Digital signature of a PDF with Adobe Reader

Hello

I am trying to create a PDF file with a form of digital signature so that one of our users with Adobe Reader can sign digitally (to allow) the document.

I use Acrobat 9 Standard, I created the signature form and saved with "extend forms fill-in & save in Adobe Reader... "It works very well for other forms (check the box for example) but not the Signature field. The field is visible, but all options are grayed out.

Security before saving settings 'extend forms fill-in & save in Adobe Reader... "all are allowed, but after changing the Document/Document Assembly/comments/signature/creation of template Pages are all unauthorized. I have appreciatesome need to be restricted to allow extended functionality work in Adobe Reader, but the link below means (unless I'm missing something) that the signature should be possible in Adobe Reader:

Did I miss something or it just not work?

Thanks in advance

One thing that can cause this is a system incorrect date/time on one of the machines. If the date indicated on the machine of the reader is before the date on which the document was compatible player, it will happen.  It could be something else, like a font problem, but it's hard to say without looking at the paper.

  • Print PDFs with Adobe Reader error

    Sometimes when I try to print a PDF with Adobe Reader, it will print the first two pages OK, then the rest will be ruined. This may be the cause for this?

    Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

    Probably a printer driver problem.  Try to update the printer driver to the latest version from the manufacturers Web site and check the printer cable is properly connected and is directly to the printer.

    Reinstall the latest version of Acrobat (you must download it, install it, then check the updates, thanks to Adobe being so weird not giving the latest patches for download), and then try again. If you still experience the problem, you can try to PDF trouble Toolbox https://www.fixtoolbox.com/pdffix.html

    Bernd, these rights are not necessary to the reader XI. Unless the file has been secured, then it should be savable.

    I recommend that upgrade you to the latest version of the XI player that is available and if this does not work, try to run a repair installation (or upgrade to DC).

  • Loss of ability to annotate PDFs with Adobe Reader

    I used to be able to annotate PDF with Adobe Reader documents (electricity bills, Council rates, etc.). Has had a recent drive failure and had to re - install the operating system of Windows 7 SP 1 and most of the applications.

    Now, I have Adobe Reader 9, V 9.3.4 (don't remember what version I had before). With this player, I see comments that I did before (I mean before the disk failure), but I can not activate the comment & toolbar from the Markup. All PDF documents now show "commenting: unauthorized".

    Can anyone suggest how to fix this?

    Thank you

    Upgrade to XI player or later.

  • I can't open the PDF with Adobe Reader XI... get an error that "Adobe has stopped working" then it closes.  Any suggestions?

    I can't open the PDF with Adobe Reader XI... get an error that "Adobe has stopped working" then it closes.  Is it a question of Adobe, Microsoft problem or security issue?

    Since you talk about Microsoft, I guess you're on Windows.

    Can you open Reader by itself?  If so, try to disable the Protected Mode [Edit |] Preferences | (Improved) security].

    Thank you!

    I've personally used both in the drive in a plugin, and the drive itself makes these calls.  HOWEVER, they only work on the active Reader documents.

  • Open the PDF with Adobe Reader - wonder what must do Firefox - every time

    Hello

    Whenever I want to open a PDF file, Firefox asks me "that should Firefox do with this file.
    I opened with Adobe Reader (default) selected and I have the box 'do this automatically... ". "checked.

    So, it seems to me that Firefox should not ask me every time.

    Hi - I do not always want to ask; I want that he will never ask.

    That said, I changed my setting of the option "always ask" and the next time I tried to open a PDF document, the open dialog box to ask me what to do. The box 'do this automatically... ". ' has been disabled, as expected.

    I checked the box 'do this automatically... ". "and now Firefox is most requested.

    Weird way to solve the problem, but it seems to work fine now.
    Thank you

    Hi Ajlan,

    To solve my problem, I uninstalled adobe reader X with "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool", rebooted the server, installed Adobe Reader XI and restarted again.

    For some users, this fixes the problem, but with a few others, I had to define default Adobe Reader again.

    I tried without using 'Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat cleaning tool' front and the adobe reader X software was not really uninstall.

    Thank you

    Kind regards

  • Reading the PDF with Adobe Reader: display size

I wish that the body of the text (right-hand side) appears at 100% or full size. I display the speaker on en the page zoom 100%. If I sweep sequentially pages with the arrows I remains at 100%. However if I aux.1 another page I go to 58%. I would like to display constantly at 100% and if possible open it directly by default 100%

  • I can't fill all the PDF with Adobe Reader downloads

    I had Adobe Reader X with this problem then uninstalled X, then installed Adobe Reader XI and again I cannot complete downloads of PDFs on the Explorer of Windows 8 with on the page of document explore downloader crashing. Then a few times when I have the option ' save in ' the PDF doc to a download file I open it from there. Most of all the PDF files existing open very well.

    UPDATE!

    I had to fix it myself!

    Not more than one person (thank you) has tried to help me!

    I FIXED IT...

    The problem was that we could tell a free Adobe reader conflict. The software would not shut down all instances. He just wouldn't leave, time I had turned off my PC or other. If I tried to run one instance of the software Adobe reader then failed, then tried again, the number of times I've tried always would continue and would not stop trying to 'end task' with the 'Task Manager' in the section 'process', then when I managed moreover to 'process' was more in the "Details" section of 'Task Manager' who wouldn't stop!

    I down loaded "Acrobat Cleaner" and he ran immediately by selecting Adobe Reader to delete, after starting my PC and he took all the facilities.

    I then proceeded to find the files of all the other "Adobe Reader" downloaded and just trained to the trash.

    It gave me the chance to make a very clean install, and it worked with out faltering.

    If you are having problems, do a cleaning of Adobe Reader of all the old versions and install one that is suitable for your computer.

    Acrobat Reader now load very fast, like I mean very soon!

  • How to open a default PDF with Adobe Reader?

    Hello world!!

    I used to have Adobe Acrobat, but I don't have it anymore.

    When I had Acrobat PDF files in my sistem and PDF files in the web site have been opened without problems by Acrobat but now I just Adobe Reader (Acrobat, not) and PDF files in my sistem and on the web are not open and cannot read...

    Even PDF files in my sistem display a PDF icon as when I had installed Acrobat.

    What could I do to be able to open files by default PDF with my Adobe Reader software?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Right click on a PDF file and select open with and then select the always open with button. You can get Adobe Reader and go from there. It is a feature of the OS, not a feature of player. For any other questions about Reader, see the reader forum.

  • Cannot print a single copy of a PDF with Adobe Reader.

    Cannot print multiple copies of a pdf document using Adobe Reader XI. When you print multiple copies all that we get are symbols and numbers along the top of the page. If a copy is selected printing is successful, but by selecting multiple copies translates as gibberish at the top of the page on all copies. Under the latest print drivers Windows 10. To print multiple copies of programs other than Adobe.Has, someone else has experienced this problem and found a resolution?

    For troubleshooting, you can disable the Protected Mode (https://helpx.adobe.com/reader/using/protected-mode-windows.html#id_94783) and see if that solves the problem. If the problem persists, please re-enable the Protected Mode to improve safety.

  • Save a PDF with Adobe Reader

    I'm sure there's a way to save your PDF file once you complete the form using Adobe Reader. From my understanding, I need to activate Adobe Reader Extention, but I don't know how to do this. If this is correct, can someone please explain how to do this? Thank you!

    Yes, it is because you do not have Acrobat X.

    Is Acrobat 9 I think.

    Then, the option is located under the tool menu.
