PDF and timestamp

Currently we are trying to sign and add timestamp token to PDF documents. The problem is that the TSA (ncipher DSE 200) response is not valid,
at least Adobe thinks so. We have analyzed ASN.1 response from working TSA (also ncipher DSE 200) and non-working TSA. There are
differences in TSTInfo, returned certificates (non-working TSA response contains CRLs, etc.) and OIDs. We tried to eliminate differences but with
no success as some parts can not be modified directly, for example TSTInfo as the structure is signed.
Is there any way (tools, code or etc) to identify the problem in TSA response? How can logs be extracted from Adobe ppklite?

Thanks for valuable information, indeed RFC 3161 requirements are not fulfilled. We will contact timestamp authority and try to solve this issue.
Here is one more observation, this is not a problem as such changes we made are illegal; this just 'a thing' related to ppklite we stumbled upon.
If PDF file is signed + timestamped and just before moving timestamp data to unsigned attribute the timestamp is modified (in this case second certificate checksum is removed from SignerInfo/signedAttributes), Acrobat Reader shows that signature is valid, but with Signature Properties -> Date/Time -> Show Certificate it is possible to crash Acrobat Reader (9.1.3) on Win and Mac platforms.

How to verify PKCS#7 signature and timestamp present in PDF

Hi,
I have certified the PDF and embedded the digital signature with timestamp using iText and Bouncy Castle API's. Can anybody tells me that how to verify the PKCS#7 digital signature, certificate chain and timestamp present in the PDF?
thanks
Gurpreet Singh

I think you're pretty much on your own for this. You can probably eliminate
some files based on exstension. For the rest you might want to read the
first 1K and check whether it's all ASCII and whether the first line looks like
a mail header line (e.g., starts with an alpha character and contains a colon).

PDF signature timestamp problem

Hi, sorry if this post is slightly offtopic.
We are trying to sign and timestamp pdf documents in java (using Apache PDFBox) and we are stuck with a problem for more than a week. The signature itself is good, Adobe Reader can validate it succesfully (after adding our self signed test root certificate to trusted certificates). The problem is with the timestamp. Adobe Reader says that the signature is timestamped, but the timestamp could not be verified. If I look at the Date/Time tab on the Signature Properties window the Timestamp Authority field says Not available. Older versions of Adobe Reader 9 displayed the Show Certificate button for the Timestamp Authority as enabled, and if I clicked it, the Reader crashed. In newer Reader 9 versions and in Reader X the button is disabled. It seems Reader recognises the timestamp but can't extract the TSA certificate.
However if I sign the pdf with Acrobat X Pro or with iText (using the same private key and the same TSA) everything is perfect, the timestamp is validated, Timestamp Authority field shows the correct value, TSA certifiicate is OK.
I analyzed the signatures and the timestamp tokens, but I could not find any significant difference between the good and wrong ones.
I wanted to attach a working and a non-working sample but I didn't find how to do that.
Could someone please give us some advice about what could cause something like this?
Can Reader log the signature parsing/validating process to view what's wrong?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I had the same problem with the pdf signature timestamp…..
The thing I was doing wrong was the SHA-1 hash sent to the timestamp server, more precisely I was sending the whole signature SHA-1 hash when I suppose to send the SHA-1 hash of the RSA encrypted hash of the digital signature (I think that in your case is the 256 hash starting from 1783).
Hope this helps you,

Learn HTML. There is a nice tutorial at w3schools.com and a good specification at w3.org.

Dynamic CRM 2013 Online how to execute Report, generate PDF and email

Dear All,
I am using Dynamic CRM 2013 online. For quote, I have workflow and Dialogue processes for review process. On approval, I want the system to generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer.
Better I would like, When approver, clicks on the approve button, the system should auto generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer, without any further input from the user. If its not possible, I may have to put button on
quote form.
I am using the attached code, but facing various issues.
1. Under prepare the SOAP Message coding part, I am not sure what should be the below URL for CRM 2013 Online?
xHReq.Open("POST", "/mscrmservices/2007/CrmService.asmx", false);
2. What should be the emailid here? Is it Recepient Contact id(Guid) ?
var emailid = resultXml.selectSingleNode("//CreateResult").nodeTypedValue;
alert("emailid" + emailid.toString());
3. Using this code, not able to create Entity for "ActivityMimeAttachment", I am getting newEntity as undefined.
Below is the code I am using. Please check and help me out, where I am going wrong. Let me know if any better way to implement it. At present, I have put one button on quote form, on click event, below code will get executed.

HELP: I need to link a PDF within PDF and be able to open and return to original PDF

I have a master PDF and have attached 7 supplemental PDF documents. I created "click here" icons and used the steps below so that the linked document would open. The problem is, once I open the supplemental PDF, it closes the original master. I would like to close the linked document and return to the master view. Is there a way to do this?
Or is there a way to do this from InDesign? I created master file in InDesign and exported as an Interactive PDF. I created the buttons and linked them to external files. This works great as long as the master PDF and the links are all in one file, but that is a pain to send to a viewer. Ideally, I want to be able to send the master PDF to a viewer and not have to send a links folder. Is there a way to embed the supplemental PDFs into the master so that they are all combined into one file AND have the ability to use buttons to call up one of the attachments, close, and return to the original?
Thanks in advance!!

I want to do the same thing that the original poster of this question wants to do. I haven't worked extensively with Acrobat so am finding by trial and error the several ways PDFs within PDFs can be accomplished. I'm using a trial version of Acrobat Pro X and have experimented with three options.
1 - I've created a Portfolio and am impressed with what that can do, though I think it may be "overkill" for the current size of my project.
2 - I've also tried creating this project as an index but discovered that the links I'd created in the original docs didn't work when I moved the index and its contents (keeping the file structure the same). I presume this means the links are absolute? I also don't understand how it is that users search a .pdx file, or how to present what I want to be the original opening PDF of indexed docs.
3 - I've also thought to create one PDF with attached PDFs, so I'd like to have you expand on your comment about creating a master document and attaching documents to it.
The specifics of my project are these: I have created a master directory that contains approximately 120 links. Most of the links are repeated three times (users can find in the directory the item they need in three different ways: alphabetically, by application, or by module; hence each item listed once in each of three categories). I want to make that directory the "master" PDF that users open first, and then locate within that PDF the 5-8 PDF documents that contain all of the places to which the directory links. I want the "master" directory to be self-contained and completely "portable" as far as all of the documents and links are concerned so that when I make the PDF available from our website users can open the master from there or copy it and have all of the docs they need with all of the links intact. I think I prefer that all docs open in new windows, since returning to the original doesn't seem very user friendly in Acrobat (I like the tabs feature in FoxIt when multiple PDFs are open...).
I'd like an opinion about the best way to accomplish what I need to do, and am also wondering whether there are other options I am unaware of. BTW, the reason we've decided to document this whole project in PDFs rather than HTML is because this project contains a big number of tables, which do not look consistent across various browsers (i.e., most of our tables look fine in IE and Firefox, but awful in Google Chrome...). In researching my issue on the Acrobat Windows forum I see that rendering tables in Acrobat is also an issue that seems to be unresolved.
Thank you!

How can I copy text from PDF and include the source filename in the pasted selection?

I'm a biologist and frequently cut-and-paste notes from PDFs of scientific articles. I name all of the PDF articles with their PubMed ID, a short unique identifier (e.g. 19397482.pdf). When I take notes, I will select a few sentences from the PDF and then paste them into a text editor for later reference.
Can anyone suggest a method or script that would allow me to paste the copied text with the Pubmed filename included in a single action? I would want the pasted output it to look something like this, with the filename appended to the end:
Of the transcripts that were significantly different, there was a greater number of transcripts that were down-regulated in the IVC embryos (380) than the number of transcripts that were up-regulated (208). [20668257.pdf]
This would really help me to properly cite information sources during the writing process. I know there are bibliography managers that might be able to do something like this, but I prefer to read the PDF articles directly in Preview and select the text as I am reading.
Thanks very much for any suggestions / ideas.
jjw

To copy and paste in a single action:
tell application "Preview" to activate
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Preview"
    -- Get the PubMed ID:
    get the title of the front window
    set thePubMedID to word 1 of result
    -- Copy the selected text to the clipboard:
    keystroke "c" using {command down} -- ⌘C
    delay 0.25 -- adjust if necessary
    -- Add the PubMed ID to the contents of the clipboard:
    set theNotes to the clipboard
    set the clipboard to (theNotes & space & "[" & thePubMedID & ".pdf]")
end tell
tell application "Notational Velocity" to activate
tell application "System Events"
    -- Paste the contents of the clipboard to the end of the Notational Velocity document
    key code 125 using command down -- ⌘↓
    keystroke return & return
    keystroke "v" using {command down} -- ⌘V
end tell

I have created a PDF and password protected it for view. However, when reading the PDF in Adobe Reader app on the iPad the commenting and annotation options are not available. Is there a way to allow commenting and annotation in the app while password protecting the document?

Is there a setting that needs to be set to allow the annotation features? I set password protection to open and then password for editing and set it to Any except page extraction, but it still did not give the annotation option

How can I digitalize a document text in PDF and export it to WORD?

If you already have a PDF document, ExportPDF can help you with this task. https://www.acrobat.com/exportpdf/en/convert-pdf-to-word.html
On the other hand, if you have a physical document, you'll need to scan it into a PDF document first.
Depending on what you need to do you may require different tools & services, so please help us out with more details.

Output same Deski report as PDF and XLS

Hello,
will it be possible to generate (not schedule) a Deski - Report using Java SDK ?
desired workflow:
- generate/refresh the report to hold new data (User specific, Local specific)
- output this report in Formats PDF and XLS
- store the output - reports in Users inbox
The goal is to generate the report only once and output the same twice - as pdf and as xls.
As far as i saw in scheduling a report, it is only possible to produce one output (pdf or xls), if we need both, we have to schedule twice. And therefor we will have to generate the same report twice.
I found somthing like
binaryView = (BinaryView)documentInstance.getView(OutputFormatType.XLS);
binaryView = (BinaryView)documentInstance.getView(OutputFormatType.PDF);
in RBean for Webi - reports.
Looking forward for any idea.
Thanks in advance.
Johannes

If you're on XI 3.x, then you can specify multi-format exports using Publications.
Otherwise, you'd need to export to a file using REBean SDK, then Enterprise SDK to create a new InfoObject for that artifact.

Saving report as PDF and text file

Currently, I saved my report as PDF. It opens in Acrobat reader automatically when the report is executed. Is there a way for me to save it as PDF and as a text file at the same time? (without having to open the file in Acrobat reader and saving it)

You can add your PDF and TEXT file formats to a distribution list (Instead of GENERATE REPORT TO A FILE). To do this:
1. Go to your Object Navigator and highlight your report.
2. Right click on your report. Select Property Palette.
3. Select Distribution
4. You can add of of the formats that you want to print or save to the report to.
5. You will have to add Distribution Id (any number starting with 1) where you want the file to be saved (c:\my_reports\inventory.pdf), the type of file: PDF and how many copies you want: 2
6. Click OK after finishing...
To make it work ... You would highlight your report from your Object Navigator and then choose FILE-DISTRIBUTE and this will save it to all the files your specified and/or printer.

Converting report to PDF and mailing

Hi every one,
I've gone through various threads and i'm aware of the Functional module's used to
convert the report to pdf and mail it back.Like CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF, CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF and for mailing we have SEND_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1.
I've worked with this but my problem is i'm not able to convet the report output to pdf.When i'm doing this i'm getting the output of my functional module converted to pdf like the number of header and item records available for the given data in the selection screen.
Since all the threads i've gone through is converting the single internal table which has the output to pdf.
But i've got the REUSE_ALV_HIERSQL_LIST_DISPLAY, hierarchial report which as known has got two internal tables.How to the same to this kind of report....More over is it possible to convert report to pdf in online without transfering it to spool and getting the spool id to convert it to pdf.........
Any help or suggestions will surely be rewarded......
Thanks in Advance.....

Here is the complete code for you;
It Converts spool request into PDF document and emails it.
