Deleting a signature from an Adobe document is a straightforward process that can be completed in just a few steps. Whether you want to remove your signature due to a mistake or simply because you no longer need it, this guide will walk you through the process of deleting a signature from an Adobe document.
Step 1: Open the Document
The first step in deleting a signature from an Adobe document is to open the file. You can do this by double-clicking on the document file, or by opening Adobe Acrobat and selecting the file from the file browser.
Step 2: Navigate to the Signature Panel
Once the document is open, navigate to the Signature panel. This panel is typically located on the right-hand side of the screen. If you don’t see the Signature panel, you can access it by going to the “Tools” menu at the top of the screen and selecting “Sign & Certify.”

With the signature selected, you will see a “Delete” button appear next to the signature. Click on this button to remove the signature from the document. A confirmation prompt may appear, asking you to confirm the deletion. Click “OK” to proceed.
Step 5: Save the Document
After the signature has been deleted, it’s important to save the document. Go to the “File” menu and select “Save” or “Save As” to save the changes to your document.
Alternative Method: Using the Edit Signature Tool
If you are using Adobe Acrobat DC or later versions, you can also delete a signature using the Edit Signature tool. Here’s how:
1. Open the document in Adobe Acrobat.
2. Navigate to the “Edit Signature” tool in the Signature panel.
3. Click on the signature you want to delete and then click on the “Delete” button that appears.
4. Confirm the deletion and save the document.
By following these steps, you can easily delete a signature from an Adobe document. Whether you made a mistake or simply changed your mind, removing a signature is a simple process that can be completed in just a few minutes.
