Sign Forms with Adobe Sign
Adobe Sign is an optional, paid e-signature service at PSU that provides the ability to easily send, sign, track, and manage signature processes.
Note: A department must enroll in the Adobe Sign e-signature service before anyone in that unit can use the service as a Sender. Please see Manage Adobe Sign for PSU Departments to learn more about how to set up the service for your department.

Respond to a Signing Request
When you receive a signing request, you can choose to sign via the email by selecting the Review and Sign link.
If your department has enrolled in Adobe Sign, you can also complete a signing request by signing in to Adobe Sign, and selecting the Manage page from the Adobe dashboard. Then select the Waiting for You filter to view agreements that are waiting for your response.
Instructions for both techniques can be found in the following Adobe Help article: Sign a document sent with Adobe Sign (Adobe Help).
