Adobe produces an entire white paper on the differences yet Acrobat DC, which only seems to support Electronic Signatures, refers to it as a Digital Signature

I have setup digital Signatures many times. But I have one computer that when you go to sign the document, draw the box, it takes me to the "Digital ID and Trusted Certificate Settings" window.  It should be opening to the "Sign Document" window. Any ideas what could be causing this? is it just a setting?

I'm looking to create a pdf that can only be downloaded once, can't be shared and can't be moved from the computer it was downloaded onto.

 

Any and all help would be awesome.

The end goal is to load these pdf's on to a website to sell, but for only the people who pay to be able to use them and make so they can't share them.

 

An example is NFPA 211 - you can buy and download the book, but it can't be moved from the computer nor can it be converted. if you need it on another computer you have to buy another copy.

 

Again any help would be awesome.

 

thank you

Digital Signature with JavaScript, Appearance won't change

$

I am trying to set up a script to certify multiple documents with my hand drawn signature. Everything in the code appears to function correctly except that it won't apply my appearance attribute, instead just applying the default Adobe signature appearance.

 

Here is the code I am using (personal info omitted for obvious reasons)

 

/* Add Signature*/

 

 

// Validate signatures when the document is opened:

  security.validateSignaturesOnOpen = true;

 

  // List all the available signature handlers

  for (var i=0; i<security.handlers.length; i++)

  console.println(security.handlers[i]);

 

  // Select the Adobe.PPKLite engine with the Acrobat user interface:

  var ppklite = security.getHandler(security.PPKLiteHandler, true);

 

 

var oParams = {

  cPassword: "password",

  cDIPath: "/C/Users/user/Desktop/file.pfx" // Digital signature profile

  };

  ppklite.login(oParams);

 

 

var myInfo = {

  password: "password",

  location: "",

  reason: "",

  contactInfo: "email",

  appearance: "Signature", // This is the part that does not get applied

  mdp: "allowNone"

  };

 

 

// Obtain the signature field object:

  var f = this.getField("NameOfSigField");

 

  // Sign the field:

  f.signatureSign({

  oSig: ppklite,

  oInfo: myInfo,

  cDIPath: "/C/temp/mySignedFile.pdf",

  //cLegalAttest: ""

  }); //End of signature

 

console.println(myInfo.appearance); // This returns "Signature" in the console, so it clearly sees the attribute but does not change it

drawing signature unresponsive and laggy on Windows device with stylus

Hi,

 

I'm using a Surface Book with a stylus and Acrobat DC and I want to draw my signature to use with documents. Unfortunately it is impossible to capture my signature using Acrobat DC because the input drawing field is completely unresponsive and laggy resulting in a weird jagged signature - unusable.

 

It's been like this for at least a year without any improvement in any of the new releases!

 

Anybody else also have this problem?

 

I recommend the Drawboard PDF app for using stylus to sign your documents on a PC with a touch screen until Adobe finally fixes this. It works great and smooth!

Hi,

 

Does anyone know if its possible to edit or delete the signature from a document.  I have a lease and I just want to update the information without having to start all over.  But I can not remove the original signature, nor can I edit the signing date.

 

Any advice would be great

Upgrading from eSign to Acrobat DC...worth it?

$

We currently use eSign for all our contracts and tax forms -- which has worked great. I'd like to upgrade to Acrobat Pro DC so I can use more of the pdf features as well.

 

Will this be worth it? Does the eSign part of Acrobat Pro work as well as eSign?

 

Thanks.

I was hoping someone could help with with protecting my PDF

$

Thank you in advance for your help! I am trying to figure out the best way to protect my documents. The end goal is to make it extremely difficult for anyone other than the recipient of the PDF to get their hands on the information.

 

Is there a way to Bulk Watermark documents (i.e. create PDF in acrobat, attach to email in Outlook, BCC a distribution with multiple recipients and have it display that users email address as the watermark when they open it?).

 

I have also seen functionality where if you click anywhere in the document it is attached to a mailto:xxx@xxx.com and opens up an email. This would prevent any copy and pasting. How is this done? 

 

My last question is in regards to disabling printing or forwarding of the document. Is this possible?

 

Again thank you for any help in regards to my question!

 

Best,

Nick

How can I re-set my digital certificate signature password?

I seem to have forgotten my digital certificate signature password. 

 

How can I re-set the password so that I can again insert a digital certificate signature?


How can I allow a string of multiple signers and keep existing data from being changed and how can I keep a signed PDF from being saved as and changed with the Sigantures saved as form?

I am having difficulty figuring out how to allow only additional signatures to a form once it is signed by the first person in a string of people who will sign it. Is there a "signing existing signature fields" in the "changes allowed" permissions? It does not seem to be an option. We are signing forms and can easily save them as and change data in the form while still showing the existing signatures.

 

Thank you,

Can I modify a pdf file containing a signature field prior to download?

$

I have a pdf file I use as a template and in my .net application I fill in a few fields using pdfstamper, iTextsharp, etc.  I'm new to this.

That all works.

 

I also have a signature field in my document.

 

After I modify the fields, with the person's name, etc., I download it to the client machine, open it in Adobe Reader X, and ask the user to sign the document.

 

I get an error saying "This document enabled extended features in Adobe Reader. The doc hsa been changed since it was created and the extended features are no longer available......"

 

Is there a way for me to do what I'm trying to do?  I hope this is somewhat clear.  It appears that modifying the fields with itextsharp is what's causing the error to occur.
