Is there a way to send a signed PDF without saving a local copy?

[ebartelt99]

Hello,

I'm an IT specialist at my company, and our users have been having issues with the share feature since the 2019 update. Most notably is that they receive invoices that they need to digitally sign and return to the sender. In the past, they would open the PDF, use Fill & Sign to sign it, and click the Mail icon to email it back, never having to save a local copy.

I understand that there is the new unified sharing center (which we're personally not a fan of, and it doesn't look like we're alone in that sentiment) but I can live with it. The annoying part is that our users are having to agree to save a local copy before they can send off the signed PDF. Is there a setting we can disable so that they don't have to save a local copy before sharing it? This is rather annoying, and adds in several extra maintenance steps to what was once a simple one click process.

Any advice would be most appreciated.

Thank you,

-Elliot

HI, this Link is not opening, it says "Page not Found" .  Is there any way I can get an updated link, as I am having this same problem with forms.  I do not want the user to have to save the form before sending on.

Thank you,
