I am a fellow TH-camr with my own channel.. and I was searching about how to sign a document with the iPad. Did not know it was so simple! I thought you'd get and pay some apps such such those from Adobe! Thank you mate for the infos! Obviously I've subscribed to your channel! It is always good to help fellow TH-camrs to grow their channels🙏🙏
Yeah it’s a nice feature. I think a lot of people get caught out by the fact that it doesn’t work this way with .doc files so you need to save them as PDFs before this works this way. Thanks for the support 😊
The signing part is indeed straight forward. With fillable forms I have the problem that when I want to sign and rest my hand on the iPad all filled in text disappears .
Doesn’t work for fillable form. To sign one of those tap pen icon, tap “+”, tap add signature. You can then size and move with a finger (NOT a pencil!).
Mine didn’t either at first , here’s what to do this is gonna sound very stupid but I took a screenshot of the document turning it into a photo then sent it back to files I turned it into a PDF there and the symbol appeared.
If the pen symbol isn't appearing it might be because you are looking at a word doc rather than a PDF. Easily done. You can open a word doc in Pages, save as a PDF, and then use this method with that new file. Apologies for delay in response, I don't seem to get notifications for comments at the moment.
The iPad recognises the differences between the pen and fingers. Most applications will reject the input from fingers whilst using the pen but it’s usually a setting that can be adjusted to taste. Hope that helps.
Is there something similar on Windows? I have hp envy x360 andHP pen. It is possible to put my signature in Adobe reader, foxit, etc... but I dont know how to sign one pdf document by more then one person.
I’m afraid that goes beyond the scope of this video. I haven’t used Windows in earnest for a long time so I’m not really that familiar with what the latest software for things like this would be. There are plenty of good esigning tools online (Adobe have their own in fact) so that may be something to look at for your needs. As for signing with your pen, I would expect you can use draw tools on a pdf with then pen so you should be able to sign that way.
What the 😮😮😮😮!!!!
I didn’t know I could do this. I just used my Apple Pencil to sign 3 legal documents. Thank you!

@@Joegreenofficial that is a great info to have too! Thank you mate! Really happy to have helped you by subscribing🙏

straight to the point and helpful. Thank you!
what program or app is used? Buying Ipad Air latest gen.
What if you got no pen icon?
If you’ve got no pen icon I would suggest that what you have opened is not a pdf, perhaps it’s a word file instead (.doc)?
Doesn’t work for me…there’s no pen icon…only share. I have 2021 iPad pro
Can you confirm where you have document open? And also is it definitely a pdf? This will not necessarily work straight away with other file types
thank you
Very very helpful video. Thank you very mucho.
Can’t see what you doing
Awesome, thanks

Is this the standard apple application?
It is but there are also plenty of document reader apps available too with even more versatile functionality
@@Joegreenofficial thanks! This is pretty handy. No need to print something to sign it and scan it again!
No worries. New video stuff coming soon that is hopefully just as useful
Mine doesn’t have the pen symbol at the top. And its a 2018 ipad pro

Thank you Sir!
Wtf what is this app called!?
he's just opening up a pdf on the iPad from the email (using preview maybe?), using markup feature of iOS that works on PDFs and Pictures
This requires no app, it's just part of the OS. You can use an app like PDF Expert to do a similar job too.
Thank you!!!
Hey, when i study with apple pen I can’t scroll the pdf with the pen, I only can draw with it why?? It really bothers me pls answer 🙏🏿🖤
I mean I can’t fully use the pen without using my hand to scroll or zoom in
Hi Joe, what if while using the pen fingers touch the screen, does the screen distinguish?
The iPad recognises the differences between the pen and fingers. Most applications will reject the input from fingers whilst using the pen but it’s usually a setting that can be adjusted to taste. Hope that helps.
Every single time I go to go sign it AutoCorrect to letters how do I stop that?
Tap the pen icon, tap the “+”, tap add signature
ive tried this, but the documents im sending are always blank when sent 😔😔😔😔
That seems very odd. When you say blank, do you mean completely blank or they just don’t have the markup you’ve added with the pencil?
YES !! its alwasy disepear all editation ! .. why is not possible to render your edit to stick it in PDF !?!?!?
ye! it happens to me too
Terrible sir. You sound really great but we can’t see anything
