Feature request - PDF files - add text and signature
Hi,
you can submit feedback to Edge developers directly by using the feedback button on Edge.
on Windows use the shortcuts Alt + Shift + i to summon the feedback window.
and from any OS, press Edge (...) menu => help and feedback => Send feedback
you can also use this page:
https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/support
Edge insider builds currently have some of the features you're referring to.
for signing, there is this flag: edge://flags/#edge-digsig-enabled-pdf
just like in Edge legacy, you can now add text notes to PDFs
I've also demonstrated some upcoming changes here:

HotCakeX So, feature requests should be done using feedback button? on support page i did not find anything concrete how to suggest idea / feature.
I am using Edge insider, dev, latest v.90
Mentioned feature flag, #edge-digsig-enabled-pdf, seems for certification/signature checking, not for signing the PDF file.
Notes and comments, are not usefull for filling up PDF forms, like person name, date etc, to be sent to destination (like vendors, customers, agreements, banks etc.)So this is still feature request and I do not see any discussion and progress nor info on this.
Those are also, native, free, features of Adobe Reader for example 😕

Text notes or comments are of course not for filling out PDF forms. they are only for adding text notes and comment to PDF.
you should already be able to fill out forms on PDF.

HotCakeX sorry on my wrong info. PDF forms and fill - does work in Edge.
However, this is information from Adobe Reader that has:
- add text (not notes, comments) like name, date, City etc.
- add image (signature)
- digitaly sign with certificate, whole PDF fileI have also submited feedback in Edge. Here is screenshoort from free Adobe Reader - option Fill & Sign.
