Got questions?

Here are some common questions from our customers that may provide you with the answer you're looking for. If you can't find an answer to your question, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

If you want to make extensive changes to a file signed by someone else or annotate, sign, or convert a locked (read-only) file, your best option to edit a digitally signed PDF is to contact the person who signed it and request the signature to be removed, receive an unsigned copy of the file, or to have them send you
Resolution Open the PDF document in docHub. Select the Prepare Form tool. Select the form field(s) to unlock. Open the form field properties window. Uncheck Locked checkbox in bottom-left corner. Uncheck Read Only checkbox. Re-check Locked checkbox and select Close
The PDF document is encrypted with password protection. You may be using a PDF reader that only allows you to preview files, not edit them. The PDF was created using an outdated or ineffective program that makes editing the file difficult. The editing software you are using is too complicated.
Open the PDF document or form in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader, and select Fill Sign from the Quick action toolbar. From the signature dialog, select the cross (X) sign beside the previously added signature. Select the X sign. To add a replacement signature to the document, select Add Signature.
Text-based PDFs are created when a document is saved directly as a PDF from a word processor like Microsoft Word, or similar applications. Text-based PDFs are editable PDFs (unless they have been password protected).
To make changes to a document, in the upper-right corner, select Edit Document Edit. If someone else created the document, they might not allow editing. You can go to File Save as, save it with another name, and edit the new document. Or you can ask the document owner to enable editing.
Log in to your Google account and open Google Drive. Upload the PDF file that you would like to edit. Right-click on the document and select Open With and then Google Docs. Your PDF will now be converted to a DOCX file so you can make changes if necessary.
To edit a PDF, open it in Word. This works best with PDFs that are mostly text. PDFs of book chapters or something that looks like a manuscript from a copier wont be formatted well in Word.
