Imposing the theoretical constraints from vacuum stability, unitarity and perturbativity as well as the experimental constraints from the electroweak precision data, flavor observables and the non-observation of additional Higgs at collider, we study the implications of available Higgs signals on a two-Higgs-doublet model with the alignment of the down-type quarks and charged lepton Yukawa coupling matrices. Compared to the four traditional types of two-Higgs-doublet models, the model has two additional mixing angles theta(d) and theta(l) in the down-type quark and charged lepton Yukawa interactions. We find that the mixing angle theta(d) can loose the constraints on sin(beta - alpha), tan beta and m(H)+/- sizably. The model can provide the marginally better fit to available Higgs signals data than SM, which requires the Higgs couplings with gauge bosons, u (u) over bar and d (d) over bar d to be properly suppressed, and favors (1 < theta(d) < 2, 0.5 < theta(l) < 2.2) for m(h) = 125.5GeV and (0.5 < theta(d) < 2, 0.5 < theta(l) < 2.2) for m(H) = 125.5GeV. However, these Higgs couplings are allowed to have sizable deviations from SM for (m(h) = 125.5GeV, 125.5 = m(H) = 128GeV) and (125GeV = m(h) = 125.5GeV, m(H) = 125.5GeV).
