What licensing do I need for this use ?

Question

Lets say Im planning an application which does nothing but
allows the user to upload Adobe PDF documents to our server. Then
once on the server, parse the values from forms on the PDF's and
extract the data. We wont be distributing Acrobat reader or any
other Adobe product, but will provide a link where they can
download the reader.
Also, the PDF's would be created by someone with a copy of
Acrobat pro. These PDF's will need digital signature capability.
Can Acrobat reader handle signatures ?
Here are my questions:
- What licensing do I need, if any, in the above scenario,
other than that for a copy of Acrobat ?
- What are my options for capturing digitical signatures
within a PDF and will the publicly available version of Acrobat
reader allow the end user to sign the documents, provided they
install the extra requirements for handling the signatures ?

This isn't the correct forum for this topic, but I may be
able to get you started...
The licensing restrictions on gathering form data from PDFs
is outlined in the EULA for Reader, I believe there is a limit of
500 copies, but I could be wrong ... you should look at the EULA to
be sure.
Beyond that, try posting to the
Acrobat
Forums or contacting a sales rep at Adobe, they may be able to
advise you further.
