The world is moving away from print-based forms. As technology advances customers are demanding more from the organizations they interact with. They are looking for businesses to simplify process for end users and to generate the best engaging experiences. Many organizations are moving to digital based form rather than paper-based forms to reduce fill time and streamline the complete process for end users to supply data to organizations.

One of the largest problems that organizations are finding through their digital modernizations is the requirement for a wet signature on the final document. This means that even though there can be a digital form for the user to complete they are still being forced to print the document, sign it and then submit it, breaking the continuity and flow causing frustration for the user.

Adobe has always been a leader in the digital forms space, and they have a solution for this wet signature problem.
