Can't open sharepoint pdf files in adobe on an ipad

Our business would like to be able to save a pdf with fillable forms on our sharepoint. We want the crew to be able to open the document in adobe on an ipad so the customer can fill out the forms and sign the document right on the jobsite using the ipad. I have found a way to integrate adobe document cloud with sharepoint, but that is a web-based application and does not have a signing option. I would like to be able to open the document in adobe, fill it out, and sign it and have it save in sharepoint again all from the ipad's adobe app. I really hope this is possible because it will help our business a lot! Please advise.

Hi,

 

Hope you are doing well.

 

In case of integration of Sharepoint with Adobe Acrobat Mobile Reader application, we don't have direct sharepoint tab in application. However, you can attach your onedrive which is ultimately synced with sharepoint and also with our app. In this way you can achieve what you are looking for.

Let us know how it works at your end. If you have any further queries please feel free to reach us.

Hi,

it doesn't seem to be the case. I cannot see any sync folders from SharePoint if I open the OneDrive Integration in Acrobat Reader mobile.

Hi there,

 

Hope you are doing well.

 

Assuming you are using an iOS device, you can open files stored on your device, from Adobe cloud storage, or from other 3rd party storage providers, such as Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive. The updated PDF file automatically saves back to the original cloud location.

For more information please go through 'Open file from device or cloud' section in the help page (https://adobe.ly/4cdyCXC)

Hi Amal,

thank you for getting back to me this quickly. The issue I'm seeing is that Sharepoint synced folder can be seen in OneDrive when opening OneDrive App. When i open Acrobat Reader and look through the storage I cannot see my synced folder from SharePoint, only "OneDrive native folders" if that makes sense.
