Editing a signed and stamped document

I have sealed an electronic set of design plans (PDF file) by placing my electronic stamp and signature into the PDF file. I then protected the file (to protect my PE stamp and signature). This protection also restricts future users from adding notes and comments to this PDF file. The client has asked us to remove the protection so that bidders can add notes to their plan sets. Is there a way to keep the integrity of my PE stamp and signature protected, but still allow future users to add notes and comments?

Is it a stamp of your signature or a digital signature? If it's a stamp, you can simply flatten the document (annotations) and don't restrict commenting. You can flatten annotations several ways with Acrobat, but the following free JavaScript-based tool makes it easy: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

  • Hoe to edit Word, Excell and Powerpoint documents

    Hello 
    I had installed the BlackBerry Device Software 4.5 on my BlackBerry 8310 and would like to know how to edit Word, Excel and Powerpoint documents. 
    Can I edit files that i sent from the computer to the device memory card and then send it by email.
    Thankyou

    Hi there!
    If your BB came with the DataViz ToGo apps, then you can indeed do what you desire. Check under (usually) Applications for Word-to-go, sheet-to-go and other ToGo apps. You can edit a file you save to your device or media card memory. You can send them as attachments. Etc.
    Hope that helps!

  • Why does new version of Adobe reader for Windows 8 not give signed and saved document the "signed" extension when you save the file after placing a signature...  this worked on an earler version.

    I have upgraded my PC to new Windows 8 machine ..  Now when I place a signature on document and save it does not automatically place a "signed" extension on the filename.  Previous version on my machine always did this.
    Why is this ,  can I set up my new version to do same...

    When you "save as" as opposed to simply "save", there is sometimes a different location for the file to be saved. When you "save as" to the same location as an original, you will bewarned that a file already exists with that name and be asked if you're sure you want ot overwrite the original file. If you didn't see that when "saving as", you probably saved the signed file to a different location.

  • Word and excel documents

    Am I correct that there is no way to edit my word and excel documents once they are on my Palm Pre??!!! I can't believe I went from a 5 year old smart phone to a new Pre and lost the ability to modify documents (with the promise of being able to do it in the future, and at what cost???).  What a rip off, I should have gone with droid technology!
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Palm has not released specific information on whether an Office document editor will be included in webOS 2.0. However, speculation is rampant that QuickOffice will be releasing a document editor, either as part of 2.0 or as a stand-alone app.
    What we do know is that Dataviz, the company that produced the current doc viewer (as well as Documents To Go for Palm OS and other platforms), won't be producing an editing version for webOS in spite of their earlier promises. They're been purchased by RIM (Blackberry).

  • Reading PDF files, WORD documents and Excel documents on iPod Touch

    Can some of you recommend the best application to read (if not amend or edit) pdf, Word and Excel documents on my iPod Touch? Mine is a first generation (Dec 2007 purchase) currently using OS 2.x (but could upgrade to 3.1.1 at anytime and will soon) - 16 gb capacity.
    PDF files are a must - and how to move them from my MacBook to the iPod touch?
    Others, including even PowerPoint or Keynote presentations - that'd be great if I could view them!
    Thanks for any comments on the various programs (are there many?) and which ones are the best in your experience(s).
    Best regards,

    I don't know if this what you are looking for but there is an application that let's you save email attachments directly to your iPod touch without having to work with your pc or mac on wifi to transfer files. The name for the application is: "Download Manager".... Link to the application is below.

  • Editing a signed document

    Hi
    Previously when using a form we were able to make changes to a form after the document was signed. In this way we could save a document and open it and make a slight change ( add a new name) and then save that document without having to fill it out from scratch.Is there a way to ensure that when 'done signing' is selected and the document is saved we can then open that document and make changes to fields? The document is just used for workflow purposes.
    EDIT: When 'done signing' is selected a dialogue box states that- 'Any signatures or addded text will now be permanently merged into the PDF to finalise the changes and file will be saved'.
    We are using Acrobat Version 10.1.3 and I believe some machines may have Acrobat 10.1.2.
    Thanks,
    Brent

  • Flattening and editing a signed doc with XPro

    Hello Acrobat Experts
    I am a Carpentry Tutor in a Welsh College.
    I have produced an Acrobat document with working links in the index to specific assessment criteria in the document, This has worked very well until I had an external Quality person to digitally sign where he had checked the Learners work.  He did this with my help, however I do not know his password.
    The problem is I can not  flatten the Quality persons signature into the document or more importantly edit the previously working links.
    I had regularly used a flatten page script with great success on this document after reviewing the learners work, and still have success using it with other unsigned versions of the document. However Java script now tells me security settings do not allow this????? All worked perfectly before. Please help Thank you, Roger.

    I need the signature as it authenticates the learners work. The problem is keeping it on a different layer disables my ability to edit the other previously working links.
    I know I have the option of using third party software to disable the security settings that are stopping me from editing the signed version. I could then then flatten using Acrobat. I just wanted to do it without using third party software.
    Can anyone tell me if this is possible?????????

  • How to edit / remove watermarks after the document is digitally signed

    how to edit / remove watermarks after a document is digitally signed ?

    Hello Dave,
    Thank you for your reply.
    I have 2 things to mention.
    (1)It is possible to do so if I open the document in Acrobat 8.
    (2) Is there any work around solution for X-pro ?
        I create a draft document and send it for approval with “draft” watermark.
        I receive it back after approval with the approver’s signature.
      Then I have to remove the “draft” watermark.
      How can I do it?
    Any suggestion will be appreciated
    Thank you.

    I have adobe editions 4.0 and I've been trying to get library books on my kobo for over 2 hours! The book goes onto my Kobo fine, but when I try to open in on my kobo it says, "Oops! The document couldn't be opened. It's protected by ADRM and is not currently authorized for use with your Adobe ID." It does it with every single book. I've never had this problem before. I've tried everything! Please help.

    same problem for me. I am using abe edition 3 as I don't think 4 can be used with kobo. Book has been downloaded to kobo but it can't be read as it is not authorised.Help please

  • We are unable to open a Pages 5.0.1 document in Pages 4.2 and retain ability to edit all aspects of the document. I have tried saving the 5.0.1 version as Pages '09 and am still unable to open it in the earlier version of pages. Help?

    We are unable to open a Pages 5.0.1 document in Pages 4.2 and retain ability to edit all aspects of the document. I have tried saving the 5.0.1 version in Pages '09 but am still unable to open it in the earlier version of pages. Help?

    No, it isn't. Pages 5 isn't compatible with Pages 4.3 as it is lacking more than 90 features that Pages 4 has. So when you open a Pages 4 document in Pages 5 only the simplest documents will look the same in Pages 5.
    Pages 4 can't open Pages 5 documents at all!! You have to export back to Pages 09 as I said above.
    You probably will be more happy if you just use Pages 4 (Pages 09). There are many threads in this forum that describes the lack of compatibility between the two versions. Pages 5 is in my view not Pages anymore.
    If you don't desperately need Pages 5 for moving documents over iCloud to new iOs devices don't use it.

  • Adobe Acrobate XI and SecCommerce SecSigner have a problem during signing of a document, creating/verification of the signature is not possible - solutions?

    Adobe Acrobate XI and SecCommerce SecSigner have a problem during signing of a document, creating/verification of the signature is not possible - solutions? SecSigner is not responding.

    Well, I contacted SecCommerce about the issue, the response was, that I should sign the file later (afterwards). This is a solution, but not the best in my opinion.
    When I sign the document the SecSigner window/Java window appears and freezes. Adobe is not responding. I have to terminate Adobe because the program is not responding.
    I only found this support website, so I have realized that this is a User 2 User site, but it was a try to get some help.

  • Signing and saving a document in Acrobat 8.0

    We would like to bypass the sign and save As dialog which appears when
    1. Sign a document
    2. click on Sign
    Is there any way we could acheive this

    We have written a plugin. We do not wish to interfere with the Signing process. All we want is that the original document should be saved with the signature instead of displaying the Save As dialog.
    In Acrobat 7.0, there were 2 buttons on the Sig Dialog viz. "Sign And Save" and "Sign And Save As". Sign And Save would save the signature in the same document. However in Acrobat 8, there is only one button "Sign" and this button displays the Save As dialog. The behavior is similar to Sign And Save As in Acrobat 7.

  • Unable to digitally sign and save a PDF document

    I am currently using ADOBE ACROBAT 8.0 Professional (Ver 8.1.0).  I provide proofreading service for a client.  The client provides me with a PDF which I use the comment and mark up tool to indicate required changes.  Once all of the comments are complete, I mark the document approved or disapproved and attach a digital signature.
    Recently, many files that I have recieved from the client will not allow me to sign and save the PDF.  I can save the PDF without the signature but not when it is digitally signed.  The error reads:
    "The document could not be saved.   A number is out of range"
    I queried my client to find out if they have made any changes.  They have recently upgraded to Illustrator 4 and they create the PDF's for me from the Illustrator files they work from.  There are four teams using the same Illustrator program but not all of them are producing files that I cannot sign and save.
    Can anyone tell me what the error indicates?  Is there a property assigned to the document that I can not recognize that refers to this problem.
    Since the files I work on contain proprietary information, I prefer not to attach them to this forum.  If anyone is interested in helping, I will share a file to fully explain my problem.

    I will try that, thank you.

  • Detect what the default edit form is for a document library and list using jquery

    Hi,
    So what I have done is with some jquery made it that when a files are dragged and dropped into a document library and there is a required field such as "Metadata" the EditForm.aspx opens up for the user to fill in the required column. I am building
    the url up from what I have found in SharePoints DragDrop.js file. This is all working perfectly I just need to find a way to dynamically find what the default edit form is for that document library as I have just hardcoded like this...
    g_currentControl.strSiteUrl + "/" + this.ListName + "/Forms/EditForm.aspx?ID=" + id
    So I need a way to figure out what the default edit form is instead of hard coding like this in case someone creates a custom_editform.aspx or something for one of the lists.
    Thanks

    You can get it by hitting this REST end point via JQuery:
