Importing older Digital Signatures into an Electronic Document Mgmt System

I have Adobe PDF documents signed with digital signatures in 2002-03 that I need to import into an EMC Documentum repository without invalidating the signatures.  When I try pulling documents into the system, they are seen as "changed or modified" by the authentication software, and the signatures dissappear.  How do I get around this?

2002-2003 signatures were signed probably with Acrobat 5 or 6. Two questions:
1. If you open this PDF in Reader XI, does it validate the signatures as valid?
2. If you import into Documentum PDF signed with the latest Acrobat version (X or XI), does Documentum import then without errors?
If the answer to question 1 is "no" then there is something wrong with these PDFs.
I am not familiar with Documentum, so this is just a speculation.
My guess is that the answers to both questions are "yes". If so, then Documentum does not support the older PDF signature format (which is still in PDF 1.7 specification).
If the answer to question 1 is "yes" and to question 2 is "no", then perhaps Documentum does not support signed PDFs.
I am not familiar with Documentum, so this is just a speculation.

  • Is there some way to import image files directly into an open document?

    Is there some way of importing a series of image files, say jpegs, directly into an open document, rather than having to open all the image files and having to drag and drop each individual one into the open document? Specifically, I'm a dentist and I often get digital xray images emailed to me from other offices. But they come as 16 or 18 individual image files and I have to put them into a virtual "xray mount", so I can view them all at once, rather than having to open all the images and toggle among them. So I open a blank document in PS (CS4), then I navigate to the folder containing all the image files I received, select all of them and open them all. Back in PS, I now have to select each image tab and drag the image into the blank "mount" and close the image. That new image then becomes its own layer in the "mount" document. But I have to repeat this 18 times for each patient! I was thinking if there was a way to open the new "mount" document then select all the image files and somehow "import" all the image files directly into document - essentially "automate" the process - that'd save me BOATLOADS of time and aggravation! Anyone out there have any suggestions? Thanks alot!! Dr. G.

    Thanks, Curt! When u say "animate" do u mean File | Automate...? Inside Automate, I can't find "Make Frames from Layers"...if you do mean "Animate" I can't find that menu. Zeno replied with a BRILLIANT clarification:
    <<Yes, but after you've got all your images as layers in a new document you can simply Select->All Layers and then drag them all to your document in one fell swoop.>>
    I tried that and it works like a charm! I select all 20 layers in the new document that "stacking" creates and just drag them all onto the virtual "mount" document. That's it! Then I just move each of these layers around as I would otherwise...it's just 1 click and 1 drag/drop. Unless someone comes up with a way to actually "import" all the images directly into the "mount" document, I think this appears to be the most efficient route to follow.
    I really appreciate your guys' assistance! It's so great that you guys monitor the forum and help us out with our Photoshop problems! What an awesome program it is, right?
    Thx again!

  • Digital signatures for customer facing documents

    Hello,
    I am a pretty experienced user of Adobe TechComm Suite (FrameMaker, RoboHelp), but I've never needed to dig too deep into Acrobat, so I am a newbie when it comes to setting up digital signatures.
    I am using Acrobat Pro XI on Windows 7 professional, and the people who need to approve documents only have the free Adobe Reader. I don't have access to any sort of workflow system at the moment, and we aren't using a content management system. Adobe EchoSign is not suitable for our documents because of size restrictions and because 3rd-party cloud storage violates corporate policy.
    What I'd like to be able to do is this:
    Include a signatures page when I create a PDF of a document. Place the document at a shared network location (Windows network).
    Notify approvers (Outllok email) that they need to digitally sign a PDF at a shared network location.
    See the digital signatures and see that they all are valid.
    Send out the signed PDF to external customers, in a way that it doesn't show customers that the document includes a form, and doesn't ask for more signatures, but does confirm that the PDF has not been changed since it was signed. Customers must be able to print all or part of the PDF if they want to.
    I have a feeling that I may be missing some steps or some external components. Any advice on how to set this up would be welcome.
    Thanks very much,
    David

    What you want to do can be done with Acrobat, but it depends a bit on how many internal users will be needing to sign the documents. For Reader users (desktop versions on Windows and Mac) to digitally sign a document, it needs to be Reader-enabled with either Acrobat Pro (not Standard) or LiveCycle Reader Extensions. The latter is expensive server-based software.
    A signature field can be set up so that the document is locked to further changes once it is signed, but this involves the user selecting the option or you can pre-configure the document (signature field, specifically) with a bit of JavaScript so it will always be locked after signing.
    The external users will be able to validate the signature (with Acrobat/Reader) and print if you haven't restricted printing.

  • Digital Signature while approving a document in KM

    Dear all,
    We have a an approval enabled folder in KM. My question is, can we enable digital signature for documents in that folder?
    Scenario will be like this. I'm an approver. When I approve I should be allowed to digitally sign on the document.
    Is this possible in KM?
    We are on EP 7.0 Ehp1 SP04.

  • Trying to import older .mbox files into Apple mail

    I have been trying to import older .mbox files back into Apple mail over an hour.
    No matter what I use in the import window, nothing seems to work.
    If it imports it sends it to the mail downloads folder but nothing from that point on.
    I can read text in TextEdit but it's all running together.
    OS X v10.6.8 Snow Leopard

    I noticed on the left side way down past my last mail box folder ( long list) for the import .mbox files.
    Seems they were hidden !

  • Digital Signature -- Unlock signed off document

    Hello,
    We are implementing digital signature to BBP documentation. The signatures can be successfully triggered and documents can be signed off and status changed. When trying to unlock the signed off documents, in the document attribute window, the unlock button is however not available. Therefore we can never get a signed document re-opened. I wonder how we could configure to get the button visible?
    We'd appreciate any suggestions you may have to share with us. Many thanx!
    Regards, Li

    HI Jason,
    Thanks for the message. Yes the "document is locked" checkbox has been selected.
    What is the role you mentioned? I created a role with authorization objects C_SIGN and C_SIGN_BGR, but it seemed not to help.
    There is supposed to be a "document unlock" botton available in the document attribute, see a sample in the presentation (shown in slide 11, step 3).
    https://websmp110.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700002397472006E
    Now when I open the attribute of a signed document, the "document unlock" button is not available, I am wondering where in the configuration/role we should do more.
    Hopefully this helps you to understand my problem a bit more
    Kind regards,
    Li

  • Integrating Digital Signatures into J2EE Web App

    I have a requirement to add digital signature functionality to a J2EE web application. Our customers would like to press a �sign� button on a web page, be prompted to connect their hardware security token (e.g. USB device or smart card), and the signatures stored inside our system for later verification (e.g. in court).
    The main issue I can see is that when using hardware-based tokens the private key can never leave the device, so the device itself does the signing. Whereas our J2EE Web Application has all the code on the app server tier, and the data is located on the database (and in our architecture cannot be exported to client PCs for security reasons).
    Does anyone know of any solutions to this kind of requirement? Any vendor toolkits that allow this? From what I�ve read from researching this subject the pieces are all there but most web-based security solutions only implement application login authentication of one sort or another.

    Hi Tony,
    As of DIAdem 2012 there is no product feature that makes it easier to create a web front end to DIAdem.  You can host DIAdem with a terminal services approach such as Citrix, which will give you all of DIAdem's functionality in a web GUI.  You can also host DIAdem on a cloud server if that's where your data is.
    On final option is that LabVIEW offers a user programmable web server which can make calls to DIAdem via ActiveX.

  • How can i bring digital signature into biztalk.

    Hi All,
    Actually in my project i need to bring the data from sql but inthat data digital signature also there.
    If i add metadata of adapter then how biztalk will pick because it contains the digital signature.
    Regards,
    Raman

    Are you implying that the data in SQL is secured through a certificate (as in encrypted) or merely that Certificate Thumbprint is stored in the database.
    If it is the former (TDE for SQL) then your BizTalk Host Instance would need to have a certificate which you'd configure on the receive location to authenticate and get the data normally.
    If it is the later then you would use the data picked up through the metaadata/schema and read the field to get the signature.
    Regards.

  • Customisation steps for archiving document mgmt. system

    Hi,
    Please suggest the customisation required for the document management system.The object name for the doc is CV_DVS.
    What are the steps necessary to archive this document.
    Thanks & best regards,
    Goraksh Dhikale.

    hi,
    To call the archiving functions for document info records from the standard R/3 menu, choose
    Logistics _ Central functions _ Document management _ Environment _ Archiving.
    You can set a deletion flag for document info records that you no longer require for managing
    documents and their original application files. Archiving object CV_DVS enables you to archive
    these document info records. After the archiving run, you can delete the archived document info
    records.
    The document info records that you archive and delete with archiving object CV_DVS are
    identified by the following data:
    Document,Document type,Document part, Version
    When you use archiving object CV_DVS, you archive data from the following tables:
    Table    Description
    DRAD   Link between document and object
    DRAO   Originals for document
    DRAOZ  Additional files for original for document
    DRAP    Document log file
    DRAT     Document descriptions
    DRAW    Document info record
    DRAZ      Table for additional files for original
    The following table shows the functions that you can use for archiving object CV_DVS.
    Function Report Program
    Archive   DVSARCH1
    Delete    DVSARCH2
    Manage  DVSARCH3

  • How to import multiple XML files into one inDesign document without copy/paste ?

    I use InDesign CS6, and I have several XML files with the same structure. Only the data are different.
    I created  an Indesign layout with some tagged placeholder frames on merge mode, for automated layout.
    Today for each XML file I have to create a new InDesign document to import the XML. Everything works fine. Then in order to have all Indesign layouts one after the other into a single Indesign layout, I have to use the copy/paste function.
    I mean for example, copy the contents of all documents to the first one. Or add pages of other documents to the first one, then delete spaces between each page.
    So my question is the following:
    How to repeat this process without copy/paste function, knowing that the
    number of XML files could be unknown.
    Thank you very much for your answer.

    Yes, effectively I would like to catalogue the files into one collection so i can save as one PDF and Print as one.:)
    I know I could save each AI as a pdf them then merge the pdf's together in acrobat, but I have nearly 100 files so would feel more comfortable seeing them all together before print / saving.
    My concern is that if I insert them in Ai, will the file resolution reduce? and will the ai still be editable and would it update the indesign file?
    Thanks for the quick reply

  • Digital Signatures and editing signed documents

    Situation - A medical office wants to digitally sign a document after it has been edited (to make it a legal order) but have the form remain unlocked so it can be edited again.  They want to be able to accomplish this on a single instance of the form without using the server solution just a form designed in LiveCycle with Javascript powering the transactions.  Is this possible?

    You can edit a signed PDF document (assuming you are not using the field collection feature).  This will not "Invalidate" the signature, but it will change the status of the signature.
    I have attached two screen shots to illustrate...  To generate these, I signed a PDF, changed some data and re-validated the signature.
    ValidationStatus.gif shows the status of the actual signature.
    DocStatus.gif shows a "roll-up" status (meaning it checks all signatures on a doc and displays an overview) of the signed document.
    Regards
    Steve
