How to Send the Same Waiver for Individual Signatures in Adobe Sign
Question details
The user needs to send a single waiver document to multiple recipients so that each person can sign their own individual copy, rather than everyone signing the same shared file.
- Product
- Adobe Sign
- Device & OS
- not provided
- Scenario
- Distributing a single waiver document to a large group of individuals who must provide independent signatures.
- Observed behavior
- Adding multiple recipients to a standard document creates a shared signing workflow, meaning the document may be marked as complete after the first person signs it, instead of generating separate copies for everyone.
Verify that you have an Adobe Sign Business or Enterprise account, as the bulk individual sending feature (Mega Sign) is not available on standard individual PDF Pack accounts. You will also need a prepared CSV file containing your recipients' email addresses.
Use the Mega Sign Feature in Adobe Sign
Utilize the Mega Sign feature to automatically distribute individual copies of your waiver to a large list of recipients using a CSV file.
Sending a standard Adobe Sign request to a large group groups them into a single workflow. To send separate copies, you must use Mega Sign. This ensures Acrobat does not crash from handling hundreds of signatures on one file and guarantees everyone gets their own distinct waiver.
Log in to your Adobe Sign account, navigate to the main dashboard, and select the 'Send' tab.
Choose the 'Mega Sign' option from the available sending workflows.
Click on 'Import Recipients' and upload the CSV file containing the email addresses of all the individuals who need to sign the waiver.
Upload your PDF waiver document into the files section and configure the necessary signature fields if they are not already placed.
Click 'Send' to dispatch the document. Adobe Sign will automatically generate and email an independent copy to each person on your CSV list.
Easily Create, Manage, and Sign PDF Waivers with WPS Office
If you need a lightweight and cost-effective way to manage waivers, WPS Office provides powerful PDF editing, form creation, and e-signature tools. You can easily prepare PDF waivers and distribute them without relying on expensive enterprise subscriptions.
- 1. Open PDF in WPS: Launch WPS Office and open your blank PDF waiver document in the WPS PDF editor.
- 2. Access Fill & Sign: Navigate to the 'Fill & Sign' tab on the top toolbar to access the signature and form tools.
- 3. Prepare Signature Fields: Add text fields and signature placeholders where the recipients need to fill in their personal details.
- 4. Distribute for Signing: Save the prepared PDF and share it with your recipients. They can open the file in WPS PDF, apply their signatures, and return the completed individual waivers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is everyone signing the same document in Adobe Sign?
When you add multiple email addresses to a standard Adobe Sign request, it creates a single routing workflow. The document is sent to the first person, and once they sign it, it may be marked complete or passed to the next person, rather than creating individual blank copies.
Can I use Mega Sign on a personal Adobe account?
No, the Mega Sign feature is exclusively available for Adobe Sign Business and Enterprise account tiers. Individual PDF Pack accounts do not support this bulk sending feature.
How many signatures can a single PDF handle?
While a PDF can technically hold multiple signatures, adding hundreds of signatures (e.g., 500) to a single file can cause the document to become unstable, excessively large, or crash your PDF reader software.
What is the best way to send a waiver to 500 people?
The most efficient method is to use a bulk sending tool like Adobe Mega Sign. By importing a CSV file of email addresses, the software automatically generates and emails a unique, independent copy of the waiver to each individual on the list.
