Adding multiple signatures in one interactive form

Hi, I'm creating an insertion form for a client. THey have one area under credit card info that has a signature line, and another spot at the bottom of the form that has another field for a signature.
When I bring the PDF into acrobat Pro and do the form wizard, it only makes one of these boxes have the red tag/signature look to insert a digital signature. My clients wants both signature boxes to have this feature.
I can not figure out how to do this. please help.

After you've added the form fields, including the signature fields and have the form working like it should, it needs to be Reader-enabled in Acrobat. How this is done depends on which version of Acrobat you're using. This thread has more information: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4896660
This enabling really should be done by your client with their licensed version of Acrobat Pro, not yours. It's an Acrobat licensing issue, actually several issues.
In any case, the resulting file is a PDF, the same as what you're working with now.
Another thing to consider is that if the form is intended to be used by the general public, most won't have any experience with using digital signatures. An alternative is to use Adobe's new EchoSign service, which does not use digital signature fields but instead uses an electronic signature (e-sig) process which does not rely on the form being Reader-enabled, so there are no Acrobat licensing issues. But there is a fee associated with the EchoSign service. Digital/Electronic signatures are not free.
Then there are legal issues that need to be considered. EchoSign may have an advantage here, at least over the use of self-signed certificates as are most commonly used with digital signature fields. Even if I knew more details about the form and intended workflow, I can't provide you any specific advice about this.

  • LiveCycle Designer 8.0 - Need multiple signatures on one form

    Hi
    I am very new to LiveCycle Designer, and do not have ES, and probably cannot get it. I have created a form that needs to accept multiple signatures from 6 or more people.  The form was initiated from a Word-generated PDF.
    I created a table that has four columns, one for the person's title, another for the signature, the remaining columns are irrelevant for this discussion. The person associated with the "title" signs in the Signature column in that same row. In the PDF version of the form, Acrobat 9 allows two signatures, but no more. How can I get Acrobat to accept signatures for all 6+ individuals? The two sigs I got were in subsequent rows.  If I can get Acrobat to accept additional sigs, do the sigs need to take place in strict order (1st row, 2nd row, 3rd row...), or can the signers sign in any table row?
    Please let me knowif you have additional questions for me that can help you understand how to solve this issue.
    Thanks,

    Thank you Srini,
    This is what I did, for anyone else with the same issue:
    Tocreate signature fields in LiveCycle Designer:
    Highlight the field. In the Object pallet Type field, select: Document Signature Field.
    On the Document Signature tab, make sure that Lock Fields After Signing is not checked.
    These fields are a quick way for users to add a digital signature in Adobe Reader.
    This seems to work well. I appreciate the help.
    Just to bring it full circle, how do you delete a document signature field? Haven't found it in the Help.
    Thanks much!

  • Adding dynamic size table to Interactive Form

    Hello everyone,
    I have a node with multiple elements that i would like to show in an interactive pdf form.
    I'm using the Adobe LiveCycle Designer to do it, but i'm only managing to bind "solo" variables, not tables.
    How can i associate dynamically a table with several lines to a pdf interactive form ? I tried a list box but i still only get the first element shown in the box. Am i doing anything wrong ?
                 Thank you in advance.
                           Nuno Santos

    Hi,
    Basically the general way to add a table to INteractive form is by adding a subform elemet to a subform element and(i mean subform in a subform), now map the fields u want to be displayed as a table.
    For the fisrt subform set the LayoutType-Flow Content,Flow DirectionTable.
    Then select the allow page breaks within the content option.
    And the binding should be Normal.
    for the second subform:
    LayoutType-Flow Content,Flow DirectionTable row.
    Now also select the option allow page breaks.
    Then for Binding tab: select the Repeat Subform for each data Item, then min count=1.
    And now if ur table columns contain names like abc, def and xyz.
    Then in the script editor code something like this
    abc[*]; under show: initilaze, language: Formcalc and Run at: client
    Hope this should work out for you.
    let me know if u have any more queries.
    Thanks,

  • Use two different Bapis into one interactive form

    Hello. I'm creating a form in which I need the result from two different bapis, but the interactive form element in the layout of the view allows me only one data source node.
    The form i want to create is one in which appears some data from one employee (so I use BAPI_EMPLOYEE_GETDATA). The problem is that I also want to show the qualifications shown as result of the BAPI_QUALIFIC_GETLIST bapi. Those qualifications should correspond to the employee.
    I have one solution in my mind. That one is: I could create a node containing the structure with all the elements I need from the two bapis. Then I could copy there the results from the context nodes that are mapped to the bapis.
    I believe this is a common situation. Not only to my specific example but to many other forms.So, I think there should be a way to do it without programming it myself. Or perhaps a better solution than mine. My worry comes to my mind because all the facilities Web Dynpro and LifeCycle offer to create interactive forms and common web applications.
    Thanks to anyone with some answers.}
    Of course, I'll reward for them!

    Hello Alejandro Monteverde,
    There is one and only one data sink for an interactive form and that is the data source node for you. There is no possibility that we can define a second or third datasource node for our application. Having the above statement in mind, the only way we can fulfill our requirement is to have a common parent node as the datasource node which in turn may have any number of nodes (in your case you would probabaly think of segregating the results from two BAPIs to map to two different nodes). A third node can be added tomorrow if you need so.
    The solution that you have mentioned will also work equally good. In your approach you will have all the related information will be contained within one node. Fair enough.
    Its a matter of how do you want to best represent your data structure.
    Thanking you,
    Krishanu

  • Some questions concerning the digital signature on an interactive form

    I've just finished an interactive Advertising Contract with 128-bit encryption that will enable recipients to submit CC info safely to our publishing firm. Even though form fields at the top allow typing the name of an authorized person, the signature line at the bottom is presenting problems because in order for anyone to sign, they need a digital signature.
    (1) Is this necessary? If so, is there any way of automating it for clients so they don't have to go through the process of creating one?
    (2) How do I create a digital signature for my partner and have the SUBMIT button on the form channel the returns to his email address instead of mine (which it is doing because of another interactive form I created in which I was the point person for returns)? I couldn't find anything in the "properties" of the OK button that allowed me to enter an email address.
    Thank you so much for your help here. This is time-sensitive, as we need to get the package out ASAP.

    1. If you require a digital signature, then setting up a digital ID is necessary in order to sign a digital signature field. So the question is really more fundamental: Do you require that people sign the form with a digital signature? If you say yes, what are the reasons?
    2. If you are using the distribution process in Acrobat so thatt you can collect the form data in a responses file, you should distribute the form using the other person's machine that has Acrobat installed on it.
    If you don't want to do this and only want to collect the returned documents without placing the data in a responses file, you can set up your own submit button using any email address you want and not use the distribution process. You will have to Reader-enable the document and then email or otherwise get it to the users. How you set up the submit button depends on how you want it to work exactly, and which version of Acrobat you're using. More information can be found here: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/form-submit-e-mail-demystified
    If you still want to go through the distribution process and want to change the email address that it uses, you can change it in: Edit > References > Identity > Email Address
    You'll then have to redistribute the form using a copy of the form as it existed prior to your first distribution. The responses file will be on your machine.

  • How to use Multiple Logos in One Smart Form?

    All,
    I have a client where they will have 2 logos for, e.g. "Invoicing" and want the form to decide which logo to print (based on plant code).
    We are using Smartforms.
    They want to use one form and based on the plant code - the form should determine which logo to print in the upper left corner of the invoice - how do you do this?
    This is not like having text to print on the form in the same place - my understanding is the logo is NOT some variable you can "clear" in the program and then use the logo you wish to show up on the printout.
    Does this have something to do with using multiple layouts within the same form?  You define a layout for each logo and then within the Smartform logic determine which layout to print?  And if that is true - does someone have sample code of how they determined which layout to use?
    Thanks - and as always - points rewarded where helpfull!

    Hi Scott,
    Create two Graphics in Smartform window & place them wherver you want in the smart form.
    Now in Graphics node, you can find  'Conditions' tab, under this you can give the conditions.
    Hope this clue wil help you

    click on the little icon with the triangle and some lines to the left of the "From" field in a message composition window. in the resulting pulldown menu choose "customize". check the box next to "Signature" and click "OK".
    now you'll get a signature pulldown menu where you can choose which signature to use with this message.

  • Adding multiple users into one security group at one shot

    Hi,
    Is there any way we can add multiple users into one security group at one shot into PWA.
    For example: I want 100 create 100 users in EPM and Providing them with custom define Team defined permissions and can I add Time sheet Manager as well while creating bulk user through resource template in Project server 2010.
    Thanks,
    Prashant

    Hi Prashant,
    In order to add users in a security group, you can open the group, select all the appropriate resources (pressing CTRL key) and add them to the group. There is no other easy way. Otherwise a powershell script could do the job.
    For the timesheet manager, if all the 100 resources have the same timesheet manager, you can go to the resource center, select the resources (sorting by resource ID will give you together the latest resources added), bulk edit the resources and select the
    timesheet manager for the selected resources.
    Hope this helps,

  • Adding multiple product details in Mail Forms

    Hi Experts,
    We have a requirement to print multiple product details in mail forms. I see that in a seperate business role - 'SPL', the option to print product table is given. But there are fixed attributes that can be printed. We need to print custom attributes defined at the product level also in the mail forms. Anyone having any idea on this
    Radhika

    I don’t fully understand what the situation really is here. Mail would complain the way you describe only if both mail accounts have the same User Name, but in that case both mail accounts are actually the same and you shouldn’t be trying to set up them both in Mail as independent accounts.
    What identifies a mail account are the User Name and the Incoming Mail Server, not the Email Address. Multiple email addresses associated with the same mail account are called aliases. Type alias in Mail Help’s search box for more information on how this works in Mail if that’s what you want to do.

  • Adding multiple signatures

    I can't add additional signatures to my document. I have read all of the threads and tried the solutions but none work. I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 and have a document that requires a signature from the author and two approving signatures. I save the word document as a PDF then click certify with visible signature. I place the signature and sign, selecting "form fill in and digital signatures" under permitted changes after certifying. I then save the document and send it to the first approving official. When he clicks on the sign menu all options none of the options work except "validate all signatures" and "getting started with digital signatures" he has pro version 8 as well. Any thoughts

    If the Version 9 does not work for you, you could enlist a third-party digital signature provider to drag and drop signature fields into your PDFs and even create templates.
    SIGNiX is a good option.

  • Multiple Signatures in one PDF with Field Collection

    I have found multiple post throughout adobe forums, and Acrobat Users forums but have yet to find an answer. Often links to the "answer" no longer exist so I'm requesting help here on another thread. I have a form I designed in Form designer, that is being used in Acrobat Pro 8. The first signature is tied/linked to pages 1-5, and lock that data once signed. Then a second signature is needed on page 6 to validate any additional documentation on that page. Signature field on page 6 is also tied to field collection of all fields on page 6. However once any changes are made to page 6, or once page 6 is signed then the signature on page 5 changes (has yellow triangle with exclamation mark.) While the Yellow Triange isn't saying the signature is invalid, it is saying that the document has been changed. However the part of the document associated with the signature on page 5 has not changed. Is there some way to avoid the error on the first signature. This is a serious problem, because I have another 20 pages and every other page or so need another signature. Please, any suggestions are appreciated.

    i guess you could do something similar by having one form as a kind of title page/menu and having links to each of the other then just group them into a portfolio
    if what you are trying to do is have an index type arangement
    otherwise it's subforms as you suggested - 

  • Adding Multiple Signatures before Saving

    Searching for answers regarding Adobe Live Cycle.  Taught myself how to use it the other day and I created the attached form.  These are the requests in regards to the digital signatures:
    ·        When applying digital signature it prompts for Save As.  Is it possible to sign multiple times and save the “signed” copy over the original?
    ·        Are there any options with the e-signature that would allow for the same person to “sign” in multiple locations without having to save the document?  For our application it is important that the document be saved with the current name.  Changing the filename or folder will not work for us.
    I have searched high and low to find the answer to this and I’m raising my white flag in hopes that you may be able to help or point me to the right place.
    I greatly appreciate any feedback you can provide.
    All the best,
    Angie

    Angie
    You must save the PDF after each signature.  Just like any "save" if you use the same filename you overwrite the original, but in the case of a digitally signed PDF this is desirable behaviour.  A signed PDF maintains a trail (for lack of a better term) of the various states of the document at each signature (see attached screen shot).  You can use the signature pane in Reader or Acrobat to view what the document looked like at the time each signature was applied ("Click to view this version").
    You can also quickly see the overall status of the signed document from the blue "document status" bar displayed at the top of the document.
    Hope this helps.
