Best way to insert a signature in a PDF form?

My application's purpose is to assist the user in filling interactive fields. The forms in question require the filling person to sign and fax them. I will obviously need to scan the actual John Hancocks of the users and make a bitmap or similar (PNG?).
What's next? Perhaps I should look into the "stamp" feature?
Oftentimes, the space for the signature is too narrow in the vertical dimension. I would like the "ink" to be visible and the rest to be transparent.

Well, I just discovered the "Sign Here" feature, so I guess  that's the one to use. Now I need to learn how to make signatures with transparent background.

    p.d. A tutorial perhaps ?

    Yep you link in now fixed. what most likely happed is when you click on Link tool in the forum, when window open the http:// is already in the window. Most likely you clicked at the beginning of the http and pasted your link.
    I always when this window open triple click on the http:// so everything is selected, then hit Delete (I use Mac - PC it would be backspace) so window is completely empty then I paste the link.
    But I occasionally I let it happen myself.

  • In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large

    In Acrobat Professional 8, what is the best way to insert/combine multiple pdf's together in a large volume?
    We have 300 pdf reports and need to insert a 2 page cover page infront of each report. Not sure if Batch processing is best???
    Thanks for any tips.

    Probably each cover page is different too. I would probably just bite the bullet and do each individually. I would create the 2 cover pages in WORD or other word processor and print to cover.pdf. Then open a PDF and Pages>Insert Pages or the cover.pdf to the front of the open PDF and save as to the current PDF. Then repeat 299 times. Each time you would make the appropriate change to the DOC file and print a new cover.pdf file (you might want to turn off open in Acrobat for this processing in the printer properties to save time). Probably a good idea to keep a list of the files to check off what has been done (you can generate a list in DOS by Start>cmd, change the directory to your location [cd path], and do "dir >>list.txt". That will give you a list to use.). There may be an easier way, but by the time you get it figured out you might be done this way.

  • Best way to insert 300dpi photo's into Ilustrator file for print

    I am creating a 5.5 X 8 postcard style card for print.  I need to place 15 photographs that are aprox. 1.5 X 2.5 each.  What is the best way to insert these files so that my file doesn't become too large?  I will be making a PDF of the final artwork to send to the printer.  Your guidance is much appreciated!!

    Link don't embed the images. Use a layered format such as .psd, .tif, or .pdf. Psd is not lossy, .tif can be lossy if you modify the default settings, .pdf you choose how much compression you want, and a small amount of compression can make a much smaller file size.
    I would recomend using .psd, in cmyk color space. When you make your pdf for printing is when you will decide how much compression and which pdf preset you will use(press ready or PDF X should be a good choice). That will be your important choice.

    dear gurus,
    i am wondering that what is the best way to insert massive data into an existing excel file, more performance perspective.
    the file is read from BDS , and we want to insert data into it .
    the way i can think of is
    1. OLE AUTOMATION
       i think performance will be a big problem
    2. Office integration
        i am not sure it's facing the same performance issue ?
    3 . XXL_SIMPLE_API/FULL_API
        I am not sure whether they can insert data into an existing excel file?

    If the source data is already in the database, it is centralised.
    In that case you ideally do not want the overhead of shipping that data to a client, the client processing it, and the client shipping the results back to the database to be stored (inserted).
    It is must faster and more scalable for the client to instruct the database (via a stored proc or package) what to do, and that code (running on the database) to process the data.
    For a stored proc, the same principle applies. It is faster for it to instruct the SQL engine what to do (via an INSERT..SELECT statement), then pulling the data from the SQL engine using a cursor fetch loop, and then pushing that data again to the SQL engine using an insert statement.
    An INSERT..SELECT can also be done as a direct path insert. This introduces some limitations, but is faster than a normal insert.
    If the data processing is too complex for an INSERT..SELECT, then pulling the data into PL/SQL, processing it there, and pushing it back into the database is the next best option. This should be done using bulk processing though in order to optimise the data transfer process between the PL/SQL and SQL engines.
    Other performance considerations are the constraints on the insert table, the triggers, the indexes and so on. Make sure that data integrity is guaranteed (e.g. via PKs and FKs), and optimal (e.g. FKs should be indexes on the referenced table). Using triggers - well, that may not be the best approach (like for exampling using a trigger to assign a sequence value when it can be faster done in the insert SQL itself). Personally, I avoid using triggers - I rather have that code residing in a PL/SQL API for manipulating data in that table.
    The type of table also plays a role. Make sure that the decision about the table structure, hashed, indexed, partitioned, etc, is the optimal one for the data structure that is to reside in that table.

    What is the best way to use wi-fi to transfer pdf files from an ipad to a mac mini, not using an internet, just wi-fi?

    If the Mac use Lion (10.7) you can use Airdrop for that.
    With Mac's not using Lion you may set up a computer to computer (ad hoc) connection.

  • Multiple digital signatures in a pdf form?

    I'm creating an adobe pdf form that requires multiple approvers (one after the other) to digitally sign the form. However, once the second person digitally signs the form, the first person's signature will become invalid because the addition of the second signature is not signed by the first person.
    Is it possible to digitally sign the pdf form excluding the signatures?  and how to allow multiple signature in a pdf form while ensuring the form integrity?

    Hi,
    I doubt that the addition of a second signature actually invalidates (the red X icon) the first signature, but rather it shows the signature as Valid with Changes (the pen & yellow triangle icon). Technically, that is the correct signature status, but because it caused so much confusion, beginning with version 9, we've changed the user interface and stopped indicating changes to the PDF if the only change is a subsequent signature.
    If on the other hand you are getting the red X for the first signature please let me know as I'd be curious to see the file.

  • Best way to insert pages from a document to another

    Hi everybody,
    I need to append/insert pages from a InDesign CS4 document to another one with all the content that may be present in page.
    What is the best way to implement that? I didn't find anything similar to kAddDocToBookCmdBoss.
    The optimum would be to have something like kAddPageToDocCmdBoss for better granularity.
    Thanks a lot in advance to anybody who will express his opinion.
    Luca Severini

    The Pages panel flyout menu has a "Move Pages..." action / dialog.
    It fires off several commands:
    kCreatePageFromPageCmdBoss
    cmd target is the target document
    UIDList is the source kSpreadBoss.
    IID_ILAYOUTCMDDATA document is the target doc again.
    followed by kMoveSpreadCmdBoss and kShufflePagesCmdBoss.

  • The best way to insert values in a Nested Table

    Hi!
    I want to insert values from a SQL-query in a Nested Table.What's the best way to do it?
    In addition,the only way that I've found is doing a query and when I've got the query result I insert it into the Nested Table.For instance:
    FOR cur_row IN (SELECT id,nstreet from example Where id=3) LOOP
    --here I'm inserting the values of the query in the nested table.
    -- VarNestedTable is a Nested Table of Row_Type.
    --Row_Type is an object with two fields:Id,Nstreet
    VarNestedTable.extend;
    VarNestedTable(Coincidents.Last):= Row_type(cur_row.id,cur_row.nstreet);
    END LOOP;

    How to Use Tables: Creating a Table Model.
    very bad example:
    class DataObject {
    String name, age, numberOfMonkeys;
    class DOTableModel extends AbstractTableModel {
      final String[] COLUMN_HEADER = { "Name", "Age", Monkeys" };
      List dataObjects;
      public String getColumnName(int column)  {
         return COLUMN_HEADER[ column ];
      public int getRowCount() {
        return dataObjects.size();
      public int getColumnCount() {
         return COLUMN_HEADER.size();
      public Object getValueAt(int row, int column) {
         DataObject do = dataObject.get( row );
         switch( column ) {
           case 0: return do.name;
           case 1: return do.age;
           case 2: return do.numberOfMonkeys;
    }
