Forms and digital signatures

Hi there!
 
I have designed a design request form (on a Mac) and would like to send this to my colleagues (who use PCs) in the company so that they can request work from me. I would like my colleagues to be able to digitally sign the form and send it back to me. How do I set up this system?
 
Many thanks in advance.
 
Mark

Hi i4design,

I would suggest that you add a digital signature form field to your design request form. This gives your colleagues an exact location in which to put their digital signature. Then Reader-enable the PDF. Your Windows colleagues will need Reader 7 or greater.

Hope this helps,
Lori

Thanks for the information Lori.

I have tested your advice and one of my colleagues has created a digital signature on the form I sent to him. I have one last question, however. How does my colleague set up a digital signature with his 'scanned signature' (on a PC with Adobe Reader 8)? I scanned his signature and gave this to him as a JPEG.

Thanks.
