Hard copies of documents are not as popular as they once were. Reason behind that is the growing acceptance of PDF (Portable Document Format) documents. From offices, colleges to even for personal use, PDFs have all the elements of a printed document that you can view, navigate, print, or forward to someone else. Initially developed by Adobe Acrobat, the PDF file can be used by anyone. But to make a PDF document official, we sometimes need to sign the document- when you sign a PDF document it means you approve the content as being authentic. However, if you are struggling to add your signature on the document, then here's a quick step-by-step guide for you on how to sign a PDF document using Adobe Reader. Let's have a look.

How to add your signature in PDF document

  • To sign a PDF form, you have several options - type, draw, or insert an image of your handwritten signature or initials.
  • First of all, open the PDF document or form in Acrobat and then click Fill & Sign in the right pane.
  • After that click the Sign icon in the Fill & Sign toolbar, and then choose whether you want to add your signature or just initials.
  • In case, you've already added your signature before, then you just need to select it from the Sign options. And then click at the place in the PDF where you want to add your signature.
  • Else, if you are signing for the first time, then you will see the Signature or Initials panel. You can choose to type, draw, or import a signature image to add a new sign.
  • Tap on Apply, and then click at the place in the PDF where you want to place the signature. If you want to move the placed signature, click the field to highlight it and then use the arrow keys. You can resize or delete the field.
