How to disable digital signing and saving of PDF form?

I have a PDF form that I have created. It does not have a signature field becuase I need them to print and physically sign the form. However no matter what I do Adobe Reader offers the option to digitally sign the form (as well as save it). How do I disable this?? Thank you for the help in advance.

Thank you for the answer and explanation. Unfortunately I am still not sure the best solution.
It is a business application for a city site. As a result the limit of 500 is obviously not going to work. Also for legal reasons they need the form physically signed.
The original hope was to provide a PDF form that could be filled in (almost entirely) on the computer if desire and then printed, signed, and turned in to the city.
What they don't want is for someone to fill it out on the computer, use the echosign and email it as they need the physical signature.
Sounds like we might have to choose between:
- not having it interactive (so they can just print it out and fill it out)
Or
- make it so they can fill it out on the computer, but include instructions that they need the print it out and physically sign it. And hope they follow the instructions.
Again, thank you for the explanation. I think I will just have to let them decide.

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.

How to disable confirmation message when submitting a pdf form

How do I disable the confirmation mesage, so that the user does not get at message like " you form has been recieved" each time data is submitted?
The reason for my question, is that i have a pdf form that i'd like to fill out offline, store the settings (data) in an array and the when I get online again run a loop that populates the form with the values storen in my array and submits them one at the time to formscentral.
I'm able to make the loop work just fine, however I do not want to see the confirmation message each time data is submitted, because my loop is paused each time the confirmation message appears, and the only way to resume it, is to click "ok".
Hope someone can provide me with some help here

Hi,
>>however I do not want to see the confirmation message each time data is submitted, because my loop is paused each time the confirmation message appears, and the only way to resume it, is to click "ok".
Sorry, disabling the confirmation message is not possible. The confirmation is always enabled.
Thanks,

How to copy a document and paste in pdf form

I have an email that I copied. I need to paste to a document in PDF form. Does any one know how I am to do this?

Do you want to create a PDF from the email? Or add the content of the email to an existing PDF file? In either case, you can use Acrobat to do the job. If you don't have Acrobat, please feel free to give it a try. You can download a 30-day trial form http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.

How do I digitally sign with reader XI when the fill and sign functions are grayed out?

I am using Adobe Reader XI. I am suppose to digitally sign a fillable .pdf document for online submission. However, the fill and sign functions are grayed out.
What are my options to put a signature in the signature box of the document?
Thank you in advance!

Pat Willener,
Thank you for replying.
Here is an image capture of the properties.
The document is part of a job application that is suppose to be digitally signed and submitted soon. I have thought about printing, signing, and redigitizing to submit, however, the cells are statically sized and do not expand to include all of the information when printed.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

How to disable external VGA and also enable onboard VGA

hello,

mis zh77A GA43
vga hd7770 msi
i want to know, how to disable external VGA and also enable onboard VGA ??
and
i want to ask too, if i disable external VGA In MB, it is my external VGA still consumption power? or i must unplug my external VGA ?
how much different power consumption between external VGA and onboard VGA on idle time?
because my computer each night be used for download, i want to save power as i can...
also there is a eco mode? i want to know about eco mode, how much power can be save under eco mode? on idle time computer
sorry my bad english

Well remove the HD7770 and is disabled and doesn't consume any power. You can't enable or disable it the discrete vga when pc is in use. That board does also not support Virtu.
The possible power saving beacuse of eco mode depends on the individual systems. There is no general value. Just try it.

How to disable 'Enable JavaScript' and 'Display PDF in browser' in Adobe Reader 9.1 msi?

I'd like to how to disable 'Enable JavaScript' and 'Display PDF in browser' in Adobe Reader 9.1 msi.
Any help would be appreciated.

NeoChang:
You can modify the installation package using the Adobe Customization Wizard to toggle the "Display PDF in Browser" but I have not found a setting to disable JavaScript from the Wizard. I have created a script which makes the changes, but it has to be run for every user since that info is stored in the User hive of the Windows registry.
Disable JavaScript:
REG ADD "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\JSPrefs" /v bEnableJS /d 0 /t REG_DWORD /f
Disable Browser Integration:
REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /v bBrowserIntegration /d 0 /t REG_DWORD /f

How to disable iMac screen and not to put it into sleep?!!!

I would like to play a movie on my iMac but to watch it on my LCD TV. How to disable iMac screen and not to put it into sleep. PLS have in mind that ctrl+shift+ eject does not work, it makes my iMac screen go black as well as the tv screen.So far, i have red many articles concerning this subject, but no one seems to have the right answer. I simply can´t believe that apple did not think of it, as it is nothing new ....
Thanks

My brother has eight cats, so your not along. Fortunetly his go outside.
I have been talking to the people over at macforums and they had some good thoughts. One guy suggested going analog and soldering in a rocker switch on the cable connecting a hub to the computer, turn off switch turns off keyboard and mouse.
I was prepared to try that but a great idea came along. Arch, you might be interested in this too. Buy a cheap (found one locally for $20) usb kvm switch that takes one usb keyboard and mouse and connects it to two pcs/macs and only connect one of the outs to my system. There is a button to switch between the two, so when I want to disable the keyboard and mouse, I just switch it to pc2, which is not connected to anything.
Cheap and easy solution. I wish I could of figured out how to do this with software, since there would be no money if it was freeware, but I guess you cant win them all.
Thanks everyone for chiming in!

Signing and Saving PDF

My Adobe isn't letting me add a signature, and the document that I am downloading from my school's website has signature not allowed under properties. Tried to convert to word and then back to a PDF to change properties but it is still not allowing signatures without echosign. My prof needs to add his own signature and does not want to do it through echosign. Trying to get the document signed and saved as a PDF then sent to him. Any suggestions?

Thank you for the answer and explanation. Unfortunately I am still not sure the best solution.

How to disable the maximize and minimize button of JDialog

How to disable the maximize and minimize button of JDialog. I have an application which has JDialog box, but in that i should not have maximize and minimize button.If any one come across this problem and got a solution please helpout me.

Btw, isn't it a little strange to ask thisquestion...
Actually, I thought it was meant to be sardonic...
Dialogs don't have those buttons, so the question
n should be to the OP how did he/she get them in the
first place? Cuz they aren't using JDialog to do it,
unless it's something to do with a specific look &
feel.I somehow missed that, good point :-)

How to disable the dashboard and spotlight for the latest Iion OS

How to disable the dashboard and sportlight function in the latest Mac OS?

to disable spotlight, open the terminal and type "sudo mdutil -a -i off" without the quotes. ( You will be prompted to enter your admin password.)
to disable dashboard:
Open Terminal, and then type this command, followed by the Return key:
defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean YES
This tells the system that you no longer wish to have Dashboard available. However, the Dashboard task is actually “owned” by the Dock, so to make your changes take effect, you need to restart the Dock. The easiest way to do that is to type this command into the Terminal (and press Return when done):
killall Dock
After the Dock restarts, hit F12 and you’ll see…nothing at all. If you run Activity Monitor, you also won’t find any Dashboard widgets in the list of tasks, even if you had several open when you ran the above command.
