Part 2: Other Methods To Add Image Signatures to PDFs

If you're looking for other ways to add an image signature to a PDF, then try one of these two alternative methods.

Adobe Reader

Adobe Reader is a popular PDF tool, and many users will already have this installed on their devices. If Adobe Reader is your tool of choice, you can add image signature to PDF using the process outlined here.

Follow the steps below to add JPG signature to PDF using Adobe Reader. Again, this process assumes that you have the signature saved as a JPG or other image file on your device.

1. Go to File > Open, and then choose the PDF document you need to sign.
2. Select 'Fill & Sign' on the right-hand side. This opens a new toolbar at the top of your screen.
3. Choose Sign > Add Signature > Image, then choose the saved image file containing your signature.

1. Drag the signature to the correct place, and resize it as needed.

This is an effective way to insert an image signature into a PDF file. One thing to watch out for is that it will only work using the actual Adobe app, not in the browser-based version of the tool. This can be frustrating if your device is set up to automatically open documents in the browser. To get around this problem you'll need to download the file and ensure you're opening it in the Adobe Reader app.
