Hi there? Is there a way of removing signature form a odd document? The Help is saying that removign the signature is possible until you have the doc open than not...?

Hi,

In the Acrobat Reader for iPhone and iPad app, you can modify a newly added signature before you close the currently opened PDF document.

Once you tap the Back button (<) in the top bar to close the currently opened document, the signature in the document will be saved and finalized.  You will no longer be able to modify the signature (e.g. resize, move, change color) or remove it from the PDF document.

Hope this clarify things for you.

This is a stupid feature of a pdf EDITOR app. Especially if you used the app to input the signature in the first place. Please remove. It adds significant inconvenience and does not improve security whatsoever
