Help with Signatures

Hello,
I am trying to sign a PDF with Adobe Reader XI on a MacBook Air. I had an older version of Adobe that worked fine on another computer. I've created a signature in the preferences and clicked it to be allowed to be used for signatures. The signing tool shows up in the menu with the document open, but the specific fields are gray and inactive. Any ideas as to why?

Hi AlaskaMike,
If you open the document in Adobe Reader, the PDF needs to be reader extended.http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7e0d.w .html

Mail - help with signatures please

I want to create an HTML Email signature for Mail on my Mac ...
I've managed to create the HTML, and save as a Webarchive file, and everything worked fine (I only need a simple logo at the bottom of my emails), all was well, it even opened up successfully in Safari.
I imported it into Mail - it showed up fine in the Signatures pane - great.
But when I compose a new mail - the only thing that displays is a little blue square with a '?' in it ... its driving me nuts
Any advice or pointers would be gratefully received
Many thanks in anticipation

I remember well the days when I wanted to toss my PC out the window if I saw another appletsecurity error when running a "signed" javabean through Forms.
I have been able to perform the first part of your question, but have not tried the last. I am retrieving the client IP address (essentially the same process as the GetClientInfo demo javabean), and am also performing some ftp gets locally to the client PC. My setup was this:
* JDeveloper 3.2.3
* Forms 6i, Patch 5a
* JDK 1.1.8
* JInitiator 1.1.8.10
Some helpful hints that are minor messups, but hard to find issues:
* If you're placing your javabean in a package, make sure that you're jarring from the directory directly above your package dirs. For example:
package is oracle.forms per your java code line 1 (package oracle.forms;)
your .java source file resides in c:\javabean directory.
your generated class file should reside in c:\javabean\oracle\forms subdirectory.
you must jar your class file from the directory c:\javabean
c:\javabean>jar -cvf myjar.jar oracle/forms/myclass.class
Double-check this by viewing your manifest file inside the created jar to ensure that the proper package directories have been added.
* Check your case. It is way too easy to mess up the case when jar'ing, when signing, when adding Implementation classes in forms, etc...MyClass in forms must equal MyClass in the manifest file which must equal the physical MyClass.class file. One instance of Myclass or myClass will mean it's all for naught.
* Make sure that the JDK version you use to create your javabean is installed in your Oracle Forms Server installation. If you code in JDK 1.2.2, but only have installed JDK 1.1.8 on your Forms Server machine, then it won't work.
As suggested before, make sure your client PC's are loading & trusting your digital certificates/signatures that you are using to sign the jar files. This means a properly updated identitydb.obj.
Hope this helps.

Need help with Signature on Checks using SAP SCRIPT

Hi,
I am looking for some help on how to get the Printer Resident Singature on to the Check using SAP Script. We have a HP Laser 8150 Priter in which the Chip Contains the Signature ( Printer Resident Singaure ) and currentlly the ORACLE application is able to print this signature on the checks. Right now we are in Migration to SAP and we are trying to get this Signature to print on the Check using SAP Script.
Please help us.

There are many ways to do this, the simplest way to print the signature is using HEX ENDHEX command.
1. Print the Printer font list from the printer configuration menu, Find the signature in the font list, next to it there'll be esacape sequence in ASCII and Hex format.
2. Add the following command in the window of the signature:
/: HEX TYPE PCL
/= Enter the Hex escape sequence(begins with 1B) from first step
/: ENDHEX

Need help with signatures

For a while now, I've been unable to locate the path to create and edit signatures within my Mail client. I know I used to be able to do that, because there's a set of sigs I set up long ago. But I can't find a way to change them or add them to new accounts.
All the help instructions are the same: Mail > Preferences and click Signatures. But as Crom is my witness, I don't see "Signatures" to click.
Either the location has changed and the documentation not updated or else my copy of Mail is broken somehow. Dunno...
Elliott

Elliott,
The Mail Preferences window has its own Toolbar, and that is how you select to make changes in different categories of preference items -- are you sure that Toolbar is not hidden? Open Mail Preferences, and then click on View in the top menubar -- do you see Hide Toolbar or Show Toolbar listed? If Show is displayed, click on that.

Help with signature line (save as?)

I have created a form in livecycle that lets me fill out a form, I created a button that allows me to send the form (as a PDF, not xml) to a specified email address, this all works great with reader extensions etc. However, If I add a signature line, when the user signs the document (which has been emailed to them) it forces the user to save the signed copy of the file. This tends to be a bit tedious for the users, so I would really like for them to be able to sign it, then hit my submit button and send me a copy of the file, Is there a way to make this happen?

I noticed yesterday that using a dialog could offer a built-in number control.
Making a call to a realEditBox and setting its properties like minimumValue:0, maximumValue:99999 will check natively the inpût.
If it's not numbers it prompts for error. >99999 prompts for error.
But building a dialog just for that goal is probably more time consuming than just use a prompt and check the input.
Wha's a pity is that we can't restreign the input to a range of 5 digits (right now, as long as you type in numbers, the string is just bigger and bigger). So the user could not enter anything else than 5 digits.
I had a look too to scripting on event, considering that maybe you would like to force your end users to save the file thsi way everytime. So if they want to close or save the file, the script could take control over the application and force user to save the files your way.
But it's quite a bit totalitary and not so easy to handle I think so far.
What do you think ?

Help with signatures/spawned pages

Hi All,
I have a document with a digital signature. This script executes when the signature is signed:
this.spawnPageFromTemplate( this.getNthTemplate(0), this.pageNum + 1, false,
false );
this.pageNum++;
The new page also has a signature. This script executes when the signature is signed:
this.getField("Text1").display = display.visible
The problem I'm having is that the text field is not revealed?
I would be grateful if anyone could explain why this should not work
PS I need to keep the text field name as per the template (false, false)
Cheers

Thanks again for your reply. I'm not familiar with 'widgets', can you clarify?
I'm hoping to keep the names the same.
Cheers

Help with signature in Mail

How do I put icon links for my Social Network accounts into my signature?

The closest I've been able to come to doing this for Facebook is to copy/paste your Facebook url.
It should look like this: http://www.facebook/your facebook user name
You can copy / paste it right from your Facebook address bar in your browser.
Then drag and drop this icon into the Mail > Preferences - Signatures window.

I need help with validating signatures.

I have Adobe Acrobat X and Reader 9 and need help with how to validate signatures.
I have a document that I am emailing to all employees that require the signature; but, when the form is emailed back, it states that the signatures requires validating.

Or, is the validation something I do once the form is emailed back to me?
I guess a subquestion would be, how to establish/manage trusted certificates with reader or acrobat 8.

Problem in Webdynpro and Adobe form with signature field

Hi experts!
I have a problem with Signature Field in Adobe Form showed in a Web Dynpro Abap.
During the execution I fill the Signature field correctly but when I push any other button of the Webdynpro, the Adobe Form shows me the next error.
After click OK, the webdynpro is hang and not respond.
Any idea why not respond?
Thanks.

Hi friend,
Its not like that the Adobe created using SFP is non interactive.
We can create interactive forms using SFP transaction using java code.
I think it will be the problem with ADS just check with your basis people i think they will configure you the settings which works fine.
To check whether the settings are perfect you can try executing the standard programs FP_TEST_00 and
FP_PDF_TEST_00. If it works fine then some other problem exists else check with your basis team.
Just check this and revert me if you have any issues. I will help you
Thanks,
Sri Hari

Help with java digital signing code

hello people.
can anybody help me?
i have find a java code to resolve my problem with sending pay in soap envelope with digital signature and attached certificate. i compiled it with jdk jdk1.6.0_37. and it works.
i need it to work in built-in jvm in oracle 9i. in oracle 9i jvm release is 1.3.1. Java code does not work there. there is an error
class import com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.dv.util.Base64 not found in import.
i did not find this class in network.
can anybody help with rewriting it for jvm 1.3.1?
thanks in advance.
code below:
import com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.dv.util.Base64;
import java.io.*;
import java.security.Key;
import java.security.KeyStore;
import java.security.PrivateKey;
import java.security.Signature;
import java.security.cert.Certificate;
public class Sign {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
// TODO code application logic here
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("c:\\cert.p12"));
StringBuilder fullText = new StringBuilder();
String line = reader.readLine();
while (line != null) {
fullText.append(line);
line = reader.readLine();
KeyStore p12 = KeyStore.getInstance("pkcs12");
p12.load(new FileInputStream("c:\\cert.p12"), "Hfrtnf$5".toCharArray());
//????????? ????????? ????, ??? ????? ????? ???????????? alias ? ??????
//Key key = p12.getKey("my kkb key", "ryba-mech".toCharArray());
Key key = (Key) p12.getKey("my kkb key", "Hfrtnf$5".toCharArray());
Certificate userCert = (Certificate) p12.getCertificate("my kkb key");
String base64Cert = new String(Base64.encode(userCert.getEncoded()));
//signing
Signature signer = Signature.getInstance("SHA1withRSA");
signer.initSign((PrivateKey) key);
signer.update(fullText.toString().getBytes());
byte[] digitalSignature = signer.sign();
String base64sign = new String(Base64.encode(digitalSignature));
String base64Xml = new String(Base64.encode(fullText.toString().getBytes()));
System.out.println("<certificate>" + base64Cert+"</certificate>");
System.out.println("<xmlBody>" + base64Xml+"</xmlBody>");
System.out.println("<signature>" + base64sign+"</signature>");

My first search is to see if there is an Apache commons project that provides it. Lo and behold:

Unable to find module dependency with signature microsoft_VC100_CRT_x86.DF495...

I am fairly new to Measurement studio and am having an issue.I am running visual studio 2010 SP1 and measurement studio 2013. my project runs fine in the developement environment. But when I try to make an installer package I am getting these errors when I try to build the setup project.
unable to find module dependency with signature microsoft_VC100_CRT_x86.DF495...
Two or more objects have the same target location('[policydir]\9.0.30729.1.cat')
two or more objects have the same target location ('[payload_ul]9.030729.1.policy')
when looking at all of the detected dependencies module dependencies I found that mstudiocommon2010.msm and mstudioui.msm
had microsoft_VC100_CRT_x86.AFA... as a dependancy but the current merge module had the DF495 signature.
After reading some of the posts I saw that if you were running Visual studio SP1 you may need to goto the pre SP1 files.
I did this and the warnings for msstudiocommon2010.msm and mstudioui.msm went away.
now I have the problem MStudiodaqmx.2010.msm has a dependency on microsoft_vc100_crt_x86.DF495
but that got replaced when i went back to the older versions. I am at aloss as to what to do at this point.
As for the policy and payload error I was hoping these would disappear when the other issue is cleared up but I may be wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi vmrak,
Just to clarify, have you been following the steps in the Deploying Measurement Studio Applications KB article and using the files posted in the Problems building InstallShield installer after upgrading to MS 2010 forum post? Also, where are you seeing that MStudiodaqmx.2010.msm is dependent on microsoft_vc100_crt_x86.DF495? If you're receiving an error that says this, would you mind posting a screenshot of it?
You could try keeping both the old and the new versions of the merge modules in the same directory on your computer to see if all the correct references are made this way.

I need help with a 1 Page Form with scrollable text field (5000 limit characters) and printing

Hello, I have no training in using Adobe Acrobat Pro or Livecycle Designer so I need major help with a 1 page form that I am attempting to create. Basically the form will be used to nominate employees for a Job Well Done Award.
The form contains the following:
1.) The name(s) of the employees being nominated and the date of the accomplishment.
2.) In the middle of the page I have a section for a write up, limited to 5000 characters, this is were I am needing the most help. A couple of things, about this section: The font is set at 11 and I don't want it to change. The text field has multiple-line, scroll long text enabled. The text field is a certain size and can only hold so much text, then it starts to scroll, which I am ok with, I like that feature. The issue I am having is during printing. I would like to keep the text field scrollable but when I print I would like to be able to print everything in that field. Executing this is the problem, I have no clue how to do it. I was hoping for some setting within Acrobat Pro or LiveCycle to be available, but the more I read and research this, it appears that it may require java, xml, basically some coding. I don't know for sure.
3.) Below the text field I have another field for the person nominating to type their name and right next to that another field for a digital signature.
4.) And finally below those two fields I have a Submit button that is setup to start email application so the form can be emailed to the proper inbox.
Thank you in advance.

With an Acrobat form the only thing you can do is export the text to
another location (like a blank field on another page) or to another file
format. With an LCD form you can expand the text box itself, but you'll
need to ask about that over at the LCD Scripting forum.

No method with signature - initProfiles() error

Hi,
I am working on HRMS Talent Managment .
we have added a new region to setObjectives page and added related co,vo and added the vo to the AM.
After running the page I am getting "No method with signature - initProfiles()" in the page .
Please help me to resolve this error
Thanks
Uma.

Uma,
try to delete all class files, recompile and run! Also, check if any CO is not extended other than from OAControllerImpl, although it would not be generally.

Help with running multiple threads

I'm new to programming with threads. I want to know how to run
multiple threads at the same time. Particularly for making games
in Java which I'm also begining to learn. For running multiple
threads at the same time, do you have to put two run() methods
in the source? If not then how do you make two threads or more
run at the same time?
Thanks for helping.

For running multiple
threads at the same time, do you have to put two run()
methods
in the source? Hi there,
Each thread is presumably performing a task. You may be performing the same task multiple times or be performing different tasks at once. Either way, each task would typically be contained within the run() method of a class. This class would either be a subclass of java.lang.Thread (extends Thread) or would be an implementation of java.lang.Runnable (implements Runnable). In either case, you would define a method with signature (public void run()...). The difference comes into play when you wish to actually perform one of these tasks. With a subclass of Thread, you would simply perform:
new MyTask().start();
With an implementation of Runnable, you would do this:
new Thread(new MyTask()).start();
This assumes you don't need to monitor the threads, won't be sending any messages to your tasks or any such thing. If that were the case, you would need to tuck away those returns to new MyTask() for later access.
In order to launch two threads simultaneously, you would have something along the lines of:
new MyTask().start();
new MyOtherTask().start();
Now it is perfectly possible that MyTask() would complete before MyOtherTask() managed to start in which case it wouldn't appear as if you had actually had multiple threads running, but for non-trivial tasks, the two will likely overlap. And of course, in a game, these tasks would likely be launched in response to user input, which means that you wouldn't have any control over when or in what order they executed.
Anyhow, it's as simple as that. You should also consider following the Java Threading trail which shows a simple example of using multiple threads. You can find it at:
