Add a digital signature to a form?

How can I get a signature on a form?

Actually let me step back - I jumped to a solution to quickly... Can you tell me what you use case / workflow is? What do you want to accomplish? Knowing that will help me point you in the right direction. Also it would be great if you could send me an example of your form (just send me a private message using the forum)

How do I add a digital signature to my online form?

With regular Adobe (Standard or Professional) software, you can add a digital signature line. I want to know how I can do it on FormCentral.
When I PDF the form I created on FormCentral and try to add the digital signature in Adobe, I get a message that I cannot due to security settings of the document.

Formscentral does not support forms with digital signature workflows. I suggest you see if our Echosign product meets your needs.

I need to verify that Acrobat Standard XI has the ability to add a digital signature form field to an existing PDF file.

Can anyone answer this question for me?
As in, a PDF that has already been created in a different version and has established form fields. Can I open it in Standard and add a digital signature to a field or do I have to use Pro, or does the form need to be recreated? The comparison chart is kind of unclear about this.

Yes. It was possible in Acrobat X Standard and I do not think it was removed in Acrobat XI Standard. It does not matter with which version your PDF was originally created. You can always add fields.

How i add digital signature in interactive form

Hi gurus,
I want to upload an Digital Signature in Adobe forms. Could any body tell me the procedures please help me out.
Thank you,
pawan

Hi Pawan,
Inorder to make use of Digital Signatures in forms, you have to first configure the ADS based on SSL and not Basic Authentication. Refer to the ADS Configuration guide for the same.
After the configuration using SSL as the security mode, you need to place a signature field when designing the Adobe form.
In addition you need to create a signature in Adobe Reader(if used to display the form) which you can use to sign the document at runtime.
Hope this helps.

Digital Signature problem : Adobe forms

Hi Experts,
I am facing one issue in Adobe forms while implementing Digital Signature in one of the Custom Adobe form. I am following some steps as mentioned in the below link
<link to blocked site removed by moderator>
The problem is when I execute my Adobe form I am not getting SIGN button in my generated form as mentioned in the link.
I am using Adobe Live cycle designer 8.2 and Adobe reader 9.
Please help me out on this since I am new to Adobe forms as well.
Thanks
VJ
Moderator message: this is the wrong forum, please have a look in the forum for "SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe".

Apart from the above question can anybody guide me whether do we need Adobe Acrobat instead of Adobe reader to implement Digital Signature in Adobe form.
Looking forward towards some useful suggestions!!

ADOBE Form - How to include digital signatures in adobe forms?

Hi all,
Can any one tell me the procedure for including a digital signature in adobe form?
Thanks,
Vineel.

Hi,
If you have a third party software which captures the signatures (Ex: ePad), then you can have that integrated to SAP where all the signatures get stored as in SE78. From here you can insert directly in Adobe Form using Graphic Content method in an image field. Hope this is helpful for you.

Variable numbers of digital signatures in a form?

I'm trying to build a template form that can be used to propose new projects. I have a dynamic table where the author can add rows to add offices that will be involved in the project. I also have a table at the end that represents a "workflow" that the final proposal will go through so that all the offices involved can approve the document. Right now, when a row is added to the offices table, a corresponding row is added to the workflow table. But I can't place digital signatures in the repeating portion of the workflow table. I understand this is not supported, but does anyone know of another way to achieve the same effect? Basically I need a form that can support a variable number of digital signatures.

I'm not sure I fully understand your question. Are you looking to add signatures in an automated fasion in an ad hoc fasion, or did you want to design the forms with signature fields already on the PDF form?
Assuming you are using LiveCycle Designer to create the forms, you can ad signature field(s) to the form when you create the forms. When a user clicks on the signature field, they will be prompted to select a digital certificate to sign the form with. Note that if the end users only have Reader, the form will need to be Reader Extended (to enable the ability to sign a PDF with reader)
There are other third party methods to sign PDF documents such as CIC's SignIt.
here are some links that may be of use:

Adding a digital signature to a form

Hi all,
I'm new adobe designer and have been tasked with creating an on-line registration form. So far I have been able to add all the fields and such for users to enter their information.
I have read through the forums and found out how to add little bits of javascript and stuff to the forms too.
At the moment I have a four page form with stacks of questions.
There is a question I have on there that is a check box with the usual "I accept the terms, blah, blah" on it and I need that field to act as a digital signature, or if not that, apply a signature to the form when the submit button is hit.
At the moment I have regular button as the submit button as I needed to be able to change the body and subject of the email at run-time and could only get it to work through javascript at run-time.
If anyone knows how to get this to work, I'd appreciate the help as I have no idea what I'm doing!
Cheers,
Dave

Hi,
It depends on where you placed the script, probably best place is the exit event.
if (this.rawValue != null || this.rawValue != "")
this.access = "readOnly";
else
this.access = "open";
This will only lock the field that the script is inside.
You should check out Paul's example LockAllFields, which contains a function in a script object. While Paul calls this from a click event in a button, you could call it fromthe exit event of the particular text field.

Can Acrobat auto populate a date field upon digital signature of a form?

We use several fillable forms with digital ID signature fields. A business rule requires a date field next to the signature field. Is it possible to define the date field to auto populate once the user signs the form? I can't check this in Acrobat since I only have the reader.

Hi,
The short answer is yes, but of course you'll need to get Acrobat to edit the PDF file.
Generically, here is what you are looking to do:
Open the Digital Signature Properties dialog
Select the Signed tab
Select the This script executes when the field is signed radio button
Click the Edit button
Add the code snippet below to the JavaScript editor
Click the OK button on the JavaScript editor
Click the Close button on the Digital Signature Properties dialog
// JavaScript code to add the date at signing time
    var currentTime = new Date()
    var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1
    var day = currentTime.getDate()
    var year = currentTime.getFullYear()
    var signingTime = day +"/"+month+"/"+year //Modify into your preferred format
    var f = this.getField("Text1"); //Modify the field name as necessary
    f.value = signingTime;
Good luck,
Steve

Jre hangs/freeze at digital signature dialog (oracle.forms.engine.Main)

hi,
we are using webforms (application server 11).
when a client starts up a form in the browser the dialog for accepting the digital signature (oracle.forms.engine.Main) appears. in this dialog wether a button can be klicked nor the checkbox (always trust...) can be checked. still this dialog can be moved.
what's the reason for that?
we tried different jre versions (1.6 u12 - u20) and also patch 9553040 (jrefb-6u20-rev-b05-windows-i586.exe) doesn't work - the same problem appears.
regards,
matthias

It does!
I [read this paper|http://forms.pjc.bean.over-blog.com/ext/http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/SigningJint13.pdf] before, years ago the first time. It's from *2002* and refers to JInitiator. And I read this paper again. But I stopped around page 13, reading
+"PROBLEMS WITH MULTIPLE SIGNING IDENTITIES+
+There is currently a restriction within Oracle9i Forms. If a Forms application is+
+started within JInitiator or the Sun Java Plug-in, which uses code signed with+
+multiple certificates ... This restriction will be lifted in a later release of Forms ...."+
Not one of my best ideas. Notice, Sun Plug-in is mentioned and +8 years+ might not be enough, obviously.
Reason behind the "re-appearance" of the problem with forms 11g is that the forms jars (including webutil) are now signed with an VeriSign certificate what was not the case with 10g. Downloading jacob.jar by your own, you get an unsigned jar file. Signing this, as you were used in 10g leads to the second signing identity and the freezing problem.
But let's see how we could solve the problem, for the moment, perhaps for the next 8 years. We
. took solution path 2 out of the aove cited paper (Register Your Custom Signing Certificate Separately).
. rename jacob.jar to jy_jacob.jar (we do not want to interfere with other forms application of other companies also using webutil)
. add the registration applet code as described in the paper to jy_jacob.jar
. sign jy_jacob.jar.
. [to be on the save side we repeated these steps for all our jar files, necessary for the application]
. rename webutiljpi.htm to webutiljpijy.htm
. modify webutiljpijy.htm by adding applet registration section before webutil registration. This reads like

<OBJECT classid="%jpi_classid%"
codebase="%jpi_codebase%"
WIDTH="0"
HEIGHT="0"
HSPACE="0"
VSPACE="0">
<PARAM NAME="TYPE" VALUE="%jpi_mimetype%">
<PARAM NAME="CODEBASE" VALUE="%codebase%">
<PARAM NAME="CODE" VALUE="com.joynit.forms.applet.RegisterCertificateApplet">
<PARAM NAME="ARCHIVE" VALUE="%archive%,%webUtilArchive%" >
<COMMENT>
<EMBED SRC="" PLUGINSPAGE="%jpi_download_page%"
TYPE="%jpi_mimetype%"
java_codebase="%codebase%"
java_code="com.joynit.forms.applet.RegisterCertificateApplet"
java_archive="%archive%,%webUtilArchive%"
WIDTH="1"
HEIGHT="1"
HSPACE="0"
VSPACE="0"
>
<NOEMBED>
</COMMENT>
</NOEMBED></EMBED>
</OBJECT>

. modify formsweb.cfg so that webutiljpijy.htm and jy_jacob.jar are used (original settings as comments below)
baseHTMLjpi=webutiljpijy.htm
#baseHTMLjpi=webutiljpi.htm
archive=frmall.jar,iText-5.0.3.jar,vzg_grafik.jar,vzg_images.jar,vzg_netz.jar,jy_pdfutil.jar
#archive=frmall.jar
WebUtilArchive=frmwebutil.jar,jy_jacob.jar
#WebUtilArchive=frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar
And then, after flushing the jar cache, success! No freezing. It was possible to confirm the certifcates and to start the application.
Thnx to Mia Urman and the oracle forms communitiy on [http://oracleformsinfo.wordpress.com/] , who gave me the tip... There is another, easier solution.
Never set one of the original oracle jar-Files on pole position (1st position) in one auf the archive parameters. This leads to hanging.
Put one of your self-signed jar-Files in front and let the oracle jars follow. The forms application will start properly.
It work with 3 different signing authorities, also. What makes hope for 4, and so on.

How to Print Digital Signature in Smart forms.

Hi Experts,
Any one please help me how to use digital signatures in SMARTFORMS.?
Which are the tables used to store digital signatures and please any one have any demo program which prints the the digital signature using smartforms kindly let me know.
Thanks,
Sunil kairam.

Hi Sunil,
After doing some research in sdn and other sources i found the following result...
Digital Signatures are nothing but graphics that we can store in SAP and use in our Smart Forms.
For Example you can create a .bmp file of your signatures, upload it via SE78, and then use it in your Smart Forms in your Footer Area as "Authorized Signatory".
The Logic in the Print Program can be something as follows -
1. Maintain a Z Table having fields like PLANT, FORMID (Name of the SmartForm), USERID.
2. Before calling the Form, the validation is made for the Logged in User with the Z Table created.
3. If the User Entry exists in the Z-Table, the Form is called and the Signature Image is displayed in the Footer Block i.e. the Authorized Signature.
4. If user entry does not exist in the Z-Table then the message is displayed "You are not the Authorized for Printing the Form" and exits the Transaction.
