Livecycle & Reader 8, digital signatures problem

Hello,
I created a pdf document including digital signature field in livecycle. When saving and opening the document in acrobat 8 pro signing works fine, i.e. I click the signing field and it prompts for digital signature ID & password.
But, when I click the field in Reader 8 (not pro version), nothing happens. It doesn't prompt for digital signature ID.
I clearly set the version limit in livecycle to be reader 7 and upwards (not pro versions).

you need to "enable usage rights in Adobe Reader.." using Acrobat 8 before Reader can sign.

  • LiveCycle 8.0 Digital Signature shows Orange Flag ONLY IF Blank Form Has Submit or Email Button

    My subject line says it all. After a lot of experimenting, including reinstalling Adobe Designer Standard 8.0, I have found that, in Adobe LiveCycle 8.0.1291.1.339988, my drag-and-dropped Document Signature Field will include a clickable orange flag ONLY IF the blank form I started with includes an E-mail button or Submit button. Strange but true. If you then delete these buttons, the orange clickable flag still appears fine.
    Try it...
    In Adobe Designer Standard 8.0 LiveCycle:
    1. File > New.
    2. Select Use a blank form, Next.
    3. Next.
    4. In Form Return Setup dialog box, DEselect Add an Email button and DEselect Add a print button (so that both are NOT checkmarked).
    5. Click Finish.
    6. Drag a Document Signature Field to the blank page.
    7. Click PDF Review tab. Note that no orange clickable flag appears for the user then to be able to use for entering a digital signature.
    Close the page.
    Try a variation now that will work (yielding an orange clickable flag):
    1. File > New.
    2. Select Use a blank form, Next.
    3. Next.
    4. In Form Return Setup dialog box, SELECT either the Add an Email button OR the Add a print button (so that either IS checkmarked).
    5. Click Finish.
    6. Drag a Document Signature Field to the blank page.
    7. Click PDF Review tab. Note that an orange clickable flag DOES appear this time for the user then to be able to use for entering a digital signature.
    8. For further test, click the Design View tab and now DELETE the displayed button.
    9. Click PDF Review. The flag is still there.
    BOTTOM LINE: It at least looks like it's not just "Distribute forms" that requires that you have a button at Blank Form creation time. Also "Digital Signature" functionality requires that you display a button at Blank Form creation time -- which you can then delete.
    A bug? Or do I have some major concept wrong -- maybe I'm mis-interpreting the whole Digital Signature concept and process?

    Is this in the wrong forum?  The problem I am having is with Acrobat's Distribution feature.

  • Digital Signature problem : Adobe forms

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing one issue in Adobe forms while implementing Digital Signature in one of the Custom Adobe form. I am following some steps as mentioned in the below link
    <link to blocked site removed by moderator>
    The problem is when I execute my Adobe form I am not getting SIGN button in my generated form as mentioned in the link.
    I am using Adobe Live cycle designer 8.2 and Adobe reader 9.
    Please help me out on this since I am new to Adobe forms as well.
    Thanks

    Moderator message: this is the wrong forum, please have a look in the forum for "SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe".
    Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Oct 21, 2011 1:56 PM

    Apart from the above question can anybody guide me whether do we need Adobe Acrobat instead of Adobe reader to implement  Digital Signature in Adobe form.
    Looking forward towards some useful suggestions!!

  • SAPGENPSE Conversion into PSE File for Digital Signature problem

    Hello,
    Would anyone help me with this problem
    I am trying to create a PSE file for implementing the Digital Signature in a Report following the Note 1300880 . When I try to create the PSE FILE.
    Use the SAPGENPSE tool to import the file in PCKS#12 format using the command import_p12 as follows:
    rem convert pkcs12 file to pse
    sapgenpse import_p12 -p CSD_01.pse -x a0123456789 -z a0123456789 CSD_01.p12
    when I run the command I get this error:
    C:\SAPGENPSE\ntintel>sapgenpse import_p12 -p CSD_01.pse -x a0123456789 -z a01234
    56789 CSD_01.p12
    import_p12: Can't create PSE.
    ERROR in af_create: (4352/0x1100) could not flush : "SW-PSE"

    C:\SAPGENPSE\ntintel>
    I would appreciate any help.

    Hi
    I solved my Issue.  SAPGENPSE failed with only  import_p12  error.
    I had misspelt , fat fingers.
    In AIX I ran     env
    Check to see    SECUDIR=/usr/sap/SID/DVEMBS03/sec  
    I had a spelling mistake and saw the wrong entry.
    To set this up, do this in your Instance profile or right before you run the sapgenpse
    setenv SECURDIR /usr/sap/FSB/DVEMBS03/sec     Insert your right SID of course.
    Also just run     sapgenpse  and it will tell you if you have set the environment correctly..
    Worked like a charm, certificate created.

  • Livecycle 8.0 multiple signatures problems

    Hi,
    When I add 2 digital signatures to same pdf document and sign them, the first signature reports
    "The revision of the document that was covered by this signature has not been altered; however there have been subsequent changes to the document".
    The signature changes from green "check" mark to green "check" mark and a yellow warning marker.
    I understand that the document has been changed when adding another signature, but how do I set the preference to allow 2 digital signatures without the warnings at the first signature!?

    You are right. The addition of a second signature does change the document since it was first signed, resulting in the Yellow Triangle shown in the appearance of the first signature.
    If you Certify the document before any signatures are added then you can have consecutive signatures in that document that retain their valid "green check mark" state.

  • Adobe Reader v9 & Digital Signatures

    I have some pdf forms, created in Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8, that have digital signature fields. We recently upgraded to Adobe Reader v9. A user completes the form & digitally signs it, then emails it to a supervisor. Since the upgrade to v9 when the recipient views the form they get a message that the digital signature are not verified. Any advice?
    We're running on Windows XP.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Reading the  Digital Signature No.

    Hi,
    I have a Digital Signature for a Lot, via QA13 I can see the digital Signature , but how can I read the data. In the Structure of the table TC71 is not a connection to the Lot.
    The table TC78 is empty.
    Any Ideas.
    Regards Ralf Rasch

    the  answer is: Read with the FM  SIGN_READ  or directly via Table TC73

  • 2011 email router digital signature problem

    Hi,
    We're running 2011 on premise with the email router feeding a queue for service items.
    We've recently seen a number of emails that hit the mail box but don't ever get processed by the email router. There are no errors in the event logs that we can see, it just seems to ignore them.
    What we are noticing though is that the emails that get missed have digital signatures on them.
    Has anyone come across this before? There doesn't appear to be anything about this is any of the documentation that we can see.
    I've searched high and low for any information on this but I've drawn a blank everywhere.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    my guess is that it could be due to email is not send directly to primary SMTP which is configured in email router for your queue, it could be possible this email is send to other alias and if this is the case CRM ignores those email.
    for e.g. here is how you mail box is set up
            [email protected]  (mail box, primary SMTP, configured as queue in CRM to send recieve mail )
            [email protected] (alias for above mailbox)
    so if email is send to "[email protected]" it will be received in outlook mail box but CRM will not pick it as it does not have any matching queue set up for this.

  • Digital Signature problem with 8.2.3

    In my group, some associates have Adobe Professoinal 8.1.3 (me included) and others have 8.2.3.  I am having people digitally sign documents using their PKI token given to us by the company.  When digitally signing, I am still able to write in my own reason in the reason drop-down, but the users with 8.2.3 are unable to do so.  Ultimately, I have 2 questions:
    1)  How can I enable those users of 8.2.3 to write in their own reasons?
    2)  How can I clean up that drop-down list and delete reasons that I don't use at all or stopped using?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Here is how to enable the Reason field to show on the Sign dialog:
    Select the Edit > Preferences menu item (Windows), or the Acrobat > Preferences menu item (Mac)
    Select Security from the Categories list box
    Click the Advanced Preferences button on the Security Preferences panel
    Select the Creation tab on the Digital Signatures Advanced Preferences dialog
    Select the Show reasons when signing checkbox. I would also highly recommend you select the Include signature's revocation status when signing checkbox as well.
    Click the OK button on the Digital Signatures Advanced Preferences dialog
    Click the OK button on the Preferences dialog
    The Reasons are stored in the registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\<version>\Security\cPubSec\cReasons on Windows on in the corresponding location in the plist file in the users Preferences folder on the Mac.

  • How do I control the certificate chain construction performed by Acrobat Reader during digital signature validation?

    I work in the federal government where there are many certificate authorities and cross certified certificate authorities. Acrobat Reader is building hundreds of certificate chains in attempting to find a trusted root for the signers certificate. It is taking 4 minutes to validate the signature!
    The image is the 15th screen shot showing three chains per screen shot. The window elevator has barely moved!

    I am now using Adobe Acrobat Reader 11. Signature validation is much better! Perhaps 10 seconds. The only issue I see that the detail pages have misleading messages. The Signature Properties window has no complaints about the signature but the Show Signer's Certificate page still complains about not valid trust anchor.

    Do not use doubles or floats for arithmetic mod n, ever! Even for small examples, the BigInteger class is very easy to use. You'll be using the add, subtract, etc. methods, but also the mod, modPow, and modInverse methods. So, your code might start out looking like this:
    java.math.BigInteger;
    class Key
        public static void main (String [] args)
            String sm="I AM A SUDENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE";
            BigInteger q = BigInteger.valueOf(13);
            System.out.println("Prime number q=" + q);
            // ...and so on...
    }

  • Digital Signature Problems

    I have a pdf with multiple signature fields. When somebody signs it in 9.x everything is fine, but when somebody signs it in a version earlier than 9.0 it does not work. The signature fields do not even show up. Somebody signed the pdf in 8.x and sent it back to me. I opened in 9.x, and I could not see the signature fields. Is there a compability issue between these versions. The pdf contains javascript and is a dynamic pdf if that matters. Thanks in advance.
