Questions about digital signatures

We have about 100 people in our organization all using Acrobat X Pro. We currently sign PDFs (only used internally--we don't sign things to be sent out to customers, vendors, etc.) using the self-signed, self-generated PKS#12 option. This has worked well for us in the past, but we find ourselves having to backup each user's signature in case it gets lost, deleted, hard drive crashes, etc. Is there a more central way to sign documents so our users don't generate their own signatures, email them to other users, etc.? We'd like to use something that can incorporate the users' domain credentials so they don't have to remember a separate password. We're on a 2008 R2 domain. Thanks!

Eline,
Yes, you can connect the wireless headphone to the player. Infact you can connect it to any stereo devices with the audio transmitter as long it's using a 3.5mm minijack. It shouldn't be a problem for the audio even if the player is inside the bag. It works about the same way as a mobilephone to a Bluetooth headset. Unfortunately, the Zen Xtra player does not support remote control feature.

  • Question about digital signature

    How I can create digital signature for document by some OAS tool in Java servlet? If yes, then how?
    Thanks
    Excuse me my English.
    Maxim

    you add a signature field to your form --> then watch the properties
    you can define collections of fields to tell the document which fields should be regarded/disabled by signing the document
    ads can check signatures (digital signatures) serverside (methods for the pdf object)
    with signature pads its special, you need hardware (pads) and software (plugins for the reader) and so on...
    for signatures in general:

  • Question from worse than Newbie about digital signatures and Adobe Reader.

    1st, thanks for taking the time to even look. 2nd, We are trying to use digital signature pads with PDF documents created by Documaker 11.4. In Adobe Pro there is a setting "Extend features in Adobe Reader" that will allow users with Adobe Reader to sign the PDF documents, however our "guy" creating the forms cannot find anything like this in Documaker. I've never used Documaker before and dont have a copy to even play with, but I was hoping there was a simple "go here, click this" answer.
    Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for you time,
    Jeff Holt

    I'm not expert on Documaker, but I'm close to them and will try to find an answer if I can be sure of the question.
    Documaker is capable of creating PDF signature markers in the output PDF. Those markers are compatible with tools like Acrobat which can sign the documents. Is your question about how to create the markers or are you doing that and finding that Acrobat Reader will not allow you to sign them?
    I'd have to research Adobe's licensing for Acrobat and Reader to see if that was the issue. I know certain features in Acrobat Reader are locked down by Adobe so you have to have another product license from them to enable the feature. If that is the problem, then I'm pretty sure that Documaker has no mechanism to provide a license token to specifically enable the Acrobat Reader product.
    If you can provide more specifics, I'll try to follow up. You may also contact Customer Support, if you haven't already and open a case there requesting a specific question be answered.
    Best Regards.

  • Confused about digital signatures

    Please refer to this archived thread:
    http://www.adobeforums.com/webx?128@@.59b4d8d6
    I'm researching digital signatures because we have a request form that was created in Acrobat 7.1, and that a user signed by creating his own signature in Reader 8.x. In Acrobat 7.1, I see a message when the file is opened that it has been digitally signed, and it verifies the signature. I'm trying to figure out whether that signature process would satisfy an auditor as to its authenticity.
    But according to the above thread, I'd need at least Acrobat 8.0 to "enable" a PDF to be signed. What does that mean? The form I received, by all appearances, *was* signed. It didn't need a special signature field... the signature was added over a standard text field and it was recognized and authenticated, and appeared in the signature pane in both Acrobat 7.1 and Reader 8+.
    Also, what does the 500 signature limit mean? By what process is it determined how many times a form has been used and signed? There is no tie, as far as I can see, from one copy of the form to another. The user simply saves a copy, fills it out, and sends it in. Many different people use that form (it's a work request form for IS services). Does the 500 limit apply in this scenario?
    If anyone could please advise and point me toward documentation that would help me understand how all this should work, I'd be deeply grateful.

    >But according to the above thread, I'd need at least Acrobat 8.0 to "enable" a PDF to be signed. What does that mean?
    It means that you need to use Acrobat 8.0 Professional or above to
    prepare a PDF in a special way.
    If this is not done, Reader cannot sign it.
    > The form I received, by all appearances, *was* signed.
    One possibility is that the person who signed it was not clear about
    what software they actually have.
    >
    >Also, what does the 500 signature limit mean?
    The EULA gives the legal details that lawyers would apply. It has
    seemed that each copy used counts towards the 500. If there is ANY
    POSSIBILITY of this limit being reached it is prudent to use Adobe's
    server enabling software instead.

  • Technical and Philosophical Question re: Digital Signatures

    My question is technical, but has a philosophical issue driving it.
    Summary:
    In Livecycle Designer ES2 (9), I would like to setup a form for digital signature that, once enabled for Reader, you can apply a digital signature without having to immediately save.  I know it can be done.  Example:  http://www.opm.gov/forms/pdf_fill/opm71.pdf
    Technical:
    How is this done?  Is it a setting of the signature field object?
    Philosophical Underpinings:
    1. I don't need the digital signature to be legally defensible, so I don't care if if the document changes after applying the signature, nor will any of the fields be locked down after signing.  However, the digital signature everyone at my company uses is the legally defensible type, so using it instead of digital ink is for simplcity's sake.
    2. When most people sign a paper document, they usually sign, and THEN date.  The problem with Adobe et al.'s implementation of digital signatures is that you have to date, and THEN sign, or else the date field will usually be locked down after you are forced to save the document after signing.  I know that a date field is not required when using digital signatures, but you need to date field in case someone decides to print the form and sign the old fashioned way.
    3. Because of this conundrum, I made the date field auto-populate with the signing date by applying javascript to the signature field that populates the date field upon signing.  The problem with that is that with Adobe forcing me to save the document immediately after signing, the date field does not populate because the signature applies to the version of the document that existed just prior to the signature being applied.  Since the date field wants to populate after signing, it is discarded.
    Hence, I want to prevent Reader from forcing me to immediately save.  I am approaching this philosophical conundrum all wrong?
    Signed,
    Befuddled

    "you can apply a digital signature without having to immediately save.  I know it can be done."
    Whenever a signature is applied, the form gets saved. So, you can't apply a signature without having saved the form. Do some modifications in the form you have provided, save it and validate the signature. Validation would suggest that changes have been done in the form, so signature is invalidated at this stage. This effectively means that data has been changed in the form after signing making it unreliable so to say.
    Since you are moving to digital signing in the form, I do not understand exactly why there's a need to manually enter the date after signing the form digitally. Once you sign the form, date automatically comes in the signature. This solves the purpose/use case that user needs to fill in the date. Ideally, you need to remove the date field from the form.
    "I know that a date field is not required when using digital signatures, but you need to date field in case someone decides to print the form and sign the old fashioned way."
    If you can't remove the date field from the form and want to have a simialr experience in digital world, the option is to write a simple script in the form which checks whether the date is filled in or not. If it's not filled in, abort the signing process and provide a message asking user to fill in the date.

  • Questions about Digital Wireless Headphones CB2

    Hi everyone,
    I have a question about the [url="http://nl.europe.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=437&subcategory=438&product=6 44" target=_self>Digital Wireless Headphones CB2530[/url] I've never seen it in a shop here in Holland, so I thought I'll pose my questions here.
    I'm interested in buying one for my Creative Zen Xtra MP3 player.
    My questions are:
    - if it's possible to connect it to the player?
    - can I use it while traveling (can i hear something if I put the player in my bag)?
    - is it a good idea to buy this headphone? (i already have a great headphone by Philips, but am looking for wireless)
    I also have a question concerning a remote control. Is there one for the Creative Zen Xtra?
    I hope so...
    Thanks in advance.
    Greetings,

  • Basic problem about Digital signature

    hi
    i am new to digital signature .
    I am Developing onlinepurchasing demo.when customer order for quotation he recieves a quotaion pdf which is singed by delaler .now my quostion is how customer can validate that signature .do i need to send certificates to customer along with pdf . please help
    can anyone suggest me good link to learn digital signature.
    Thanks
    Niraj

    Niraj
    The best solution for your scenario would be to "Certify" the PDF that you send to your customer.  A certifying signature is a digital signature applied to a PDF (typically by the author of the document).  Adobe partners with various Certificate Authorities that provide "Certified Document Service" credentials.  If a PDF is certified by one of these credentials, the validation on the client side occurs seamlessly with no configuration required on the client as Acrobat and Reader ship with the Adobe Root Certificate installed.
    For more information on the this, check out: http://www.adobe.com/security/partners_cds.html
    also, http://blogs.adobe.com/security/2008/01/demo_certified_documents_in_ad.html
    and, http://blogs.adobe.com/security/2008/11/livecycle_digital_signatures_t_1.html
    Technically, you could certify a PDF with any credential, but you would need to distribute the certificate (public key) with instructions on how to install it and configure the trust settings in Acrobat or Reader.

  • Created a user account for my daughter but itunes will not open, just says something about digital signature policy

    Hi there, newbie here. Wondered if anyone can help, opened another user account for daughter on windows 64, and when we tried to open itunes a message came up saying it could not open because of digital signature policy, when i go back to my user it opens ok.
    Could anyone help.
    Cheers

    am not prepared to enter my credit card also on her account application.
    You can enter it on the registration page then delete it immediately after you complete the registration.
    If I purchase a iTunes card with some credit, can I open the account for her just with the code?
    If you wish. Instead of going to Create new accout, go to Redeem on the main iTunes store screen, enter the code, then select *Create new account*.
    What will happen if the credit on the card gets to zero?
    She will not be able to make a purchase until another gift card is entered or a CC is linked to the account.

  • General questions about ditial signatures with livecycle

    Hi,
    I am interested in knowing the process how a user with Adobe Livecycle ES is able to sign one or more documents with a smartcard.
    eg. digitally signing 10 or 100 documents with his smartcard.
    Is it generally possible without downloading all those files first, sign them locally and upload them again to the webserver?
    thanks for your advice,
    stefan

    1) Are forms (like described above) an integrated part of livecycle? <br /><answer> Yes<br />2) Do you have to buy the whole livecycle package or is there also a possibility to just get the forms functionality? <br /><answer> LiveCycle server is bought based on functionality and yes you can buy just the forms component<br />3) Do you have to pay for every interactive form you create like it is done when you use it within SAP? <br /><answer> No that is an SAP thing only. Once you buy forms you can build and use as many as you like.<br />4) What hardware and software do I need to make interactive forms happen? <br /><answer> You will need a server and an application server as well as a database. It does ship with a JBOss and mySQL server and depending on your usage you may find that is enough.<br />5) How much would licensing this technology be approximatelly. And how is it organzied? Do you pay for developer licenses, user licenses, or for every form? <br /><answer> You will have to contact an Adobe sales rep to get appropriate pricing. Yes it is organized into developer licenses and production licenses.

  • Basic questions about digital representation

    if i have bitstream
    where 0's and 1's are represented as below
    and after representing them on a graph i want to apply a raised cosine filter and make them look ike this
    soo is there anyway i can do that...please help

    Eldokch, your screenshot is impossible to read!!
    However it looks like your generation of a bitstream differs from mine in that you generate eight lines of digital output (at least thats what is showing on your graph) but I generate a single line. But that should be beside the point, since I have no idea what format your actual real world bitstream takes (and that is what you should be using - mine was just an example of one way it could be done using dummy data).
    The point is I have shown you a principle that you should be able to understand, extrapolate, and make your own. Take each digital bit, make it into a stream of analog samples (in this case, 30 samples of 0.0 or 1.0), and then apply your filter to the analog waveform. If you don't understand how to do this then you need to start studying LabVIEW - I'm not going to debug it for you unless I get your salary too!! 

  • Question about digitizing tablets

    Just a general question. How many of you use a graphics tablet when
    working with your photos? Is it worth getting one? Is it a "must
    have" tool or does it simply do some tasks differently or easier?

    I use one all of the time. They make things like masking, painting, cloning
    and other such things much easier than a mouse. However, unless you are an
    artist you don't need one of the expensive ones. I suggest looking at the
    new Wacom Bamboo Fun line. Great feature set, nice looking tablets and good
    prices.
