    Hi,

    The changes you made inside Fill and Sign app becomes non-editable when you save the PDF after placing an Signature/Initial on the PDF. This is by design since placing the signature/initial is generally the last step in filling a form.

    You can always edit your changes before you place the signature/initial.

    Regards,

    I know this is old, but this IS annoying. Many a form requires initials for line items then a signature at the end. Yet initials will also trigger locking of the form. I know you can place the initials and not save immediately. But, sometimes forms are long, you have to come back to it. There should me a message stating do you want to lock the form when applying the signature. Let the user decide it's time to lock. And/Or offer to save two copies, one unlocked and one lock. So if the user needs to update they can. And/Or once saved offer to able to delete signatures, if signatures deleted then form unlocks again automatically. Forms don't behave this way with digital certificate signatures... those are way more legally binding then stupid digital "ink" signatures, but for some reason i can still modify forms if i digitally cert sign. So, odd. You think the behavior would be opposite if anything.
