How do I add a signature field for recipients of a form to electronically sign in Adobe Acrobat?

[HEIR FRIEDRICH]

I don't want to sign the form myself. I don't have a list of people that I want to sign the form. It will go out to potential clients to sign.

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out.

As I understand, you are trying to send the document for signature to unknown recipients. Is that correct?

If yes, could you please confirm how you will be sending the documents for signature?

Let us know if the documents will be sent individually to the signers or there is a single document on which multiple signatures will be required. 

Please share more about the signature workflow you are looking for.

Thanks,

Meenakshi

This will be a document that is on a health care provider's website. Outside referring physicians will download the pdf from the site. Fill it out, and hopefully add a unique digital signature. Just one signature will be submitted with each one turned in.

Individually I am just want to add a signature box and a date box for them to use. I don't know how to do this because I am new with this software.

Tools - Prepare Form - Add New Field - Signature.

It looks as if the form recipient will need special software if they don't already have a digital signature. Is that correct?

No I am creating a form for staff in our company to electronically sign we have all been given access to electronic signatures. I am just wanting to add a place on a document for then to sign.

No. All they need is the free Adobe Reader.
