Adobe Acrobat E-signatures. Everywhere.
Acrobat DC brings e-signing capabilities to more than one billion devices around the world.
Now anyone can legally sign documents with a finger on a touch-enabled device — or with a few quick clicks in a browser.
More than just a signing app, Acrobat DC makes it easy to send, track and store signed documents, too.
Works in the enterprise, too.

Adobe Acrobat PDFs are smarter.
We invented the portable document format (PDF) more than 20 years ago to make it easier to share documents across operating systems.
We also invented Acrobat — the world’s leading PDF solution.
When you create a PDF with Acrobat or one of our online services, you get a smart file that displays fonts and formatting just the way you want it to. And that’s just the beginning of our story.
