• A publication of signature and lock filling PDF form. [Android]

  Guys,

  I created a PDF form for our engineers in the Department, and he works well with your Android app re clients signature on site.
  However, when my engineers send the signed PDF it can be changed, and the form fields modified by anyone who opens it with the PDF reader.
  
  How can I "lock" PDF forms once post completing and signing with your Android APP...?

  I see hundreds of people, in various forums, including the Adobe forums, that it is a problem.

  Any help or advice would be appreciated.

• signature of a pdf document

  I just upgraded to OS X 10.11.5 and use Adobe Reader 10.1.4. I would like to add a signature to a PDF document that I opened. The signature is already created in the preview and I can't find the image it under Tools > annotate > Signature. Adobe request type, draw or use a picture to insert the signature. What is the location of the file for the signature that I can see a preview? On a somewhat related topic, how can I add a signature to an e-mail message?

• Importing data from pdf forms

  Thank in advance anyone who can help me with this problem.

  I need to create a web application involving pdf forms. My need starts with customers downloading some pdf forms. Most of these pdf forms have a signature field (must be the handwritten signature). These forms must be hosted in the web application where users fill out forms. Some fields in these forms are pre-populated based on the end users of the information (from database). (And I know we can do this with iText as I already used). End users must complete the rest of the form and the Panel at the bottom (if they use a phone or Tablet).

  The challenge now is to get all of these data as well as the signature on the request (or at least the snapshot of the form).  Is where it miss me the point and hope that if you could help. So far, I tried a few tools and APIs (iText, pdf.js,...), but none of them are promising or satisfying the requirements.

  You have a tool or approach to achieve this?

• Create pdf forms to fill out on-line for customer to distribute to their customers via their website.

  Have taken a very old Quark doc and made a PDF form in Acrobat Pro 11 on mac. The customer wants customers to download on their site, complete and return by e-mail using the button "submit". Created action Submit button using e-mail viable test in the form "mailto:[email protected]", selected the export Format "PDF the complete document" and .pdf is registered as active player. " During the test to myself by sending the PDF in piece form attached e-mail, download and open in Acrobat Reader 11 on pc, form can be filled when the SHIPMENT is selected, first get "No Matches Found", I hit 'OK', but then "any of the specified recipients can not be resolved." That kills it.

  This client is small and never goes down the path to the server to get the answers.

  In addition, what is the problem with '500 users limit' i've going through trying to understand this?

  Yes, Acrobat Standard can enable drive forms, but it does not include the right to use digital signature as Acrobat Pro, but it probably won't be a problem.

  Submission by email might work very well for most users who use desktop Adobe Reader versions, but the client must be prepared to deal with cases where it doesn't, assuming that they even hearing thereon. Providing a fillable version on the screen, but not electronically electronic is a reasonable thing to do.

• try to sign a pdf form on an Android tablet - can see the icon of the sign, but gray - why?

  PDF form fields - signature field does NOT work. Tried the same forms on iPhone and iPad - they work fine. Can see the icon 'sign' in the drop-down list of observations, but it is grayed out - why?

  On android devices, open the file in Acrobat Reader DC app. Then click on observer at the top left. Since the navigation panel, select the fill & sign and sign the document by typing in the location desired on the document.

  On android devices it will not show the Signature field.

• Attach external files to signed pdf forms.

  I work for the Department of the army and get pdf forms to be completed directly with the direction of army publication. I have contacted about this problem and I was told it is a restriction in the Adobe software and they can't solve it.

  The army uses evaluation forms to be signed to vmultiple times throughout the year, both by employees and supervisors. The process is the following:

  The Spiderbeam of the rating period, the employee receives the assessment form and is required to sign digitally to document its acceptance of the requirements of the job for the coming year. At the end of the year, it is necessary to attach an external file indicating their achievements throughout the past year and then digitally sign the form. The supervisor then adds his digital signature to the bottom of the form. The problem is, once the initial employee digitally form, he or she can join is no longer external files. Therefore, the files are routed separate from the signed form and there is nothing that links the two together even if the employee and the supervisor are both certifying that what is on the attachment is specific when they sign the pdf form. It's a problem because the attachment can be altered.

  If it is not a solution at this time, I ask Adobe Acrobat to consider this type of scenario when they write patches/fixes for the software and/or by creating the next version.

  Sincerely,

  Donna S. Curtiss

  Hi donnac51709058,

  I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused, however this is a limitation. Than to join the files changes the structure of the PDF file that will not be allowed once the PDF file is signed.

  I will surely take note of this issue.

• How can I automatically populate the date field after only one "digitally signs" a .pdf form? Help, please! Thank you!

  How can I automatically populate the date field after only one "digitally signs" a .pdf form? Here's a sample:

  _ Digital Signature___ (signs), Date (Auto-remplit)

  Under field properties of the signature on the signature tab, you can use a custom script, like this:

  this.getField("Date").value = util.printd ("mm/dd/yyyy", new Date());

  You know, however, that a digital signature always displays the date and time, it has been applied?

• prevent changes to signed and sent the PDF form

  Hello world!

  I hope you can help me. Please excuse any poor English and also all false translations of Acrobat buttons / functions since my Acrobat is in German I don't know the correct English terms.

  [Win7, Acrobat XI]

  I created a PDF form (w / InDesign).

  "I added the 'Send form' action [Formular senden] in Acrobat by using the 'Edit form tools' then right click on the word > properties > actions.

  A user can complete and sign before you send the whole PDF for me.

  When I receive the complete PDF I see all completed the fields and signatures, BUT I can also edit all the fields of the signed PDF.

  How can I prevent the PDF form signed being changed by the receiving person?

  Thank you very much.

  Ben

  Hi ben.beispiel,

  Right-click on the signature field. Go to the tab "Signed" in the "Digital Signature Properties" dialog box. The option 'Mark read-only' as shown below:

  

  This will avoid editing the PDF file that is signed by the recipient.

  Kind regards

• Cannot save the pdf form

  I have a user who is no longer able to save/overwrite pdf forms.

  Facts:

  1. It uses drive XI.
  2. The files on our server in a shared folder.
  3. He is able to save his changes in other programs files folder very well.
  4. Others save their changes/signatures to pdf even forms very well.
  5. When he created his signature first, he was able to save its changes for a few weeks.
  6. The problem is only on his PC - when it connects to another PC, it is able to save.
  7. The message he receives reports that it may be a file reading alone or that it is used by someone else - but is not, and he gets when it is opened from his PC.
  8. I tried to delete the signature in the drive.
  9. I tried to uninstall all Adobe programs (i.e., Flash, Reader, Shockwave and Air).

  Any suggestions? Thank you in advance for your help!

  Problem has been resolved.  I just had to disable the preview pane in the windows folder.

• Send a PDF form via HTTP Post: Newbie Questions

  Hello

  I am completely new to PDF forms, so I was finding the documentation and the overwhelming options.

  I'm hoping to get directed to the documentation/tutorials/examples that I really need.

  I want to build a 'proof of concept' for my boss.  I would like to include a screen in our webapp Java (JSP & spring) where either a PDF form is incorporated or is accessible via a link.

  I have

  • Standard Adobe Acrobat Distiller X license
  • Adobe Acrobat X Standard
  • Microsoft Office 2010

  I made a little, the form of Microsoft Word 3 field.  I then he converted via distill into a PDF form.

  I then found this document on how to submit a PDF form to a component side Server:

  http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/form-submit-e-mail-Demystified

  My big problem with this document, is not an example, nor an example of what is happening in an HTML page complete.   Because I I have a few questions:

  1. I see such an example somewhere?
  2. The result of the call to the javascript function doc. SubmitForm (urlToMyServerSideComponent) go in a script tag on the HTML page as other javascripts?
  3. Can I submit the function from an HTML button run or I put a button 'send' the PDF form?
  4. Do I need Adobe LiveCycle to create a PDF form with a button "submit"?  Free versions?
  5. Can I send via HTTP POST?
  6. Do I need Adobe LiveCycle to create a PDF form with a digital signature?
  7. Is there a document/tutorial that fits where I want to? (Please no books, I am tyring to show to my boss that this is something which can be done in a reasonable amount of time, no time to get and go through a book).

  Thanks in advance for things which make me pointed in the right direction

  Steve

  This seems to imply that I can do a such acroform without using an application or can I use an application with an option to write code by hand.  Am I wrong?  If yes could tell me on the document from the beginner to learn how to do this?    I have acrobat, but I don't have the 'send to server' option in the menu to distribute.

  No, you would use Acrobat to add the button and configure. As said earier, you want not to use distribute the form for this type of shape. Simply add a button on one of the pages of the PDF and give a mouse action upward to "submit a form":

  

  The video tutorial contains more information on the treatment of the submission on the server. Again, do not use the option to distribute the form in Acrobat.

• Help secure a PDF form.

  I created a PDF file in Acrobat X Pro and he embarked on a Web site. Everything works fine, however when I receive the form that a user has filled out, I'm able to edit their data. Is there a way to protect the form so once the user returns their data are secure and cannot be changed by the recipient?

  If you treat them to browse a web page by script, it is possible to 'flatten' the fields of PDF form and content so that they are not easily editable in the form of form fields.

  You could also use a field Signature for fields of locking when the PDF form is signed or use a script for the action to submit to lock the fields until the PDF is submitted.

  Hello RCDAWebmaster, filling out form unfortunately does not appear to be a high priority for the development of pdf.js at the moment and there is no ETA...
