How do I delete signed documents from Dropbox?

How do I delete signed documents from Dropbox? Once it is downloaded I would like to get rid of it so I don't just have a pile of documents sitting in there. I'd rather it be "clean" so when I log in...

My account is a free account with old signature files. I am on an updated mac. 

When I go to the more elllipse with the three dots it does not allow me to

delete these files, only allows me to download.

I have tried this on both safari and chrome browser.

How do I do this? Thanks

    Hey there, MBCrosstrek19, let's see what we can find together here! 

     

    When you say a "signature file" would you mind letting me know more? What is its file type? 

     

    Is there any chance that this is shared content? 

     

    Let me know more, ad we'll take it from there!

      Hi Megan,

      Its in my dropbox under the category signatures, file type pdf. Shared in the

      sense that it was a requested signature from me, however they received these files

      like 5 years ago and I would like to delete off of my account. 

      Thanks, Mary

        Sorry to jump in here, MBCrosstrek19.

         

        At the moment, it's not possible to delete a signed document from the Signatures page on dropbox.com.

         

        If this file is saved to your Dropbox account, you can delete it from your All files page as normal.

         

        I hope this helps!
