Sign in Acrobat 9.4

Dear all, i need your support
I can not sign any documents, when i try a message error appears.
Appear this message:
"Creation of this signature could not be completed
Error encountered while BER decoding
Internal error: a function parameter had a incorrect value"
I apreciate any support
thanks very much

Sorry about that, frustration had set in.  I'm using Reader 9.4 and so far as I know, the form is set to relay data only, not the pdf.
The security that I can see from properties is like this:
Allowed:
printing
content copying
content copying for accessability
fillling of form fields
Not Allowed:
document assembly
page extraction
commenting
signing
creation of template pages
If it only popped up an error message, there'd be something to grab hold of.

  • Error 2148073513 When Attempting To Digitally Sign In Acrobat 11 Standard

    I'm attempting to use Acrobat 11 Standard to digitally sign a PDF document with a 2048 bit certificate from our internal certificate authority, and I'm receiving the following error:
    Error encountered while signing:
    The Windows Cryptographic Service Provider reported an error:
    The requested operation is not supported.
    Error Code: 2148073513
    The operating system is Windows 7 Enterprise x64.  When I remove Acrobat 11 Standard and install Acrobat 9 Standard on the same Windows 7 system, I am able to successfully sign the document using the same certificate that was giving the error with 11.  Also we have been using Acrobat 9 on Windows XP with these same certificates for a long time and never encountered issues with digitally signing.
    Any ideas of what might be causing this issue? 
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Josh,
    The error message comes from Windows (not Acrobat), but Acrobat 11 is probably asking Windows to do something that it can't. What it is I don't know because the error message is too vague. One thing we can do is to take Windows out of the picture and see if you can sign when Acrobat accesses the digital ID itself as opposed to asking Windows to do the work. This is a two step process, first, export the digital ID from Windows into a file, and then import the file into Acrobat (it's not really an import, but I'll leave it at that for now).
    Step 1 - Export the Digital ID
    Launch Acrobat
    Select the Edit > Preferences menu item
    Select Internet from the Categories list box
    Click the Internet Settings button
    Select the Content tab on the Internet Properties dialog
    Click the Certificates button
    Highlight your digital ID and then click the Export button
    Click the Next button on the Welcome panel of the Certificate Export Wizard
    Select the Yes, export the private key radio button, and then click the Next button. If this radio button is disabled you can stop here and let me know that the private key is not exportable
    Select the Include all certificates in the certification path if possible checkbox & the Export all extended properties checkbox and then click the Next button. Only select the top and bottom checkboxes, DO NOT delete the private key!
    Create passwords for the file and then click the Next button. You will need this password to sign with so make sure it is something you can remember.
    Pick a file name and location. Browse for a location you can remember as you will need to know where you put the file in order to use it to sign with. Click the Next button.
    Click the Finish button
    Click the OK button on the confirmation dialog
    Click the Close button on the Certificates dialog
    Click the OK button on the Internet Properties dialog
    Step 2 - Add the file to Acrobat
    Select Signatures from the Categories list box
    Click the More button in the Identities & Trusted Certificates group box
    Click the Add ID toolbar button
    Click the Next button
    Click the Browse button
    Navigate to and select the file you exported above and then click the Open button
    Enter the password you used above and then click the Next button
    Click the Finish button
    You will see two items in the list box with the same name. Highlight the one whose Storage Mechanism is "Digital ID File"
    Click the Usage Options toolbar button and then select Use for Signing
    Close the Digital ID and Trusted Certificate Settings
    Click the OK button on the Preferences dialog
    The next test is to see if you can sign a file. Please let me know if it works or not.
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • Acrobat 5.05 cannot sign fter Acrobat 7

    We have a mixed Acrobat environment at work. Most users have Acrobat 5.0.5 (running under Windows XP) to create and sign PDFs, and use recent versions of Reader to view documents that won't open or display properly in Acrobat 5.0.5.
    A few users have Acrobat 7 running under Windows Vista or 7. Acrobat 5.0.5 will not run under these newer versions of Windows, so it was necessary to buy new Acrobat 7 licenses for them.
    All of our documentation is digitally signed in Acrobat. Sometimes after someone has signed using Acrobat 7, Acrobat 5.0.5 users are unable to sign. This does not happen all the time, but it does seem to happen more often after some Actobat 7 signatures than others.
    Does anyone understand what's going on? Is there a fix or workaround?
    Thanks

    Surprised that AA7 works on VISTA or Windows 7. Anyway, they may be able to use the PDF Optimize (not sure with signatures) to save as an AA5 file.

  • Cannot sign in Acrobat XI after recent update

    After recent update, cannot sign in Acrobat XI even after changing enhanced security settings

    To get iMessage and Facetime working you have to goto "settings > General> reset > erase all content and settings"
    After iphone reboots go thru setup like a new phone but chose restore from iCloud backup. Choose "see all backups" and chose one before you installed ios7.
    Usually iPhone backs itself up when locked and plugged into charger so there should be a few to choose from.
    The phone doesn't have to be pluuged into iTunes for this but probably should be connected to charger.
    Don't wait on Apple. They seem to think there is no problem.

  • Digitally signing using Acrobat XI and Mac OS 10.9.2- won't let me type signature- the box appears but can't adjust font or any other aspect of text.

    I just purchased Acrobat XI pro for Mac. I have OS 10.9.2   When I got to digitally sign, it only allows me to sign using certificate- which does not render a legible name- and is an apple authorization certificate. Or if I go to "type text" the only type showing in the box is Helvetica 12. I can't adjust that. then I put my name in and that's it. It does not look like a signature. I was hoping to insert an image
    or at least have it look like a signature.
    What can fix this?
    Darcy

    When I click "place signature" I only have one option.
    It asks me "How would you like to create your signature?
    The only option available to me is "use a certificate- When I attempt to use another option there are some but they are not available to me."use an image" draw my signature, or type my signature
    are not available.
    For that reason I went to preferences to see what I could do to change the settings- and all I could do was manage the certificate signature- so that it looks better than it did.
    As an aside- after doing that- the document went on and the person couldn't sign because it had an "open password" If you also know about that- that would be great.
    This is the only reason I purchased the Adobe XI so I could draw my signature or type it and have it appear as a signature.

  • Setting the "reasons" for signing in Acrobat XI Pro?

    I would like to set the reasons for signing a document in my digital signature. However, I can't find any place that lets me enter that information.
    For example, I want to enter something like "To confirm my participation"
    I have found quite a few support docs but they all refer to Acrobat X Security Prefs which are different from Acrobat XI.

    In Acrobat 11: Edit (or Acrobat on Mac) > Preferences > Signatures > Creation & Appearance > More > Show Reasons
    or did you want to add a customized item to the list of reasons that you're presented with?

  • When I click Sign in Acrobat X Pro, nothing happens.

    I am using my CA certificate which I know is good, I am using a custom "physical signature" look for the appearance.....I click place signature, the box pops up, I then verify all things correct (Certificate, Appearance) but when I click Sign, nothing happens.  Advice?

    Hi,
    Acrobat/Reader will not allow you to sign a PDF file using a certificate that asserts CA=true in the Basic Constraints extension. You can only use an end-entity certificate.

  • Error signing in Acrobat 7 pro

    I keep getting the following error when signing document...
    Unknown error
    Support Information: CSigDict-1812
    Some help?
    Also, I cannot get it to remember my Digital ID after I close Acrobat... and YES, I click Always Use EVERY time.

    Sorry, I do not have access to Acrobat 7. This could be a bug in Acrobat 7. There were so many changes in the product over the last 10 years. Reader 11.0.7 opened signing for non-Reader-extended PDFs. Could you switch to Reader 11.0.7, which is free, for your signing?

  • Digitally signing with Acrobat 7.10 Pro

    Is there a way to digitally sign several/many pdf's?
    E.a. bulk wise.
    With the Batch tool, javascript or something else.

    Hi,
    Yes, you could use the Batch tool to digitally sign all of the files in an input folder. Because there is not build-in signature functionality in the Batch feature, you would have to create a JavaScript (which is included in the Batch feature) to find and sign the signature field. My recomendation would be to save the signed file to a separate output folder.

  • I need to digital sign a document using Acrobat Reader. Is it possibile?

    I am an IT Manager for a little city in northern italy.
    I have almost 50 clients with smart cards enabled for what concerns digital signage.
    I use flawlessy the software of the firm who provides the smart card. (infocamere.it).
    This uses sha256 crypt, no problems about it.
    The problem I have is:
    The final file is a "p7m" envelope.
    I would prefer to use a "pdf" envelope. One only file.
    I tried to follow this video
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/acrobat-x/how-to-digitally-sign-a-document-with-adobe-reader/
    Simply it doesn't work.
    I have also a couple of Acrobat Standard.
    I can "pdf-sign" with Acrobat Standard 9.
    I am not able to do the same with reader 9 or X.
    There is a way to do it?
    Thank You.

    You can sign a PDF using Adobe Reader 9 or X, but the document must be "Reader Extended" to enable this functionality, This can be done using ADEP\LiveCycle Reader Extensions (server product) or Acrobat Professional 9 (Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader) or Acrobat X Professional (File > Save As > Reader extended PDF)
    For some more info...  http://www.adobe.com/eeurope/products/server/readerextensions/  or http://help.adobe.com/en_US/enterpriseplatform/10.0/Overview/WS92d06802c76abadb2c8525912dd cb9aad9-7ffa.html

  • Can a signature field created by Acrobat V7 be signed in Reader V9? How?

    PDF's with signature fields created within Acrobat version 7 when opened in Reader version 9 do not have signing enabled.  Is it possible to enable Reader signing in Acrobat?

    In order for Reader to be able to sign a digital signature field, the document has to have the corresponding usage right applied. Acrobat 7 is not able to apply this usage right. The first version that could is Acrobat 8 Pro.

  • My upgraded Acrobat Pro DC keeps asking me to sign in, when I already am

    My upgraded Acrobat Pro DC, which is part of my Creative Suite, keeps giving me this message every time I try to do something with the software. I am already signed in

  • Acrobat 9.3.4 is very slow to open files

    Greetings:
    I have Acrobat 9.3.4 installed on a Dell Latitude D630 with a 2.4 GHz T7700 Core 2 Duo processor and 4GB of RAM. I re-installed Windows XP SP3 about a month ago due to some USB issues. The motherboard was replaced prior to that to try to resolve the USB issues, but the culprit turned out to be corrupted Windows USB drivers. There were other issues with IE which I was unable to resolve without an O/S re-install, so I went ahead and re-installed XP.
    The laptop has been running great for the last four weeks and I've had Acrobat 9 installed on the laptop since then, too. It was functioning fine until yesterday. While opening a PDF file on my local hard drive, I saw no disk or CPU activity or any sign that Acrobat was even starting. I opened up Windows Task Manager and saw that Acrobat had started but was "not responding". About 30 seconds after I attempted to  start Acrobat, the file finally opened and browsing performance in the file was fine.
    I have repaired my Acrobat installation (essentially a 10 minute re-install) and that did nothing to improve the startup speed. I have not knowingly changed any Acrobat settings in the last four weeks. I appreciate any suggestions you may have which may improve this situation. Thanks!

    First let me disclose that I am not an expert nor even much less. However I used to have this slow as a turtle opening of FF until I got rid of my antivirus software which at the time was Avast. I switched to Microsoft Security Essentials and have had no problems since. FF loads in 3 to 4 seconds!

  • Digital Signature crashes Acrobat 9 Pro

    An error occurs when trying to Sign any PDF document, even when opening a very simple, one word (Times New Roman text only) PDF document. After opening the PDF in Acrobat Pro (WinXP Pro SP3), selecting Sign, Sign Document, Acrobat allows proper placement of the signature box, and accepts the password for the selected Signature ID. When <Sign> is then selected, Acrobat offers to save the document, and when the save location (any location) is selected, Acrobat returns the error below.
    Adobe Acrobat 9.3 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
    Error Signature
    AppName: acrobat.exe AppVer: 9.3.2.163 ModName: acrobat.dll
    ModVer: 9.3.2.163 Offset: 00135fb9
    The same source PDF document can be modified, or password protected, and then saved without a problem. Only when a digital signature is applied does the error occur. Acrobat has successfully Signed and saved documents on this PC previously, but starting experiencing this error about week ago. I have uninstalled Acrobat, reinstalled ver. 9.0 and applied the two updates to 9.3.2, and have generated new Digital Signatures, all with the same resulting error when signing a document. The new, signed PDF document is actually created, and a Digital Signature is found in the document, but is invalid, reporting:
    Error during signature verification.
    Signature contains incorrect, unrecognized, corrupted or suspicious data.
    Support Information: SigDict /Contents illegal data
    I have tried the troubleshooting steps in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403613.html, but without any progress; the error continues to remain. Any advice on how to resolve this will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    Hi Mike,
    After the Save As operation was done, did you see the signature appearance displayed in the signed signature field before you closed the doc? And if did see the signature appearance, did you happen to notice if there was a green check mark displayed in the blue message bar at the top of the file?
    Thanks,
    Steve
