Signature with .pdf image only?

I have created a fillable form using Adobe Pro XI.  The form can be filled out using Reader and
users can put in their digital ID signatures into the blocks I created for
that.  However, going through the process
of signing the form, the only option for a scanned in image of a hand written
signature is a .pdf file.  Guess I
thought any type file such as jpegs, bitmaps, etc. could be used.  The problem with the .pdf file is our users
cannot crop this type of image down to just the signature using Reader.  So, when the image is placed into the
signature block, it is the whole 8.5x11 page.
Can’t really see the signature.  I
tested some other fillable forms for Reader found online from other sources and
it I is the same thing.  Can only use
.pdf  file as the signature image.  Is there another way to do this?  Am I missing something?

Reader only allows signatures from pdf files, Acrobat from other files. When scanning their signature they should be able to scan to a custom size page or use a graphics program to crop the scanned image even if it is a pdf. The Mac Preview program is capable of cropping pdfs. The only graphics program I use on Windows is Photoshop, which can do the job, but it is certainly what I would call overkill for the job. Perhaps ImageJ or Gimp can do the job of cropping.

    Hi need to do a data merge but with pdf's not jpg or tifs. I am having the result with jpgs but not with pdf's.
    Can i do it with pdf's?

    in fact that is not a problem because i have both pdfs same size and orientated, the only thing is that i cannot use the pdf docs for some reason.

    As Mylenium says, it appears that you're looking at your layers edge-on in Left view. Switch to Active Camera view.

  • QT crashes with PDF image sequence

    A script generates 72 small (ca. 1100 bytes) pdf files as movie frames and I "Open Image Sequence...". The movie, whether saved or not, crashes at a certain point.
    All the frame files open without a problem in Preview. By laboriously weeding out the files that cause the crash I end up with a "disabled" folder containing 6 of the original 72 files, so the movie now runs (on the Mac at least) with just the hiccups created by the excluded files.
    I next tell QT to open the image sequence containing all the disabled files and, lo and behold, I get another movie that behaves.
    Has anybody any idea what might be the problem?
    JD

    Thank you.
    I don't have to use .pdf's. I am trying to find the most direct path from a series of postscript files to a Quicktime image sequence.
    Acrobat distiller will convert a series of postscript images to .pdf's with a single "click".
    I don't know of a way to do the same conversion from postscript to .jpg's. Preview requires you to convert each image individually, AFAICT.
    I'd be happy to go from postscript to .jpg directly if it can be done painlessly.
    These are simple .pdf files. I opened one in Acrobat and checked. I am also able to open the individual files with QT and they look as I expect them to.
    If you try to open a series of postscript files with Quicktime Open Image Sequence, the .ps files are greyed out. .pdf files do show up as "openable", so it seems like this ought to work.
    I have also tried it with QT version 7.1.6 with the same result.

    however when i schedule a new job it succeeds but i don't get my digital signature ,, but i get an empty square with nothing written in it.

  • FCE 4 for slideshows with still images only

    I recently put together a slideshow in FCE 4 from my still photographs. The show looks great when I run the original file. But the DVD I created looks awful. Is there a special way to size the still images for better quality. I sized them the way we do at camera club for our digital projector (1024 X 768, resolution 100).
    Thanks.
    Barb

    Unfortunately, Tom, the slideshow capabilities in iPhoto are not sophisticated enough. I need to be able to "choreograph" the images with a musical selection. I like the marker features in FCE so I can easily time out the musical selection and place the transitions where I need them before I even import my images. I also like the ability to play with the audio, for example, trimming and fading out a piece of music that may be a tad long; or starting a selection of music after a title slide has been on the screen. I kind of need the type of editing one does with film but using still images. If only Apple would combine some of the features of Final Cut Express with a program like iPhoto that handles the still image resolution. Any possibility of that happening?

  • In photoshop cc my saved files don't appear as thumbnails with the image, only with the generic tiff or jpeg icon

    how do i get actual thumbnail images in photoshop cc instead of generic tiff or jpeg icons??

    And what exactly? If you mean system thumbnails, then this has nothing to do with PS. You messed up your file associations then by installing a tool that usurped those associations and they no longer default to the Windows preview function.

  • Linking the Invoice with PDF image of invoice already archived

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement to link my Incoming Invoice with Image of Invoice which is archived in another server.
    Can someone suggest how to achieve this.
    P.S: The invoice is created through an IDOC hence we are planning to have archive ID and Document ID in the Inbound IDOC, if it is helpful.
    Thanks

    Hi Arun,
        Look at BOR object IMAGELINK. There are methods Assign and Assignobject. Take lead from these methods and try writting your piece of code on same lines. We have used this in workflows. Ofcourse there is customizing (if you have not done it already) try reading on early or late archiving. I hope it helps.
    Warm Regards,

  • Working with still images only in FCP

    Hello:
    I am an editor/musician  working on a very cool project will a wonderful illustrator.
    The illustrations will be scanned and then imported into FCP for manipultion (panning, zooming, etc.) then adding narration and music.
    Can somebody suggest the best timeline setting/pixel shape for doing this?
    The images have been scanned at 150 dpi and have a size of 1920 x 1080
    As I mentioned the images are still and I manipulate/move on them by using the size/motion tools in FCP
    Thanks for any advice.
    RIP Steve J
    A.S.

    The images have been scanned at 150 dpi and have a size of 1920 x 1080
    150 dpi doesn't really apply here (that's a print thang, directly related to inches), since you gave us the dimensions of 1920 x 1080, that's all we need. (technically you could have a file of 72 dpi be at 1920 x 1080, and it would still be the same save size in terms of pixels, though not in terms of inches)....
    You mention zooming... what is the end use of the video? Strictly Internet? or Blu Ray? SD DVD? because as you probably know, HD video is 1920 x 1080, so zooming there may not be a good idea since you would start to show pixelation. So if you plan to have an HD sequence, your images should be scanned in a tad bit bigger (as much as you are zooming in, but not any bigger than FCP can actually handle).
    And talking about panning/zooming, you'll end up with better results if you use Motion.
    If you are doing something which is not meant for Broadcast, choose the Pro Res LT 1920 x 1080 30p preset. In the sequence settings you can change the fps to 30 exactly.

  • Trouble converting powerpoint files with png images to pdf-Can someone help?

    Hello all,
    In my line of work, I create and modify large sized posters that are created in powerpoint. I would have the files print ready by converting them to pdf. I usually have little to no issues executing this. However, I have been dealing with an issue of converting ppt files with png images. The size of the ppt is typically a 42x56 file. The several ways to convert to pdf produces an error each time. Png images are very useful as they provide much clarity vs jpegs or tiffs. The 3 ways I have tried below are:
    A) File>Print>Adobe PDF>High Quality print settings/300dpi results to an error message that says:
         "Windows cannot print due to a problem with the current print setup. Try one of the following:
         *Check the printer by printing a test page from Windows.
         *Make sure the printer is turned on and online.
         *Reinstall the printer driver"
         A blank pdf opens up (Selected to open file after publishing)
    B) File>Save as> Change file type as a pdf results in nothing happening. No pdf is produced.
    C) Acrobat>Create PDF results to an error message that says: "An unexpected error occured. PDFMaker was unable to produce the Adobe PDF."
    Again, this all happens with ppt files with png images. I took out the png images and attempted to convert to pdf, and the pdf is produced! 
    Can anyone provide any assistance in creating pdfs with png images or what settings I need to adjust? I am able to covert every other image type (jpeg, tiff, bmp), except for png images.
    I am using Microsoft Office 2010 with Adobe Acrobat X on Windows 7 (This happened on Windows XP as well).

    >I have a 48 slide presentation that has a small .png image in the "slide
    >master" so it will show up on every page.
    PowerPoint only has to store one instance of the image even thought it is
    displayed on multiple slides. But Acrobat can't do the same, the image has
    to be stored for every page that it appears on, so that would explain the
    larger file size.
    Acrobat is supposed to be able to optimize the storage of common background
    images (at least that's the message I see when I do a "Save as..."), but I
    have yet to see it to work. Maybe it depends on the application the orginal
    file is created in and the PDF conversion method used.
    Adding the image into a PDF file later as a watermark instead may be a way
    to keep the size down (then it really only does store the object once),
    though I believe that watermark images will appear in front of everything
    else on the page (not sure if that's a problem for you, it depends on
    whether any text or objects in the presentation ever appear in front of the
    image).
    What are the dimensions and resolution of the image in PowerPoint? You may
    be able to go as low as 75 dpi and not notice a difference, it depends on
    whether the image contains any areas of high contrast or text.

  • Problem with manipulating PDF images in Keynote

    Hi,
    I am using LaTeXiT to insert equations (in PDF format) into Keynote. Note this is the only vector format that really works. Creating equations and dragging them onto a slide works fine, but then it is difficult to select and manipulate them on the slide.
    I have inserted other PDF images and run into the same problems, so it seems that this is a bug with Keynote. I have tried to reinstall Keynote but to no avail.
    Does anyone know how to solve this?
    Thanks!

    it is difficult to select and manipulate them on the slide.
    What exactly is the difficulty are you haveing?
    The only adjustments you can make to a PDF file placed in Keynote is to position and size the image.
    If you click on the image to select it, 8 bounding box handles will show, ( small black squares ) you can then click and drag them to resize. Click anywhere on the image to place it anywhere on the screen.

  • How do I make a PDF Slideshow from Bridge CS4 with 500 images?

    Every year I go for an extended photo shooting trip. I use about 400 to 600 of the images to make a PDF slide show. This worked fine in all previous versions of Bridge, but no longer works properly in Bridge CS4. I can create PDF files with up to 329 images, but when I try to make a PDF file with more than that, the PDF file is corrupted. Sometimes, the PDF file opens, but about 10% of the image at random location are corrupted, and their thumbnails show up as white or black patches. At other times, the file does not open in Adobe Reader. I get a variety of error messages. The most common is #109.
    Just to be certain it is not caused by my images, I used 550 images I had used to make a PDF show last year with Bridge CS3. I get the same problem. The slide show created last year with 550 images in Bridge CS3 still works in Adobe Reader, ruling out the Reader a being the cause of the problem. It appears that some bug has crept into the CS4 Bridge code.
    Unfortunately, a while ago a deleted CS3 from my hard drives without making a copy of the downloaded dmg of CS3, so I can no longer re-install CS3. BTW, other than this bug, I am very happy with CS4. As a photographer, I find the improvements made in CS4 ACR stunning.
    Is there a known work-around for this bug?
    Is it likely to be fixed in an upcoming update?
    Is there a way I can download a copy of CS3 allowing me to install CS3 Bridge, or, if needed, the whole CS3 suite?
         (I still have a record of my CS3 registration code.)

    I found an answer to my own question. A work around of sorts.
    Download Photoshop Elements 6 for Macintosh. With PSE6 I made a slide show with 550 images 1920x1200, without thumbs. I ran into one problem making the slide show. My images contained 4 images which had not ben created by Photoshop and could not be included in the slide show. Opening the images in Photoshop CS4 and re-saving them still did not make then acceptable. Not a big deal. I probably could have fixed the four images by stripping all EXIF data before opening them in Photoshop. BTW, PSE6 made the slide show in demo mode.
    I hope the bug in Photoshop CS4 will be fixed in Photoshop CS5.
