Web forms are a great way to present your customers with a self-service method of signing a contract. You can create a simple sign-up form containing only a signature requirement as well as a complex multi-field document that collects user data and requires internal counter-signatures.

Start by creating your form as a PDF, and then use the Create a Web Form tool in Acrobat to generate an online version that anyone can sign.

To access the Create a web form tool, do one of the following:

In the Acrobat desktop app, go to the Tools center, scroll down to the E-Sign section, and then select Create a web form.
Sign in to Acrobat online, select the E-Sign menu in the top navigation bar, and then select Create a web form.

Steps to create a web form

Select the Create a web form tool as explained earlier. The Create a web form file selector page is displayed.
Add a file:

Upload (by search or drag-and-drop) the primary file that you are using to build your web form agreement.

The selector on the right of the Select a file button allows you to choose from the source where the file resides. The default is your local system.

Once a file is selected, the configuration page loads.
Name your web form (ideally something intuitive). The web form name is the default name of all resulting agreements generated from the web form.
(Optional) Add additional files if needed.

The initial file selected to start the web form is already attached.

Upload any additional file(s) that you require to build your online form.
- Multiple files can be uploaded.
- All files uploaded are concatenated into one agreement.
- The order the files are listed dictates how the final agreement will look.
  
  You can click and drag the files to sort them.
Add participants
- List the participants required to complete the form and select an action for each participant:
  
  Sign: Signs the form and may also enter data.
  
  Approve: Reviews and approves the form; may also enter data or sign.
  
  Fill form: Enters required data and submits the form, but typically doesn’t sign.
  
  Copied (cc): Receive notifications as form completion progresses.
The first participant listed accesses the form through your website, so their email address is not included (as it is unknown and will change for every signer).

Any additional participants constitute your internal counter-signers:
- Click the Add participant button to include additional participants (up to 36 max).
- Enter the email addresses for each "internal" participant.
- Assign the action for each participant.
(Optional) Configure the authentication for each participant by clicking the key icon to the right of the participant.

Email is the default authentication method for confirming the identity of each participant and is sufficient to obtain a legal signature in most cases.

You can increase security for a given participant by adding a second authentication method they will need to satisfy before they can interact with the form.
- Password: Requires the participant to enter a password to access the Web Form
  
  You supply the password
  
  You need to share this password with the participant out of band
- Knowledge-based authentication (KBA): Requires participants to provide their name, address, and the last four digits of their SSN (optional) then answer questions to verify their identity
  
  Powered by RSA and only available in the U.S.
  
  KBA is a pay-for-use service. Contact Sales to add this option to your account
(Optional) Add a password to secure the completed/signed agreement PDF.

You can optionally apply a password to the PDF copy of the completed (signed) document by clicking the pencil icon next to Add password (at the bottom of the page).
- If configured, the password must be successfully entered before the PDF will open for viewing
- When configured, the text under the setting header changes to show Password required to view completed form
Click Next in the upper-right corner of the window.
Add fields to the Web Form.

You can now add the necessary fields to the Web Form.

Click and drag the fields from the right menu of field types.
- Fields configuration can include:
  
  Appearance
  
  Validations
  
  Conditional visibility
  
  Calculated values
- Be sure to place at least one signature for each participant with the Sign action
  
  Don't forget your internal counter-signers
When all of the fields are in place, click the Create button in the upper-right corner of the window

Poznámka:

Web forms are created in an Active state.

Once the Create button is clicked, the URL becomes accessible and the form can be signed.
View the Web Form confirmation page.

A confirmation page is shown verifying that the Web Form has been successfully created.

From this page, you can:
- Share the URL: Copy the URL to share the form with others as a link (ie: in email or as an href under an image on your web site)
- Embed Code: You have the option to copy the embed code in either HTML or JavaScript to embed your form as a viewable object on your web page
Additional options include:
- Previewing this web form: Opens the form in the first participant view
  
  This is a great way to test your web form as it will complete normally (provided all participants complete their actions)
- View your web forms: See all of the web forms connected to your user and their current status
- Create another web form: Opens the initial configuration page to create a new web form
