How to enable place a signaure feature

I have a PDF form and I want people who view the form and enter data to also be able to use the Place a Signature feature to sign the form.  I created the form from a base PDF and made some minor edits to fields (date formatting, calculating a total).  I added the extended PDF features.  But when I open the form in reader, I still get the warning that says users can not add text or place a signature on the form because of the security settings.  I am using Acrobat 9 Pro to create the form.  Let me answer a few more questions based on what I have already read...
I do not want to use passwords in any way.  I do not need to protect the form in any way.
I do not want to explore digitial signatures.  If I can't get this to work, people will just print the form and sign with a pen.
I am sure I have the extended features becuase when I open the file again in Acrobat Pro 9 and try to add the extended features, I get a message that tells me this is already done.
I want to create a form that when opened in reader has the Place a Signature item enabled.  Please provide precise step-by-step instructions.
Thanks.

I was just sent another PDF with a signature field.  The creator showed me in Acrobat pro, he double clicks the signature field, and up comes a dialog box with a graphic of his signature.  He clicks a button that places the graphic of his signature on the form.  He then saves it to his local disk. 
We need to be able to create a PDF in Pro that a user can open up on Reader and do this exact same thing.  They need to open the document in Reader, click or double click the signature field, insert a graphic of their signature, and then save the form to local disk so it can be sent or printed.
I assume for this to work, the creator of the PDF has to do something to the form.  And the person viewing the form in Reader has to do something to their ®eader setup to set up the signature. Can you provide these steps for me?
Thanks.

  • T440s: How to enable the Windows eDrive feature?

    I would like to enable the eDrive feature on my T440s to encrypt my hard drive. How can I do this?
    In order to do so,I enabled "OS optimized defaults" in the bios settingsLoaded them and saved themDid a clean install of Windows 8.1 and removed all partitions during this processInstalled all Lenovo driversInstalled all Windows updatesTried to turn on bit lockerAccording to [1] "If everything is eDrive compliant you won’t be asked whether or you want to encrypt all or part of the drive". However, I am asked whether I want to encrypt all or part of the drive!! So my questions is, what is wrong? How can I enable the eDrive feature? [1] http://www.anandtech.com/show/6891/

    lax20531
    This process below worked for me to enable the eDrive and configure HW-mode BitLocker.  Would you please try it and let me know if it works for you?  If you have any questions about these steps, let me know.
    EDIT 1/9/2014 - these steps still may not work and should be ignored for now.
    Backup your personal data, because we are getting ready to wipe the SSD to enable the eDrive function
    Create the USB Recovery Drive
    Boot the USB Recovery Drive
    Select your language and keyboard layout, as prompted
    click on "Troubleshoot"
    click on "Reset your PC"
    click on "Next", and the target operating system, as prompted
    At the screen about "Do you want to repartition the drives on your PC?", click on "Yes, repartition the drives"  <-- IMPORTANT because eDrive is only enabled when the partitions are recreated.
    Click on "Just remove my files"
    Click on "Reset"
    The PC will be restored with the contents of the USB Recovery Drive.  This will take several minutes, and the PC will reboot itself.  When the process is complete, you will be at the Win8 setup screen "Region and Language", just like when you unboxed your PC and booted it for the first time.
    Go through Win8 setup, connect to network, create your account, etc
    Open Device Manager
    Expand the category "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers"
    Double-click on "Intel 8 Series Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller"
    Click on the "Driver" tab
    Click on "Update Driver"
    Click on "Browse my computer for driver software"
    Click on "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
    Click on "Standard SATA ACHI Controller" and then click on "Next"  <-- IMPORTANT since eDrive won't work with the Intel driver.  You must use the Microsoft standard driver instead.
    Click on "Close", then click on "Close" again.  Reboot as prompted.
    Open Control Panel -> System and Security -> Windows Update -> Check for Updates
    Download and install all available Important and Optional updates  <-- IMPORTANT because Win8 itself has some bug about BitLocker.  It is fixed in one of the updates, but I'm not sure which one.
    Repeat steps 23 and 24 until no more Windows Updates are available
    Open Control Panel -> System and Security -> BitLocker Drive Encryption
    Click on "Turn on BitLocker"
    Save the recovery key as prompted, then click "Next".  If you saved the recovery key on a USB drive, be sure to remove the USB drive before continuing.
    Click on "Continue" to run the the BitLocker system check
    Reboot as prompted
    BitLocker should now be running the HW mode
    To confirm it:  open a command prompt as administrator, then run "manage-bde.exe -status".  The Encryption Method should be listed as "Hardware Encryption"
     

  • How to enable Firefox 'new tab' feature.

    So I ended up downloading something and it changed my 'new tab' look. Before it was Firefox's feature of showing the thumbnails for my most visited sites and I had all of my school work shortcuts pinned on there and i want it back! I can only find advice on how to disable it but not to enable it or turn it back on. Please help. I want this feature back! Thanks in advance :(

    hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware on your pc.
    please go to the firefox ''menu ≡ > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc).
    also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.
    finally, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • Before the recent updates to Firefox, clicking on the back button always brought me back to the same place on the page where I had been, but now it brings me to the top of the page. How do I restore the previous feature?

    Before the recent updates to Firefox, when I would go to another page in the same window and then clickon the back button, Firefox used to bring me back to the same place on the page where I had been, but now it brings me to the top of the page, meaning that I have to laboriously scroll down to the old place. How do I restore the previous feature?

    That change was made in Firefox 4, 6 months ago.
    Click-hold the unified Back / Forward button <br />
    or <br />
    right-click it to get the Back / Forward history for that tab.
    Or install this extension to get the old "drop-marker" button restored. <br />

  • How to enable WebScan feature in LaserJet Pro MFP M126nw Printer

    I have installed a new LaserJet Pro MFP M126nw printer with wireless configured. The IP Address is 192.168.0.21. I visit http://192.168.0.21 through browser. I don't see Print/Copy/WebScan options there. I can see rest of the configuration tabs.

    Hi,
    The Webscan feature is not available on laser printers, it is only available on Inkjet printers.

    Shovan

    Hi Shovan,
    build number 86804.20 corresponds to J2EE engine patch 26, see SAP note 635453. This does not definitely mark what version your KMC is. For this please look under System Adminstration -- Support -- Support Desk -- Version -- Version History for ContentManagement_Collaboration.
    > Is it a kind of patch issue?
    At least this is something between possible and probable... I would advise to patch yur whole installation, and if the bug hasn't gone, you still can open an OSS message. If you would open it know, it would be quite probable that SAP would answer "Patch it!"
    Hope it helps

    If you are listening to stereo content like MP3's or CD's and you would like the sound to be played over your surround sound speaker system, you can enable CMSS 3D on your X-Fi card. If you are playing computer games, the X-Fi's Virtual 3D via CMSS gives a highly realistic surround sound over headphones.
    It is important to remember that if you do wish to play a 5. encoded file like Dolby or DTS soundtracks, you will need to turn CMSS off. Otherwise you might not receive each discreet channel.

    Hi All,
    Is there any way available to enable comments into pdf files through java. I have a Adobe Reader 9 and also I want put some comments into pdf file, but the reader is not allowed to place a comment into pdf file before enabling the Comments into pdf. After enabling the comments in pdf file then only we can place the comments and we can the pdf file with comments.
    Is there any way available to enable comments into pdf file to view acrobat reader.
    Thanks in advance.

    The end user who uses the web application has Acrobat installed in their mahcine needs it only for the purpose of enabling comments in pdf. If this task of enabling comments in pdf is done through my application there is no need for acrobat in such user's machine which was requested as a cost cuttnig measure.
    For this purpose, i need to know about how to enable comments in pdf through java api.
    I have used itext java api for other pdf related manipulation in java. But it does not have feature as per the requirement posted above. Can any body suggest relevant java api to achieve the task requested?
