Remove / Disable the signature requirement on a Form

Hi Robert,

It sounds like you are talking about the prompt in Acrobat Reader that advises users to "Click "Sign" to fill out and sign this form. When you are done, you can save a copy by clicking "Done Signing"."  This prompt confuses and annoys a lot of people. You can make it go away by saving your form as Reader Extended. In Acrobat, Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save). Exact terminology varies depending on your version of Acrobat. Be sure to save a copy of the non-extended version of the form for future editing.

If you have just a few known users you could also ask them to upgrade to Reader XI, I understand it does not display the annoying prompt. Or you could ask them to ignore the prompt, which they can do - it does not effect the use of the form other than causing confusion.

Hope this helps.
