If you have a PDF that needs to be signed you will no longer need to printed, signed and scanned ... it can all be done from your computer.
Adobe Acrobat Reader has Fill & Sign which lets you write your signature on screen.
Read on for steps on signing in Adobe Reader, or scroll down to watch a video. You can even get Adobe Reader for your Android phone and sign a PDF, on your phone.
Make sure you have the version of Acrobat Reader. It should already be installed on Wise Group computers.
When you open the app you will see a menu ribbon at the top of the page with an option called Sign.
Click on Sign and from the drop-down, select Fill & Sign.
Select the PDF that you wish to sign electronically.
Once you have opened the file you can select the Sign yourself option in the menu ribbon -> Add Signature
You will be given the option to type, draw or add an image, depending on how you add your signature.
Click on Draw then add your signature with either a mouse or touchpad, or by drawing on a touchscreen laptop with a stylus pen.
Move the signature to where you want it to be placed. You can resize the signature here by dragging the corner of the box larger or smaller.
Be sure to save a copy of the pdf now that the signature is on it.
Ta-Da! You have successfully signed a PDF document without even having to print it off.

Hi, I can't find this programme on my laptop and it seems to be free only for 7 days via a trial. There seems to be a signing function in the existing ordinary Acrobat Reader on my computer, but the programme always collapses when I push that button...
