    The app you mention appears to be a book reading app, never used it but wouldn't be what immediately springs to mind for editing PDFs.

    If its been setup as an interactive form then you could use Adobe Acrobat Reader for free that has a Fill & Sign function; if its not been setup as an interactive form then Adobe needs a subscription... you could do a 7 day free trial but have to remember to cancel it to avoid paying. Alternatively there is the likes of Foxit that has a free version that is sufficient to fill in a non-interactive form and just use the freestyle drawing for doing the signature. 

    What you're likely to note, doing your signature with your finger rather than a pen is so much harder than you'd imagine!

    Cheers DGG!
    Would that also work on my phone? Samsung galaxy s23 plus.. It has a pen. 
    (I hoped the phone pen would work with the tablet but alas not.. or if it does, I dunno how) 😊 
  • Might want to check that they don't need a "proper" signature ie print it out, sign, scan, email?

    They're Android Apps so in principle it should... not an android user myself so wouldn't guarantee it

    It says... 
    "This can be done by scan and e-mail for ease"....

    I think I'll just pop down to Tesco and get it all done there 😊

    If you are scanning it then it is no longer a "wet signature" and nothing will be able to tell the difference between a photo of a signature flattened onto a PDF -v- a signed and scanned document. 

    Occasionally you get things wanting a wet signature but then they want the original not a scan

    That sounds good. Can you give more details, please?
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    I went to a Tesco superstore with the photography/printing franchise.
    Explained what I needed, he said I could email last page to their (Timpsons) email, he would print it, I sign it, he scans it and emails it back to me. I email it forward to where it needs to go. He deletes everything. 
    I decided to go for it, as apart from my name, there was no other ID info on the page that I emailed him, and I have used same guy in the past once for similar.
    When he finished, I said how much... he said £1.
