I need to have my form signed by me. I just need it to appear on there and thought that I would be able to add it to my pdf as a jpeg but can't figure out how. I fill these forms out and would like to be able to apply my sig when I'm done filling it out.
I would love to be able to just click a button and have my sig appear on the form, but I think then I would have to go through the digital signing ordeal. I have read a bit on the digital signing and it seems much more complicated than what I need. I know there are probably more benefits with digital signature, but I am wondering if my needs are more simple.....yes...or no.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
If you have a scanned image of your wet signature (ink) you can use that to create a custom stamp in Acrobat. Then you can apply the stamp to a document, size it appropriately, then as a finishing step flatten all fields in the document so all interactive elements including your signature are not editable/changeable by receivers of the form. If you do not flatten the document, anyone with Acrobat Pro could remove or alter it, so keep that in mind.
There are pretty good instructions on how to create your own custom stamp in the Acrobat Help file.
Hope that helps,
