What do I get when everyone has signed?
When the last person signs, Request Signatures seals the final PDF. You also get a certificate of completion and an audit trail, which together give you a record of how the document was signed. Keep them with the signed PDF in case anyone asks about it later.
Can people sign on their phone?

Should I use Sign PDF or Request Signatures?
If you are the only person signing, use Sign PDF. It is free, unlimited and runs on your device, so the file is never uploaded. Use Request Signatures when other people need to sign, or when you want an audit trail and a certificate of completion to keep with the finished document.
