Transfer attachments and Digital Signatures,from a PDF, to Interactive Form

Hi,
I am developing an an application in WebDynpro Java.
I have a requirement that a user A creates a new interactive form & fills some of the details, & then saves the form.
User B then fetches the form & fills the remaining details.
User A can add attachments & digitally sign the form(using digital signatures).
When user A saves the form, the application saves it in the JDT. The application fetches the pdf from the JDT & shows it to the user B.
The problem is that, when the form is displayed to user B, i need to pass a variable(using context nodes) to the form, so that some of the properties(visibility,read-only,etc) of the UI elements(of the form) changes, depending on the variables' value.
For this purpose, i need to use the Form for user B in ""UpdateDataInPdf" mode.
But if i do this, then all the attachments, signatures saved in the pdf form(by user A), do not get transfered to the Interactive Form of User B!!
How do i overcome this problem??
I am using NW7.0 SP13.; Designer7.1, xACF is installed.

Hi everyone,
I solved this issue using the transferPDFDataIntoContext of the WDInteractiveFormHelper class.
The AIF mode must be set to usePdf.
I hope it will be useful.
Regards,
Mirco

Email attachments and digital signature

I used to be able to open a email attachment, review it and then digitally sign it.
Since the new IT people came it, the digital signature simply disappears. Any way to restore this function? Thanks.

We experienced a similar problem when Adobe updates were installed. It seems that a recent Adobe update took away the capability to save your digital signature directly to the PDF email attachment, then forward the email with the signed attachment. Now, when we open a PDF email attachment and place a digital signature, as soon as we have entered our password for our digital signature, we are prompted with the "Save As" dialog box asking us to save the document somewhere on the hard drive of our computer (the default location is My Documents). If you hit Cancel, then the signed version does not get saved. The attachment remains unsigned. So we learned we needed to go through the Save As dialog and choose (and remember) a location to save the PDF, such as My Documents or Desktop, then reply or compose a new email and attach the signed version that we had just saved in Documents/Desktop. We used to be able to hit the Save icon in Adobe and save our changes (digital signature) to the email attachment. Having to save the PDF somewhere other than the email itself is an extra step we'd prefer to avoid, and we'd be happy to learn of a way to go back to our old method. I believe the key was that Adobe would save the signed version somewhere in the "temp files" on the C drive and automatically use that version when the email is forwarded. And I think Adobe did away with that, unless there is a way to revert to that method using Preferences?
But I wonder if the Asker of this question is able to click "Place Signature" and has an opportunity to "Save As," saving the PDF on the hard drive of the computer for future attaching? Are you hitting "Cancel" in the Save As dialog?
If you save the signed PDF (i.e. in the default My Documents), then a slightly quicker method than having to browse to the saved document in Documents is, you can click on the envelope icon (Sharing) at the top of the screen. Then click the "Attach to Email" circle and click the "Attach" button. This will generate a new email in your email application (i.e. Outlook) with the signed PDF attached (Adobe pulls the signed version that you previously saved to your Documents). The downside to this is that the generated email will not have the original email thread or subject line, so you will need to add a relevant subject line.
Some of our users reported that they used the Share ... Attach to Email feature and their signatures would get wiped from the email attachment after they hit send. However, this phenomenon has not been witnessed since the most recent Adobe software update.

Apple mail strips my digital signature from pdf attachments

I communicate with clients through email. I send reports which contain a picture of my signature and a digital hass. Apple mail strips the signature from the pdf files as I attach them.
An aside. I use mobile me and the idisk server. All documents located on the idisk are also stripped of the signature block.
This is not a problem if I use outlook, which I guess I have to switch back to again.
What does apple have against a digital signature

I sign the pdf with a digital signature which includes a picture of my written signature. When I attach it to Apple mail or upload to mobileme, the signiture disappears. My clients see nothing. When I go back to the email in the sent box and open the pdf in the email there is no signature. When I open the original pdf the signature is there
This problem does not exist in outlook 2011, but would have liked to use mail as outlook does not support caldev
I don't know if I can explain it any better.

Need to pre-populate and Extract data from static PDF form

Hi Jasmin or Jayan or anyone else that can answer.
I have a requirement to use Digital Signatures. Because of that, the forms must be static PDFs and the form variables will be “document form”. I want to pre-populate the form via an SQL query and custom render process and render it as PDF so that the submitter can apply a digital signature when he/she is done and ready to submit for approvalSubsequent approvers will also digitally sign the form. I know that I will specify the custom render to render only once and thereby preserve the signature(s) on the form. I do, however, need to extract data from the form to control the business process. I cannot access the data in the form the same way I do with an xdp and I also cannot pre-populate the same way I do with an xdp.
Any suggestions on how to attack this?

Parth, one problem with your approach is he will submit PDF and therefore you won't be able to put the PDF in a variable that's suppose to contain just xml.
The prepopulation should be the same. If you start off with an xdp, then you will call a render service that merges data with your xdp to create a PDF.
Now when you submit, you will submit the entire PDF back in the Document Form variable. In Workbench, you can use the FormDataIntegration service to extract data from that PDF that's being stored under Document Form var/object/document and put it in an xml variable. Then you can just use xPath to do your condition.
I'm assuming you'll just pass that same Document Form variable to the next step, because if you do any change to the PDF it'll brake the signature.
Let me know if I missed anything.

Transfer Smartform Logo/Digital Signature To Unix

Hi Experts,
I need to transfer Smartform's Logo/ Digital Signature to unix server along with other text of smartform.
Current Status:
Text on the SF has been converted and tranferred to Unix using Dataset operations (Character by Character Approach in Binary Mode)
Problem:
Target file in Unix is not displaying the Logo and digital signature that is there in SF.
I am using 'Convert_OTF' and then 'QCE1_Convert' FM to gget PDF data and then transfer each character to dataset using Binary mode.
Please guide how to get Graphics also.
Thanks
Depesh

Hi,
Yes, I have tested the smartform using Print Preview as well as I have downloaded it to desktop in PDF format before sending it to UNIX. Downloaded as well as print preview file is showing the Graphics but when sent to Archive for UNIX directory, Graphics are not diplayed.
I am working on ECC 6.0.
Do you have any idea if the images in Binary format when sent to UNIX are readable directly or we need some other patch/storage maintenance for extracting images in UNIX.
Thanks
Depesh

How do I stop an unwanted pop-up, "Click on Sign to add text and place signature on a PDF File"?

Whenever I open a PDF using Adobe Reader X, a pop-up appears at the upper right-hand corner of the document display window that says "Click on Sign to add text and place signature on a PDf file".
Is there some way that I can stop this pop-up from appearing everytime I open a PDF?
Thanks.

Click on "Sign" so that the Sign pane opens and leave it open for a few seconds. It wont re-appear if you re-launch Reader now.
HTH.

Thanks for your help.

Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

Trying to copy and paste text from a pdf to a webpage

trying to copy and paste text from a pdf to my iWeb edit page shows up as red lines, only shows up on the website if I highlight it, please help

If it only shows up when you highlight it, then it could be your font or your font color. Try changing both to a different font to see if that helps. If not, copy it into a word processor such as Microsoft Word, Pages, or Text Edit to see if it shows up there. If it does, try copying it again from the processor to your webpage.

Save metadata per digital signature field in PDF?

Hi All,
I'm looking for a way to save metadata per digital signature field in a PDF.
For example for each signature I would like to save additional string property.
Can I use XMP in this case?
Thanks in Advance!

Hi,
Yes, we have options to add digital signature to the pdf. We have one attribute called "Permissions" in "cfpdf" tag. If we provide permissions = 'AllowSecure', then system would allow digital signature for that pdf.
Please go though the docs for details info. I will post in details next.
Thanks
