Validate signature automatically on Adobe Reader X

Hi!
Adobe Reader 9 auto validates the document signature without doint nothing (only opening the pdf).
With Adobe Reader X the signature appears with a green tick but it says "Signature not verified", and I need to click on it to verify it.
The certificate it's trusted and on the Preferences / Security we have set "Verify Signatures when opening document" (sorry if not it's the exact phrase, I have the spanish version).
Someone could tell me how to say to Adobe Reader X to work as the 9 version did ?
Regards,

Well, I will try to explain a bit better.
Adobe Reader X and 9 shows a top bar with information about the document it's signed and the signature it's ok.
In the body of the document it's one object with information related to the signature as this image:
On Reader 9 it automatically changed to Signature Verified without touching nothing. On Reader X we need to press on this object to verify the signature another time and to change this object text to Signature Verified.
Someone knows how to work as Reader 9 did ?
Thanks for reading.

How is your signature protected on adobe reader when sending documents?

How is your signature protected on adobe reader when sending documents?

It isn't signing in. I hope someone can explain this better than me but it goes something like this.
To sign you make a certificate. Either you buy the certificate from a trusted source, or you make a special public certificate, and send that to all your contacts. This sending is special - you can't just email it, because it could be a fake. People need to know it's real, perhaps by arrangement.
Anyway, people are now set to look at a PDF which says YOU signed it. They can check if the certificate you used matches the public certificate you sent. If it does, the file is unaltered. If it doesn't it is a fake. Plus, there is a third case - it might be your real signature then someone changed the PDF. But thanks to the certificate, when you validate you are told about that too.
Certificates, the law, signing and that area are complex, and you need to understand before you start. It's easy to make worthless signed documents.
By the way, I've no idea if any of this clever stuff works on iOS!!

Signature option in Adobe Reader.

Why is the signature option in Adobe Reader one "greyed out" for iPad users, you can no longer access your signatures and add them to a document ?

Hi F & F,
If you are really looking to create a cryptographically secure digital signature then you need to create a custom signature appearance. If on the other hand all you want to do is add a picture of your signature you need to create a custom stamp. In order to create a digital signature you need to have access to a digital ID (a public/private key pair), and before going through all of the steps of creating a custom signature appearance is this what you intend to do? If so then check out 4 Custom Signature Appearances — Digital Signatures Guide for IT for help in creating the signature appearance. If you just want to create a stamp then look at the tips at Adobe Acrobat X Pro * Create a custom stamp.

How do I open .dll files automatically with Adobe Reader through Firefox?

Hi,
When I print eBay labels through Firefox, a .dll file is downloaded. This used to open automatically in Adobe Reader, but now it opens as a text document in TextEdit, so I have to manually open Adobe Reader, change options to show "all files", and then locate the .dll file and open it.
When I try to change the default application in Firefox preferences, I can't find anything with the content type "dll".
Is there a way to have Firefox automatically open .dll files with Adobe Reader?
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
Steve

That worked, thank you!
I quit out of Firefox, renamed the file like you said, restarted my computer, and restarted Firefox.
When I went to download a label, Firefox asked me which application to use, and I picked Adobe Reader. I also checked the box to make that the default. This automatically opened the file in AR, and then when I did it the next time it worked perfectly.
Again, thank you so much for your help with this - although it's just a bit of time here and there saved it really adds up!
Take care!

How to print two-sided automatically in Adobe Reader 10.1.2?

Hello, when I want to print two-sided with my printer I select this option:
And my printer does it automatically, I do not have to reload the paper.
However, in the new version of Adobe Reader, after selecting that option this one is automatically checked:
And I have to reload the paper manually:
Can the problem be solved? This did not happen in previous versions.
The printer is an HP P1606dn and I am using Adobe Reader 10.1.2. Sorry about the screen captures in spanish.

Hi, Shatik
Thanks for replying.
The DFS shares are mapped as a network drive. This is done just once using a batch file that uses the persistent switch. No roaming profiles, no username\application data path.
Since posting this I can now access PDF's, but many of our staff are now unable to scroll through an entire pdf without Adobe Reader hanging. Again, removing the checkmark in the protected mode option allows full scrolling of a pdf.
Disabling/enabling antivirus real-time scanning makes no difference.

Can't sign signature fields in Adobe Reader XI

Using Adobe Acrobat X (not the Pro edition!) Dutch (NL) Language Edition I created a document with two signature fields. Afterwards I tried to save as "Reader Extended". (The only option I found under "Save As" that looked similar to this command in my Dutch language version was "Uitgebreide PDF Reader" (this means "Extended PDF Reader") and then "Formulieren inschakelen en opslaan in Adobe Acrobat". This last option means literally "Enable forms and save in Adobe Acrobat".)
When I opened the document in Adobe Reader XI (Dutch version again), the two signature fields are clearly visable, but do nothing when I click on them.
I've Googled extensively and also read the other topics on this FAQ which deal with similar problems, but to no avail... Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

KVD

After doing more testing, the Page Open event works in Reader but is very slow updating the result page that has the code and uses the Page Open event.
In Acrobat happens instantly, but in Reader takes a loooong time, sometimes seems that doesn't even update, as it takes forever. Wonder if my Reader's settings are screwed up?
Basically you have two pages, page one with a 4-choice radio button and, page two with a text field to report the value of the selected button choice.
Page two has the following code as Page Opens:
var buttonV = this.getField("Group1").value;
getField("Text1").value = buttonV;

Signature issue in Adobe Reader XI (Unable to sign)

I have Adobe Reader XI installed both on my work laptop and my home PC.
I have the same PDF document on both my home computer and work laptop. (and yes, I have sent a new copy of the working document to my work computer to ensure it hasn't been modified or changed). It is the exact same document.
I open it at home and I have the ability to sign the PDF document and then use the save as option to save a copy of the signed document, and I have done so to submit it on weekly basis. (A time sheet).
I was able to do so at work maybe 2 or 3 times and then one time when opening Reader, a popup appeared for an update for Adobe Reader in my notification area and I installed the update from adobe.com. Ever since I installed that update, now when I open the same document at work, both the Place Initials and Place Signature options are both grayed out and I have not been able to figure out why. I have gone through all the preferences and settings and I can't find anything that would account for them being disabled.
I have not installed the update on my home system for fear of the same issue occurring. (I need to be able to submit that time sheet) and I would like to regain this ability on my work laptop. Can anyone provide any ideas on why I would suddenly lose the ability to sign a PDF document that shows under the document properties as available to be signed. (ie: Signing: Allowed).
I have tried uninstalled and re-installing Adobe Reader on the laptop. Same issue.
Any help or suggestions appreciated.

This is definitely a set up issue and User might have unintentionally assigned the port belonging to someother printer to this printer on his machine.
This is a setup issue and completely unrelated to Adobe reader. You may infact verify from some other non-Adobe Applications.
Thanks,

Using a Signature Pad in Adobe Reader Ubuntu Linux??

We are wanting to move away from Window and us Ubuntu Linux on our field computers. The only problem is we have a signature pad and we need that to work in Adobe Reader. We are using a Topaz signature pad. I have been in contact with the company and they have been very helpful. They have a driver for the signature pad in linux but they do not have a plugin for Adobe Reader. Does anyone know a signature pad that will work in Adobe Reader? Does anyone know if there is a plugin for Adobe Reader that may be used to work with the current signature pad we have. Topaz said they can help me get set up to the point of going into Reader but then we would have to go the rest of the way. Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks

I'm also experiencing the same issue where we go to open a document and it takes a long time to verify each of the signatures. Have you found a solution to this?

How to apply for self-developed plug-in signatures licensing about Adobe Reader

Our company is doing something in the field of electronic certification industry, which uses Adobe reader to sign PDF files based on various signature algorithms. While, there is a problem that Adobe reader does not support PDF signature based on the signature algorithm of SM2. To solve the problem, we have developed an API file. And now, we can use the Adobe Professional version sign files Successfully, only by put the API file under the folder named Adobe plug-in, but not work well in Adobe Reader. According to the documentation, such as http://www.adobe.com/cn/devnet/reader/ikla.html and http://www.adobe..com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/plugin_apps_developer_guide .pdf, in Adobe Acrobat Reader, a self-developed plug-in we have developed need to be signed or obtain the relevant certification by Adobe before use.
If we propose certification and licensing applications to Adobe to ask the possibility of obtaining permission for our plug-in, what are the specific processes and requirements we need to know? Any useful information, I would be grateful. (Including the information we need to provide, as well as the cost and the certification time, etc.)

E-mail program won't open PDF attachments automatically with Adobe Reader

When I get e-mail with PDF attachment I get a message saying I must open only from trustworthy source. Then I click it open, but it won't open. So I click save, and it is saved to desktop where I can then open it with Adobe Reader. I prefer that Outlook automatically opens it with Adobe Reader when I click it just once. I have updated Adobe Reader from 9.0 to 9.3.2, and it still won't work,

I have had the exact same problem, i use windows mail because my computer was unable to run outlook for a reason i can't remember and this is dead-set exactly the process i go through constantly. I have unistalled/reinstalled adobe multiple times.

No signature pain in Adobe Reader XI

Why is it that if you have a submit ( by email ) button on a form, the options for adding a writen or typed signature are greyed out and you can only add a digital signature when filling it with Adobe Reader 11, but you can put a writen signature on the form if you are using the Adobe Reader App for iOS or Android?

PDF files closing automatically in adobe reader

Hi there,
A colleague is experiencing a problem when completing a editable PDF form. The problem that a little way through completing the form the form closes without notification or prompt from adobe reader and all information entered into the form is lost.
Any help on why this is happening would be gratefully received.
Many thanks and kind regards
Lee

the uninstall and re-install may work, but i'm not sure that it's the "easiest" way. it's not difficult, and it's good to know in general how to "associate" a program with a certain type of file as noted above. that approach is more "universal" and "applicable" for nearly all future needs.
That may be correct for advanced users, especially if they know that they may also need to re-associate other Adobe Reader file types such as FDF, PDFX, PDX, etc.

Can I make an internet browser automatically download Adobe Reader if not already installed

Hi,
Basically I have an embedded PDF file in my HTML page, if Adobe Reader is not installed I want the browser to prompt the user to download Adobe Reader to view the PDF. Is this possible?
Cheers in advance
Matt

Many have tried, with the result that their web pages frequently get
it wrong and deny access to PDFs.
Not to mention people who don't use Adobe Reader to read PDFs, or who
download for later use.
Best to just clearly explain you have a PDF, and link to Adobe to
download Reader if required.

Signature verification in Adobe Reader 10 takes a VERY long time...

I work for a restaurant chain that uses PDFs for their new hire paperwork. We use a signature pad to sign the documents, and the documents have 51 signature boxes. Due to signature verification, it takes an absurdly long time to complete the paperwork (up to 60 minutes). Is there a way to disable the signature verification? It's incredibly frustrating to the management staff to have to sit in the office for an hour just to fill out a document that should only take about 15 minutes.

I'm also experiencing the same issue where we go to open a document and it takes a long time to verify each of the signatures. Have you found a solution to this?
