Does anyone know how to make your signature smaller on ABBYY FineReader? Every time I go to add my signature to a PDF it ends up being too big to fit into the required space and I have no idea how to change the size.

What does your signature… Mar 14, 2022

…have to do with FineReader? What do you mean under “add my signature to PDF”?

Describe in more detail what are you trying to do.

P. S. It never hurts to learn to ask good questions.

Apologies if I wasn't clear. I've added a picture to help demonstrate what I mean. There's a button in the toolbar that says "Signature" when editing a PDF. You can add a copy of your handwritten signature to documents but the size of the signature always seems to be too big, therefore I'm looking for a way to make the signature smaller.

When you click the Edit button, a rectangular frame appears around your signature. You can drag and drop one of its corners to resize your signature.

The question was perfectly clear to others. It never hurts to be polite.

FineReader vs. FineReader PDF Mar 14, 2022

She meant "ABBYY FineReader PDF", not the old OCR-only FineReader".

Agree. In fact, I had to google because I didn't know that FineReader is now more than just an OCR software.
