Why can't the signature field be resized??

[Guest]

I have been looking through the forums and cannot find any good answer to this question although several people have asked.  This morning I had to send out a Document that had a printed name field, a signature field, and a checkbox.  The signature field covered the checkbox and for whatever reason, there is no ability to resize the signature field.  You can resize any other field, but not that one.  We need to have the ability to show everything on the Documents that we need signed and if this field is covering things, that's not acceptable.  Is that not something that can be done?

Hi,

You are right, the signature field (along with a few other fields like Initials, Signature Block) cannot be resized.

But as a workaround, you can just skip adding a signature field to your agreement. Adobe Sign will add a signature field if there is enough place on the page or will add another page having a signature field, thereby making sure it doesnt overlap any text.

Do let us know if this resolves the problem for you.

Thanks

This is still a problem.  On my documents, which are all created in Word with the same size fonts, the date of signing is huge and the signatures are small.  Please fix this.

Hi deannamb33,

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

You can resize the form fields in the form. However, it can be minimized up to a certain level. For more information on the form fields, use the following help document: https://adobe.ly/3WO8hKD. 

Thanks,
