Adobe Acrobat: Signing a PDF document

1. First open the PDF document in the Adobe Acrobat Pro application.
   
   
2. Click the “Fill & Sign” button in the right pane or go to Tools > Fill & Sign and sign the pdf file.
   
   
   
   
3. Click the “Sign Yourself” button on the toolbar and select “Add Signature” to add your signature to Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. 
   
   
   
   
4. There are 3 ways to create a signature.
   
   
   
   a. Type
   By default, Adobe selects “Type” so you can type your name and have it converted to a signature.
   
   
   
   
   
   b. Draw
   Second way is to select “Draw” and then draw your signature using your mouse or a touch screen.
   
   
   
   c. Image
   Third way, you can also select “Image” if you’d like to sign a piece of paper, scan it with a scanner, and then add your written signature to Adobe.      
   
   
   
   
5. After creating a signature, click “Apply” to apply it to the document.  
   
   
6. Leave “Save signature” checked and you can quickly add this signature in the future to other documents. 
   
   
   
   
7. Position your signature where you want it with your mouse and click to apply it. 
   
   Note: if you choose to save your signature, you’ll find it easily accessible in the “Sign” menu in the future. 
   
   
8. To save your signed PDF document, click File > Save and select a location for the file.
