Hi, I have a PDF document I'd like to be digitally signed by others via Adobe Sign. When users receive the document they'are unable to sign it with a digital certificate (they can sign drawing and uploading an image), buy I want that, every user has a digital certificate, can sign with the certificate.

 

When I prepare the PDF file to be sent by Adobe Sign I cannot see the type Digital Signature in the field options, I only can see Signature, Initials and Signature Block, but not Digital Signature.

Am I missing anything?

REgards,

Hi Jorge,

 

Thank you for reaching out, and sorry for the delay in response.

 

As you do not see the digital signature option under the signature field option, it might be disabled in your account settings.

Please use the following steps to check and enable the options:

1. Open the following link: https://acrobat.adobe.com/ and sign in using your Adobe credentials.

2. Click on your profile icon at the top left and select Settings.

3. In the settings window, go to E-signing settings and click on the Edit settings hyperlink.

 

4. Under the Account tab, go to Digital Signatures and check if the options are enabled or not.

 

 

Let us know if you experience any issues.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi
