How to Create a Signature Stamp-Presized

I have been able to create a stamp in Paint, then saved it as a PDF. The initial image was 3.2x1.9 inches. But when I saved it as a PDF, it did not retain it's original size, it blows up to a massive scale. Not sure why, but it feels like there should be a setting to maintain size, almost like scaling, when converting to PDF. Anyways, My work around was to extend the image borders to 8.5x11 inches, and this worked for this item.
Now I want to do the same with my signature, but no matter how I do it or what I change, the image is either its natural  small size paint file and when saved as PDF it gets massive or I adjust the sheet, like I did with the other image, and then I end up with the massive block like feature with a tiny signature on it.
Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.
I am on Windows 7 pro
Adobe XI 11.0.1
No other image editing options unless done inside Microsoft office apps, besides paint.
Purchasing additional software is not an option.

CtDave, thanks for the excellent  write up of instructions. I had to look up a few of those commands as I have never actually used them. But it was easy enough to follow. I followed each step precisely and I was in fact able to create a proper sized signature file. Although, I ran into one issue.  The rotation of the signature is 90 degrees relative to how it shoudl be. I have tried rotating the signature in normal and also 90 degrees relative. I have also tried changing the page orientation from portrait to landscape. No matter how I change it, it comes in rotated going vertical. But on the upside, eveything else worked flawlessly. Any chance you have a fix for the rotation issue?
Thanks again for the help.

    My Settings won't stick; I don't know how to create a signature
    How can I correct these two difficulties please?

    Sorry, not clear. I meant "My Settings" (top right hand corner of FCE Discussions window), not in FCE itself. The time zone setting is accepted but the next time I look it has reverted to USA GMT-8 hours, and some other settings are similarly affected
    and by "signature" I meant some text that always appears at the bottom of Discussions messages, saying somethink like "Mac Pro 2.0 GHz, FCE 3.5" etc. I can't see a place to specify that.
    (But now I see something has appeared!)
    Thanks.

  • HOW TO CREATE A DYNAMIC STAMP ON ACROBAT X PRO????????

    I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CREATE A  CUSTOM DYNAMIC STAMP ON ADOBE ACROBAT X PRO, I CAN EASILY CREATE A STAMP FROM A pdf FILE BUT WHEN TRYING TO INSERT A TEXT OR CHECK BOXES THEY DO NOT GET ATTACHED TO MY NEWLY CREATED STAMP WHEN I SELECT THAT STAMP ON THE STAMPS PALETE, PLEASE HELP AS ADOBE ACROBAT ONLINE SUPPORT EXEMPT THEMSELVES FROM SUPPORTING WHAT THEY CALLED "OLDER VERSIONS"

    If you need the kind of advanced dynamic stamp that it seems you want, one that prompts you for data to include in the stamp just prior to it being applied to the page, it will require JavaScript. In particular, it will likely best be done with a custom dialog, which requires some rather arcane scripting. I usually advise folks in your position to find someone to do this for you, at least for the first stamp. Feel free to send a PM if you'd like professional help.
    The following book has more information about custom stamps, but lacks much information about the type of dynamic stamp that you're wanting to create: http://www.amazon.com/About-Stamps-Acrobat%C2%AE-Paperless-Workflows/dp/0985614706
    That last part isn't a criticism of the book, which is very good. Custom dialogs are complicated, and using them with stamps adds more complication, so the subject really needs a book of its own to be handled thoroughly.

  • I Cannot Figure Out How To Create A Signature Spot! Help Please!

    Hi,
    I'm not very good at all this stuff.  Long story short I have a contract drawn up that I need to use for doing business with my customers.  At the bottom I want to leave a box where they simply click when they're reading the PDF, and it allows them to draw in a signature.
    I first encountered this kind of thing on a W2 form, and it was so easy it worked without even pulling me off the browser.
    I have Acrobat Pro 10.1.1, but I simply cannot figure out how to do this.
    If anyone has the time, step-by-step instructions that a 6-year-old could follow is probably necessary with this.
    It would be so much appreciated.
    Thank you.
    -Robert

    It's possible that the W2 you used was set up with the EchoSign service. It allows you to draw a signature with a mouse. This is available as well with more recent versions of Reader (10.1+) if the form isn't Reader-enabled or secured. You will see this in the Sign panel when the document is opened in Reader.
    You can otherwise get an EchoSign account and upload your document and send it to your customers through the EchoSign service. You can establish a free account to see how it works.

  • How to create SHA2 signature in Outlook 2013?

    My company has upgraded all Office software recently, from Office 2007 to Office 2013.
    In Outlook 2007, I can create email with SHA2 signature. However, I can't find the same configuration in Outlook 2013.
    Does anyone have the same problem?

    My support contact couldn't find any support cases or bug reports - he found this article
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/pki/archive/2010/09/30/sha2-and-windows.aspx but it wouldn't apply here, since Outlook 2013 doesn't run on the older OS's and the newer OSs support SHA2. I recommend opening a support case - if this is a recently purchased copy
    of Office, you may be within the window for free support calls.

  • How to create a photo stamp or brush in iPhoto?

    I'm wanting to know if there is a way within iPhoto to put a logo/stamp/brush onto my photos? Or do I need a program/app outside of iPhoto? Some of my 'unprofessional' photos are getting some attention, so I would like to 'brand' them. Thanks!

    Are you by any change wanting to put a copywrite notice on photos? If so that is no a part of iPhoto (it is in Aperture) and requires thirdparty software or an external editor - Google will show you third party software - Preview can do it as an external editor

  • How to create a plugin to stamp texts and not an image into a pdf document

    How to create plugin to stamp texts and not an image.. i just want it to work like the stamper plugin found in sdk sample but here i need text to be stamped instead of an image.. Is it possible? kindly give me some ideas?how to go about it.. can this be done by modfying the stamper sample code?
    Thank you

    This is possible, but it is a serious project, not something to be cut around from sample code. You will need to study the "graphics" and "text" chapters of the PDF specification in some detail to understand the PDF graphics model, including colour spaces, graphics state, and transformation matrixes; if working with annotations understand them and the requirement for appearance stream. There are various ways to add content to a PDF, but the PDFEdit API is probably the most accessible.

    Hi Pradeepa,
    you said you have your digital signature in
    BMP format? That means Bitmap and would mean you are actually talking about a picture! THIS IS NOT A DIGITAL SIGNATURE!
    A digital signature is a cryptographic key (aka public key cryptography) that is used to digitally sign a document, or at least a hash value derived from the document. Digitally signing means, applying the key in a well defined way (this is the algorithm used) to the document or hash value. You do this with your private key and the receiver of the document can then use your public key (which you can distribute in any way you want, even unsecure) to unencrypt the hash value. If this succeeds the receiver knows that the document was signed by you.
    This is because both keys are mathematically related in such a way, that what one key encrypted can only be decrypted by the corresponding other key and by no other key. You even can´t decrypt a document with the same key it was encrypted with, this is the difference to symmetric encryption - please have a look at help.sap.com and search for digital signatures.
    The named formats (afs, pfx and p12) are ways of coding the key, together with information about your person, such as email address and information about validity of the key into a
    certificate. This type of certificate is then called a x.509 certificate and is the same you might have seen when connecting to a secure webserver such as the one of your bank website. 
    Signing a form with such a certificate provides for mathematically and therefore business related proove of a users identity.
    In case you are really using a bitmap, this cannot work and would not serve you any good.
    Ask yourself this question: I want to make sure that the form was signed by a specific person. How can I make sure that the signing can only be done by the person pretending to have done so?
    A bitmap contains a picture, probably of the persons handwritten signature. How can I make sure that this picture was NOT recreated in MS Paint or Photoshop by someone else?
    The answer is:
    you can't! Therefore this way of prooving identity is useless. 
    You need to provide your users with digital signatures, put these in the certificate cache of your IE.  If a user then clicks on the signing field, the private key is used to digitally sign the form - create a hash value of the form and encrypt it with the private key. After the form is send back to the server or you, you use the corresponding public key to decrypt the hash value and, as said above, if this succeeds, identity of the signer is proven.
    THIS IS AN OVERSIMPLIFICATION! You might want to take a look at Adobe Reader Credentials.

       Christian
