Instructions and Help about Switch from DocuSign to pdfFiller for a Sign PDF by Typing your Signatures Solution For Free

Have you ever needed to sign a PDF form like a registration or application form that you needed to complete online? In the past you probably had to print the form, fill it out, sign it and either scan it or send a hard copy to wherever it needed to go. Besides needing a printer and a scanner, the whole process is incredibly time-consuming. Now there is a far easier way to add signatures to PDF forms. You can simply use pdfFiller! To get started, upload a form to your account or open a document that’s already there. When you open the form, you will see a toolbar along the top of the page where you will see the “Sign” button.

Click on the “Sign” button and start Signature Wizard which allows you to type, draw, sign, upload or capture a signature. pdfFiller verified signatures can be added with one click and are automatically saved for later use. To type in your signature, simply click the T icon and type your name. Your signature will appear in a handwritten font. To draw your signature, click the fountain pen icon and use your mouse or trackpad to draw your signature by clicking and dragging. You can also change the color and thickness of the signature. To sign with your finger, click mobile device and enter your phone number or email address. Open the link you receive via text message or email on your phone, and follow the instructions on how to sign an e-document with your finger. To capture a signature, click the webcam icon and allow pdfFiller access to your camera. Then simply sign a piece of paper and hold it up to the camera, so the signature fits inside the blue box. You can then choose to make adjustments to the scan, or use the signature as it is. To upload a signature, click the arrow icon and navigate to an image of your signature on your computer. Just like with capture, you can then choose to use the signature as-is, or make changes. Available edits include crop, lightness, contrast, flip, rotate, and auto-adjust. Once you’ve added a signature, you can use the arrow to move, and the tree icons to resize it. You can add as many signatures as you would like to. Your signatures will automatically appear in the signature manager, ready to be added to your documents. You can also remove any signature with the trash can icon.
