Non-Digital Signature on PDF Form

I've created a form and have a space where a signature is needed.  I'd like to use the signature field, but when my audience tested it the box was blank and did not allow them to upload a digital signature or go through the adobe security signature process (which it did for me).  This could be because they are only looking at it in Reader.  Nonetheless, here's my question:
Is there a way to create a signature field where they can either upload their own electronic signature (like from a .jpg file) or let them sign it with a different font?
Or do I just leave the signature field off, let them print it and hard sign the form, scan it and email it back?
Help!

Recent versions of Acrobat can use digital certificates to sign PDF forms with a digital signature field.
Only Reader version XI can use a digital certificate to sign a PDF form with a digital signature field only if the form does not have Extended Reader Rights. Older versions or Reader cannot sign with a digital certificate.
If you need this or all versions or Reader you either need to use Echosign or other signing service or purchase a LIveCycle Server product to apply the special right for digital certificate signing. But this will be costly.

  • Digital Signature Interactive PDF form

    Hi
    I am Trying to make an Interactive PDF form with a functionality to Display and hide Specific Fields Using a Button
    Is It possible to Digitally Sign such a PDF
    If it is
    Will the signature be removed once i Activate the Interactive Functionality from the form of Display\Hide a field  ?

    To further elaborate:
    There is some general Java documentation in the SAP library on digitally signing a document with SSF:-
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a4/d0201854fb6a4cb9545892b49d4851/content.htm
    Questions though:
    (1) If I sign with the SSF classes will this then prevent the popup "Uncertified document" appearing in ACROBAT reader? The PDFs that the UI interactive form produces are not pure XML streams are they? As far as I can ascertain SSF is not suitable for signing PDFs!
    (2) At which event would one sign the pdfSource context node for an interactive form created in the web dynpro environment? At method WDoInit of the PDF view the pdfSource context node is still null.
    Thanks again,
    Jonathan

  • How to send digital signature from pdf form to fdf file?

    Hi...
    I already create the pdf form that contain digital signature field using ACROBAT XPRO...and now i would like to send data from pdf form to fdf file.I already manage to send data from other field except the digital signature.How to send the signature digital value to FDF file so that i can display it back to PDF file next time?Can anyone help me...i really need help right now...

    hi....
    thanks for replying..

    It did work with earlier versions that did not perform a full save when a signature was applied. Since Acrobat/Reader now do a Save As when a signature is applied, there are no incremental saves to include in the FDF. This can still be useful for forms that haven't been signed, oddly enough, but since you cannot control whether the user performs a full save, it shouldn't be relied on for general use. The big problem is extracting the appended saves from the FDF so you can concatenate it to original document. The FDF Toolkit is the only thing I'm aware of that helps with this.
    as u said that,Fdf tool kits can help to solve my problem.Can u send me the sample of code using java so that i can get the value using Fdf Tool kits?
    Thanks..

  • Digital Signature on PDF

    Hi Folks!
    I'd like to digitally sign a PDF document out of an ABAP program or class, just to ensure that the document was not modified by anyone.
    In my program I hold the PDF as a binary stream in a XSTRING variable. I convert it into a binary table and use the function module 'SSF_KRN_SIGN_BY_AS' to sign this binary stream. In general, this is working fine (validating it with function module 'SSF_KRN_VERIFY' is successful).
    But if I open the generated file with Acrobat Reader, no signature is found.
    Obviously it does not work to sign the binary directly, as I did.
    How can I create a digital signature on PDFs using ABAP? Do I have to convert it into ASCII or so before? Or: How must a signature be attached to a PDF file?
    Our release is 620. Every little hint is appreciated.
    Regards,
    Torsten

  • ADOBE Form - How to include digital signatures in adobe forms?

    Hi all,
    Can any one tell me the procedure for including a digital signature in adobe form?
    Thanks,
    Vineel.

    Hi,
    If you have a third party software which captures the signatures (Ex: ePad), then you can have that integrated to SAP where all the signatures get stored as in SE78. From here you can insert directly in Adobe Form using Graphic Content method in an image field. Hope this is helpful for you.

  • How i add digital signature in interactive form

    Hi gurus,
    I want to upload an Digital Signature in Adobe forms. Could any body tell me the procedures please help me out.
    Thank you,
    pawan

    Hi Pawan,
    Inorder to make use of Digital Signatures in forms, you have to first configure the ADS based on SSL and not Basic Authentication. Refer to the ADS Configuration guide for the same.
    After the configuration using SSL as the security mode, you need to place a signature field when designing the Adobe form.
    In addition you need to create a signature in Adobe Reader(if used to display the form) which you can use to sign the document at runtime.
    Hope this helps.

  • Turn off "Verifying all signatures" when digitally signing a pdf form?

    Hey All!
    I have a pdf form (created with Acrobat X) with muliple digital signatures fields. Any time you sign a field, Adobe verifies all other signed signatures fields within the document.
    So the more signature fields allready been signed, the longer it takes to place a new digital signature due to the adobe verifying setting mentioned above.
    I have allready turned off "Verify signatures when the document is opened" in the security preferences, but I couldn't find a place to turn it off when signing a document.
    I am just thinking, whoever designed the Acrobat/Adobe program must have left an option to disable those security features...so I even looked in Adobe policy within windows
    registry, but I couldn't find anything either.
    It's very frustrating - at the end of the form it takes up to 20 minutes to place a signature.
    Any ideas and thoughts are more the welcome!!
    Thanks

    Sir, thank you for the quick response!
    No, It's a 22-pages form with 25 different signatures using PKI.

  • Adding a digital signature to a form

    Hi all,
    I'm new adobe designer and have been tasked with creating an on-line registration form. So far I have been able to add all the fields and such for users to enter their information.
    I have read through the forums and found out how to add little bits of javascript and stuff to the forms too.
    At the moment I have a four page form with stacks of questions.
    There is a question I have on there that is a check box with the usual "I accept the terms, blah, blah" on it and I need that field to act as a digital signature, or if not that, apply a signature to the form when the submit button is hit.
    At the moment I have regular button as the submit button as I needed to be able to change the body and subject of the email at run-time and could only get it to work through javascript at run-time.
    If anyone knows how to get this to work, I'd appreciate the help as I have no idea what I'm doing!
    Cheers,
    Dave

    Hi,
    It depends on where you placed the script, probably best place is the exit event.
    if (this.rawValue != null || this.rawValue != "")
         this.access = "readOnly";
    else
         this.access = "open";
    This will only lock the field that the script is inside.
    You should check out Paul's example LockAllFields, which contains a function in a script object. While Paul calls this from a click event in a button, you could call it fromthe exit event of the particular text field.
