This document describes the process of obtaining adobe signatures after DocuSign signatures have been completed within HR-RAMPS.

Download And Print The Document In Adobe

1. Click on the icon for the HR-RAMPS Workflow.
   
   
   
2. Scroll to the bottom of the View Summary window and click the icon to download the DocuSigned PDF to your desktop.
   
   
   
   
3. Open the PDF in Adobe. It will display a message at the top ‘Signed and all signatures are valid’. This is because it is a signed PDF. Adobe does not allow directly editing a DocuSigned PDF.
   
   
   
   
4. Print the PDF using ‘Adobe PDF’ print driver as follows –
   • Open Print dialog box using File > Print
   • Click on Printer dropdown and select Adobe PDF.
   • Click Print.
     
     
     
     

5. Save the printed copy of PDF to your desktop or the share drive of your choice.
   
   
   
   
6. Open the PDF in Adobe. Notice the ‘Signed and all signatures are valid’ message is gone. Signatures are still present in the document.
   NOTE: If you get an error message, click Ok.
   
   
   
   
7. Now you can add adobe signature fields as normal.
   • Click Tools > Prepare Form. Click Start.
