Adobe Fill & Sign-Form Filler

Edit and send PDF & Docs

Adobe Fill & Sign helps you blaze through the not-exactly-thrilling process of completing paperwork. Here’s how to get the job done fast with your iPhone or iPad.

Snap a photo of a printed form and Adobe Fill & Sign will convert it to a PDF you can edit.

Prefill your information

The key to form-filling mastery is to enter basic info – such as your name, address and phone number – in advance. Pen your profile by tapping the person icon, then enter your details.

Import your form

There are many ways to open a blank form in the app, but one of the slickest is to do a web search. You can also import a file from your device or iCloud Drive, choose an image from Photos or simply snap a picture.

Create a text field

Tap anywhere on the form to start typing, or tap the profile icon to enter a field you prefilled. To adjust the font size, tap the big or small A.

To add a special character (such as a check mark, X, dot or dash), tap anywhere on the form, then tap the three dots.

And if you have a form that requires you to enter one character per box, tap the three dots and pick the rightmost icon. (This tool will blow your mind.)

Tweak what you’ve done

To go back and adjust something you entered, tap it and drag to reposition it. To edit the text, tap twice.

Make it official

Now for the important part: to sign your name, tap the fountain-pen icon. Here you’ll create your signature and initials, which will be saved for posterity and, with a subscription to Adobe Document Cloud, be available in other Adobe apps.
