Hard copies of documents are not as popular as they once were. Reason behind that is the growing acceptance of PDF (Portable Document Format) documents. From offices, colleges to even for personal use, PDFs have all the elements of a printed document that you can view, navigate, print, or forward to someone else. Initially developed by Adobe Acrobat, the PDF file can be used by anyone. But to make a PDF document official, we sometimes need to sign the document- when you sign a PDF document it means you approve the content as being authentic. However, if you are struggling to add your signature on the document, then here's a quick step-by-step guide for you on how to sign a PDF document using Adobe Reader. Let's have a look.

In case you want to add an image as your signature, then first, sign your name in black ink on a blank sheet of white paper.

Now take a photograph or scan your signature. Make sure that the page is lit and that no shadows fall across the signature.

Now transfer the photo or scan to your computer. Note that it should be in JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, TIF, or BMP format.
