4. Choose the SIGN BUTTON on the toolbar.
5. Click CREATE SIGNATURE.
6. In that window, choose either TRACKPAD or CAMERA option.
7. If using the Trackpad option, sign your name using your Trackpad.
8. If using the Camera option, sign your name on a white piece of paper using black ink, then hold it up to the computer’s camera.
9. When you’re done with either option, press ANY KEY to save the signature.
Now when you’re ready to actually use a signature, preform these simple steps:
1. Click VIEW > SHOW MARKUP TOOLBAR (or press COMMAND + SHIFT + A).
