Cannot sign a pdf document

All sign options are greyed out and not links:
How can I sign this? I need to do so ASAP as it is an application form so any prompt help would be brilliant, thanks.

This form contains unsigned signature field that needs to be signed with certificates. Click on the red arrow (or choose "Work with Certificates") for that. You cannot sign with e-Signature PDFs that have signature fields. You need to have a signing credential in order to be able to sign this PDF.

    I cannot print adobe pdf documents. Password protected. How do I fix this problem?

    You'll need to remember it or recreate the PDF from the original file.
    If there were an easy way to get around that, passwords wouldn't be worth much.

  • Signing a PDF document

    When I try to sign a PDF document, I get this error: 
    "The windows Crypttographic Service Provider reported and error:  The security token does not have storage space available for an additional container.  Error code 2148073507".
    Anyone have an Idea?

    Per the OP, the issue is that the previous version of the users certificates have not been removed
    from windows.
    To do this (I only know the process through I.E.):
    1 - Open Internet Explorer
    2 - Alt-T to open the tools menu and select Internet Options
    3 - Choose the Content Tab and select Certificates
    You will most likely see your 3 previous certificates, your CURRENT certificates and possibly other users certificates.
    4 - REMOVE the LOWER "CA" numbered certificates by selecting them and clicking "Remove".
    5 - Close IE
    6 - Close Any Adobe Acrobat Documents
    7 - Re-open the document you want to sign and it should work.
    IF You only had your OLD certificates, you can add your new certificates by opening Active Client
    1a. Choose Tools
    2a. Choose Advanced
    3a. Select Make Certificates Available To Windows
    Hope this helps whoever comes across this in the future.

  • CfPDF: How do I electionically sign a pdf document

    Hi,
    The documentation for cfPDF does not specify how to use the  "AllowSecure" option of the "Protect" action for the "Permissions" attribute.
    How do you  direct cfPDF to the digital certificate you want to use to sign the pdf  document?
    Please no vague answers.  Please provide the line of code using cfPDF.
    Thank you.

    Please no vague answers.  Please provide the line of code using cfPDF.

  • I can't electronically sign a PDF document

    I have a PDF document (visa application) which requires an electronic signature however all the 'sign' options that are avaliable to me do not seem to work. When clicking on the 'Sign' option to the right side of the document all the options in the drop-down menu remain greyed out meaning I cannot use them. I have checked the security details of the document and 'signing' is allowed. I'm currently using Adobe reader XI. I've never used this before and have exhausted all means of trying to solve the problem myself so it would be greatly appreciated if someone could please help me out.

    Hi TheKrow,
    The PDF you are trying to sign might not be Rights extended, Reader is only the read only software and is not meant for editing modifying or signing the document. For making Adobe Reader to perform certain task we need to make PDF Rights Enabled. That can be done via Adobe Acrobat.
    I would recommend if you ask you to contact the creater of the PDF and ask him to send the PDF which is Reader Rights Enabled.

  • PLEASE HELP. Cannot open a PDF document via a link in an email. I am using Mac 10.7.5 and Firefox.

    If I receive a PDF document attached to an email by way of an icon, I can double click on the PDF icon and the document opens. HOWEVER, if I receive a link to a PDF document in an email, and I click on the link which leads me to a webpage with another link to a PDF document, when I click on the document, a new web page opens but NOTHING happens - no download box - just nothing.
    Please help. This is so frustrating.
    Yes, I can right click and 'Save As' - but I don't want to. I want it to open as it used to open - displaying the open PDF document in a new web page.
    Then I tried to click on a download button on a website to retrieve my statement - but again, a new web page would open but it would be BLANK. No sign of any download.
    When I used to open PDFs on a webpage, I used to get the Download box which asked if I want to OPEN or SAVE. This doesn't appear any more.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    I have already gone to HD / Internet Plug-ins and deleted the two Adobe PDF plug ins - but this hasn't fixed my problem.

    Click on the below link :
    https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
    Step 1: select Mac OS  X 10.6-`0.`0
    Step 2 : Safari and FIrefox
    Then click on " Download Now"  button.

  • IMac. Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.3.1. Since I installed Yosemite, cannot insert a pdf document into a pdf document. What's my upgrade?

    I have an iMac with Yosemite. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro van 8.3.1.
    I am unable to insert a pdf document into a  pdf document. I go to Document/Insert in the menu bar, get a spinning ball, can do nothing with the app except force-quit.
    What's my upgrade? I cannot find one. Do I have to pay full price for a version that will work?

    Your version of Acrobat is quite old and not compatible with any current OS, so problems are to be expected. It is too old to qualify for an upgrade as well, so if you want the current version (XI) then you need to purchase a new license, which you can do via the Adobe Products Page.

  • I cannot print a PDF document

    I cannot print a full PDF document from my computer. I open the document and select my printer and click print and I only get the first page. I tell it to do a range of pages and I sometimes get the first 2 pages. Can anyone tell me if there is a setting somewhere that I can change to get this to work. I have downloading the document and saving it to my computer and then printing, and still no luck. This is becoming VERY frustrating.
    Thank you for any help you can give.

  • Cannot Print Some PDF documents

    Hello All,
    I am unable to print some PDF documents to my printer HP (Laserjet Pro 400 color MFP). The MAC OS is Moutain Lion. The documents look like they are printing but no print job is produced and no error message is given.
    Has anyone else experienced this issue?
    Many Thanks

    Hello eorilly5,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you are unable to print from anything from your printer.
    I would recommend these troublehsooting steps from the article named Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147.
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • I recently retired and stopped my subscription to Adobe Pro.  Now I cannot open a pdf document as an attachment in an email.  Can you please advise as to how to correct this problem?

    I recently retired and stopped my subscription toe Adobe Pro.  Now I cannot open a pdf attachment in an email with Adobe Reader.  How can I solve this issue?

    OK. Then the next thing to try is to right-click a PDF file, select Open With, Choose Default Program, then select Reader from the list and tick the "Always use this application..." box, and click OK.

  • Why can't I sign a PDF document?

    When I select the "Sign" pane, all of the options are greyed-out. What is wrong and how can I fix it?

    That depends on the document, though some people are also reporting problems with the lastest Reader update. If the document is secured ij a way that would preclude adding e-signatures, you won't be able to add them. If you're wanting to digitally sign, then the document needs to be specifically enabled for this, either by Acrobat Pro or LiveCycle Reader Extensions. THis is something the creator of the document must do before distributing it.

  • I cannot open a pdf document in Safari 6

    When I clik, on a website to a link opening a pdf document I only get a black screen and no pdf opens!  (Mac OSX Lion et safari version6.0.2
    What dan I do?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Signing a PDF document converts it to a higher PDF Version

    I am using Acrobate 9.3 Standard.  For my industry, we are required to keep our PDF files at Version 1.4 (Adobe 5.0).  However, when we digitally sign a document it forces a save and during that save process it converts the document to Version 1.6 (Adobe 7.0).  Down-converting back to 1.4 obviously invalidats the signature.
    If there a way to force the digital signature signing save to keep the document at Version 1.4?
    Thanks,
    Muiron

    The short answer is no.
    In the Acrobat 5 (PDF 1.4) timeframe all you could do was create a digital signature using an Acrobat generated self-signed certificate. A5 had no concept of certificate chaining or revocation checking, which was introduced in A6 (PDF 1.5). Version 7 introduced time stamping, SHA-256 support, and OCSP revocation checking, and that's the current minimum.The older PDF standards (1.5 and earlier) don't support a signature created in A9.
