Questions? We have answers.
Are e-signatures secure?
Yes, Adobe's tools for collecting e-signatures are secure and tamper-proof. Once someone has signed the document, they cannot change the agreement afterwards — the document is locked down and cannot be altered. Once you've sent the document to be signed, all recipients' interactions with it are timestamped, too.
An alternative to using the free online tool is signing up for a 7-day free trial of Adobe Acrobat Pro. With this you can collect e-signatures with advanced authentication, among many other features. The tools are powered by Adobe Sign technology, which is backed by trust service providers (TSPs) and complies with regulations across the globe.
How do I send a PDF to be signed by multiple signers?
Requesting multiple people to sign your PDF is easy with Acrobat online tools. When you've uploaded your PDF and entered the first email address, simply add the other email addresses there.
Need certain people to sign in a specific place? You can mark up the PDF with where people need to sign. Once done, the PDF is sent to the first person on the email list. When they've e-signed it, it goes to the next person on the list, and so on. When everyone has signed, each recipient gets a copy of the completed agreement.
Will I be notified when my PDF is signed?
Yes. As soon as a recipient e-signs your PDF, you'll get a notification via email with the signed document attached.
