I then used the "Protect" tool to add password protection against editing. ![]() Keeping in mind I knew nothing about doing this, I took a word doc removed all the fillable fields that existed, imported it into Acrobat, inseted fillable text boxes, dropdown menues and calendar fields using the "Prepare form" tool. So I took the old word doc and converted it into a fillable pdf and using the "protect" tool I secured the document from editing and geve it to my coworker. Then our organization decided to do away with MS Office. Realising I was wasting paper and ink, I was shown how to add my signature(img) to Adobe acrobat and I was able to just drop my signature right onto the pdf image that my coworker sent me and email it back, no longer printing and scanning. Then covid and working from home happened and my coworker would email me the pdf image of this doc and I would print, sign, scan and email back to her. I would then review and sign, she would then scan and distribute. The document in question used to be a word doc that my coworker would turn into a pdf image and print. If signing is not allowed please and ask the coworker to remove the security from the PDF and share it with you. Open the PDF > go to File > Properties > under security tab, check the document restriction summary. Please check the document restriction summary and see if signing is allowed or not. If the PDF doesn't contain any signature field assigned to you, it is secured and signing is locked, we can not add the signature to the PDF file. What is the workflow/steps your coworker is doing to fill and send the document to you? Is he sending it as an email attachment or via Adobe Sign ?Īs mentioned your coworker secures the PDF file, would you mind sharing the steps he is doing to secure the PDF file? Are there any signature fields on the document assigned to you? We need some more information to better understand the issue: ![]() ![]() As described you are unable to add the digital signature to a secured PDF file. Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble.
