You can add your signature as part of your digital signature.

First you need the signature itself. Write your name on a piece of paper at a normal size—you don't need to fill a whole page and scan it into Acrobat X.

You often see artifact on the text, such as the faint lines and dots in the background. Before using the signature, follow these steps to get the image in shape:

• In the Tools panel, click Document Processing and click Optimize Scanned PDF.

  Drag the slider right to create a high quality scan.

• The text doesn't need to be captured, so deselect Make Searchable.
• To improve the appearance even more, click Edit and adjust the filter settings.
• Click OK to process the signature then save the PDF.

Now follow these steps to create the new digital signature:

• Choose Edit > Preferences on Windows, or Acrobat > Preference
