answer to this follow on question. I have the ability to use my signature and initials to add either of those to a document. I would like to be able to use my wife's signature as well. Is that possible to load her signature into the program data base? If so, how do I do that without deleting either my signature or initials?

i need to know the answer to this as well.....

Guys - I agree, how can we add three signatures? There is no help section on this. Thanks

Hi, if you want to create multiple digital signature fields in a document you will need Acrobat PRO. In each of the Digital Signature Properties pop-up windows, navigate to the Signed tab, select the Mark as read-only: radio button, then select All fields except these in the drop-down menu to the right of this field. Select the Pick... icon and select

Use "Stamp" under "comment" tool. You can creart many signatures this way.

If you use stamp it also attached the background.  The signature does not add this block to the signature.  Is there any other way to add a signature?  I also would like to add another signature in addition to the signature and initials.

Use a stamp with transparent background.

[defaultknnm5d8zbc1q]

How do you do that? I have DC Pro but did not see that option when creating a stamp.

It is possible with Photoshop or Illustrator.

I have the same problem.  I'm switching from Nitro to Adobe DC, but will have to switch back as Adobe can only handle one signature.  This is stupidly inconvenient for any household with more than one person.  With Nitro, you can have as many signatures as you want.  C'mon Adobe!

[Scott_72]

For real Adobe.  What gives.  The older version of Pro / Reader you could have as many signatures as needed for aform.  Why would mess this up?  I'm here trying to trouble shoot all these forms we have created in the past and now that all systems are being pushed out with DC on them, none of our forms are working.  So frustrating to say the least!  Some forms are going to REQUIRE more than one signature.

It was never possible at Fill & Sign.

One workaround is to create and use the first signature on the document.  Delete the signature from Adobe.  Create a new second signature, then add the new signature to the document.

It's clunky, but it allows multiple signatures on the same document.

I used the suggestion of a previous post of using a stamp and it works extremely well.  First, I don't think some of the early post understood the question/problem.  Many of us need to sign documents as a couple; requiring two different signature.  I'm no professional or expert, however for the life of me, I could not find a way to store a second signature in the "fill & sign".  The suggestions of adding, using and then deleting and then adding a new signature every time really seem bonkers.....maybe it just me. So let me share step by step how I fixed the situation:

• sign signature using a sharpe on a full letter size paper making it as large as possible
• scan signature and save as a jpg file
• using "Publisher" create a new publication and insert the saved jpg signature.
• crop blank space to create a small area around signature
• under picture format, drop down the recolor icon 
• set as transparent color by clicking on the blank background of signature
• save image.
• back to adobe, under tools open comment tool
• find the stamp tool, drop down to custom stamp and choose create
• upload your saved signature image
• pick a category to save to (I used "sign here") and give it a name (I used hubby)

bingo, you have a permanent second signature !  to use it:

• drop down stamp, use the category where you saved signature and scroll down to the name of saved signature
• click cancel on Identity set up
• move and shrink signature to where needed
• click outside stamp area to set it place.

Hope this can help others with this annoying issue.  And if there is another way, Please share, would love to learn it.

What else can be used if you don't have publisher? I have to create the signatures on an iPhone.

I went back to using Nitro. You can have as many signatures as you want including initials.

you can use Paint, paint.net or many other free image editing tools, or the remove.bg website to get the image clean and transparent. Even MS Word and Excel have suitable tools in the 'Picture Format' tab
