Connecting to an Electronic Signature Pad

Hello,
We have just purchased Acrobat 9.0 Pro for our business and are trying to get it to work with an electronic signature pad. Both the ignature pad and Acrobat are installed and working: I was told by multiple different personel that Acrobat would work with an electronic signature pad. However, I am not able to get the epad and acrobat to talk to each other. I have tried going to Edit->Preferences->Security (Advanced Settings) -> Create -> Signature Default drop-dpwn menu, but it is not allowing me to connect. The ePad is supposed to be compatilbe with Acrobat, and I was, as mentioned above, told that Acrobat would work with an ePad. I am not opposed to returning the pad IF I have to and purchasing one through Adobe, but as far as I know they do not sell hardware. Help appreciated!

Did Adobe tell you the pad was compatible or somebody else. Personally, I'd recommend you drop the electronic pad idea and switch to digital signatures.

Multiple Electronic Signatures using Signature PAD

Hello Experts,
We have a requirement where we need to capture the electronic signature on thee PDF form at different time. This means I fill the PDF form get the 1st electronic signature using signature PAD and then saved the form. I open the same form and then take the 2nd signature. When we are taking the 2nd signature on the saved form it's making the form and signature invalid.
Please let me know if there's a restriction by Adobe PDF such that you can't accept the signature once it's signed and saved.
Thanks, Ritesh

Yes, that's an e-signature. An option if you need to set up multiple e-signatures is to use stamps. They can be flattened individually, which converts them to regular page contents. The Acrobat help has more information on using stamps and you can use the following free JavaScript-based utility to flatten them after they're applied if you want: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

How can I connect my ipad to my mac and use it as a signature pad?

The company I work for want utilize the ipads we have and use them as signature pads for clients to sign off on authorization forms. Is this possible and How can I got about doing this?

It has nothing to do with the device. The way Wi-Fi works, an end device can only be associated with a single access point at a time. And the iPad will attempt to latch on to the strongest signal it gets, in case there are several usable access points at any given moment.

Topaz signature pad and Reader 10/11

Background:
I am working on the County Attorney's Case Management Project which will make all court documents filing electronic and as part of that process we will require all signatures on court documents to be digital only. We currently have Adobe integration with our software and will be using Adobe to sign the documents. Currently most County Attorney's offices user Reader not Acrobat.
Question:
We are using a Topaz Systems SigLite 1x5 LCD Signature Pad as our test/training signature pad. In Reader when we try to sign we are not getting a signature capture window, instead we are only able to use the default Adobe signature options of drawing, text, or inserting an image. Is there anyway to get the signature capture to appear for use when signing? (assuming all of the security properties for the document are set properly, which I have verified) I can get this to work perfectly in Acrobat. I'm trying to make the process of signing all of these docs for the attorneys easy and with the fewest amount of keystrokes and clicks as possible.
Thanks!

Check to make sure that it's actually available in Reader. I think the following should show it: Help > About Adobe plug-ins
There is also a user preference that can affect its availability: Edit > Preferences > General > Use only certified plug-ins
If this doesn't help, check to make sure the plug-in is actually present in the plug-ins folder for each Reader installation.
If you can confirm the the plug-in is correctly installed and loaded in Reader and it still doesn't work, I'd then contact Topaz.

Unable return sucessful validate when using signature pad

I need to verify that the user signed the form. We are using a signature pad to capture the electronic signature. And then using the code below in a button to validate. If the signature is left blank I do get the message that the "Signature is not valid: signature is blank". But if I complete the signature field I do not get anything back.
var f = event.target.getField("form1[0].S1[0].SignatureField1[0]");
// Validate the signature field:
var status = f.signatureValidate();
/* signatureValidate method returns one of the following integer validity status values:
-1: not a signature field
0: signature is blank
1: unknown status
2: signature is invalid
3: signature is valid, identity of signer could not be verified
4: signature and identity of signer are both valid
// Obtain the signature information
var sigInfo = f.signatureInfo();
if (status < 3)
var msg = "Signature is not valid: " + sigInfo.statusText;
else
var msg = "Signature is valid: " + sigInfo.statusText;
// Display the status message:
app.alert(msg);;
I have also tried just returning the status using
app.alert("Signature status: " + status);
When I leave the signature blank I get "Signature status: 0"
When I fill in the signature, I don't get the message box.
Is there another command for validating with a signature pad.
Thanks,
Velvet

try using the status property. This is currently working for me.
var oState = event.target.getField(("form1[0].S1[0].SignatureField1[0]").signatureInfo().status;

Using the iPad as a signature pad

We would like to use an iPad as a signature pad for a document on as desktop computer. I've researched several apps but they all seem to want the document on the iPad but we will need to have the document on the desktop computer. We would like to be able to connect the iPad through its cable and use the iPad as a signature pad for the document(s) that require a signature.
These are work computer computers running Windows 7 and Windows 8.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

You could crank up a screen sharing app on the pc which the ipad could access. Use can then sign document.
I'm drawing a blank. What were the names of those tablets you could use to draw on as input devices to computers? Could look for such an app in the app store.

Basic electronic signature implementation...

Hi... need
a little help with this one.. I was expecting it to be a walk on the park but
I'm finding some road blocks...<o:p></o:p>
I have a
Picture Library called "Electronic Signatures" that stores pictures of
the users scanned signatures, with their username as the
"Description"<o:p></o:p>
I have a
List called "PIN List" where I store a list of PINs with the username
as the "Title" of the item...<o:p></o:p>
I have a
Web Browser enabled form where I created a data connection to the "PIN
List" and another one to the Picture Library.<o:p></o:p>
NOTE:
Remember that the field "Description" on the picture library is = to
the "Title" field on the PIN list<o:p></o:p>
This is
what I had in mind:<o:p></o:p>
Get the
username in a field on the form and ask the use to enter his PIN in another
field.<o:p></o:p>
If the PIN
entered by the user is = to the pin stored on the "PIN List" where
[username() - is equal to - "Title"] insert an image stored in the
Picture Library where [username() - is equal to - "Description"]<o:p></o:p>
In short
what I'm trying to do is to validate the user with a PIN number and if it passes
validation to show an image of his/her signature on the form...<o:p></o:p>
How crazy
does this sound???? I would appreciate if you can tell me how to implement it
and make it work<o:p></o:p>
Thanks in advance.

Hey!!!!! It works perfectly!!! I'm very new to all this InfoPath and SharePoint, but your solution was really clear and helped a lot...
I had some doubts on very specific steps as I went along, but I attribute that to my very low level of experience... nothing that a good old "trial and error" would not solve.
I have some suggestions for other articles for you to evaluate if are worth to give it a try....
Thanks once again for your help!!!
Thanks in advance.

Recognizing Topaz signature pad

We are using a practice management system which has an Adobe Acrobat acknowledgement form for patients to sign via a Topaz signature pad. When we select to "add a device connected to this computer" we get an error message "Acrobat could not find any new digital IDs......"
Can you help?

Do you have the Topaz plug-in for Acrobat installed?

Multiple electronic signatures in PDF portfolio

I Have a PDF portfolio that has multiple PDFs in it each requiring 1 or more electronic signatures. The problem is that after the first person signs one of the PDFs no one else is able to and they receive an error saying it's already open or they have read only access

Which Acrobat version do you have? I've heard that there is a bug in this area in Acrobat 11.0.7. I do not have personal experience with it and I do not know how soon it will be fixed.

I have adobe Acrobat - I am trying to do a electronic signature and its is asking for a passwork

I am trying to sign a document that is protected from an university. It is asking me for a password to put in my electronic signature. I don't have that password and it isn't the one for my account

Hi Estella,
It sounds like the university has disallowed signing in this particular document, unless you have Document Permissions password. You will have to ask the person who created the document what the password is, so that you can sign the document.
I wish I had a different answer for you--but there's no way around that without the document password.
Best,
Sara

Can I open a Reader 9 Document with electronic signatures in Reader 10?

I currently have an Adobe Reader 9 document with fields filled out and also with several electronic signatures.
I need to be able to edit this document.
My understanding is that I can only edit or add the typewritter tool only when using Reader 10.
So couple of questions. First, will I be able to open this Reader 9 document using Reader 10?
Second, will I be able to add the typewritter tool once I download Reader 10?
Third, will I be able to make changes to existing form field data, once I add the typewritter tool?
Fourth, will this process invalidate the digital signatures already authenticated?

The "Typewriter tool" is only available in Acrobat Pro. Reader 11 DOES have the ability to "Add text comments" to a PDF but it isn't exactly the same thing. I'm unsure if "comments" will print or not.
