The document is locked after signing?

Once a document is signed. All the fields are locked? If not, can they be locked? And if they can be locked, can they be unlocked by an Admin only?

Hello RobLittke,

Once the document is designed, the document is secure and protected and it is not possible to edit or change its content (as well as the applied in form fields).

Kind regards

    Hi guys,.

    When you type information in a form in the DC or Pro Player I can enter text with fields of text etc and then save, close and return later to change the form. However once I use the function "Fill & Sign" to sign the document, and then save, it locks the file and all other fields become editable. Is there a way around this to remove this feature where it becomes locked and instead allows me to change the form after a signature is applied and saved. All the security properties of the form are on 'admitted', there is no restriction. Even though the document is locked all the properties remain still as 'authorized '.

    The signing is FINAL.  You cannot sign a PDF paper advance. Complete and save, do not sign.

    After a call, my smartphone Defy remains blocked for 30-45 seconds with the duration of the call in the middle of the screen. During this time the calls are not received, even if the person calling me, informed me that her phone rings.

  • Select "Lock Document after signing" by default

    My boss like the 'Lock after signing the Document' option in Acrobat X and plan to use it whenever he signs a document. So, is there a way to keep this box checked by default? I'm not anywhere in preferences, including at - it a registry key, that I can put?

    There is not a preference for it. It is possible to use initial values for fields of digital signature, which allows to create a toolbar or of custom menu point button that adds a digital signature field to a page with the values of seeds that would cause the document to be blocked when signed.

  • How to digitally sign a Document without locking

    Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to digitally sign my document and all comments I made on the document without locking (so you can always add pages and any alterations/comment on the document but not my comments).

    I do a lot of store critical construction design where I review and sign the HTML documents before them ranging from consultants for review. When the consultants review the drawings, they add a page of their own observations. When this happens, my digital signature is removed (understanably like this: the document has changed).

    Essentially, what I'm looking for is a hybrid between stamp options and digital signatures, where I can put my 'Shop drawings considered' stamp on the drawings and lock all comments (supervised, arrows, etc), course of edition.

    I am currently using Acrobat Pro XI on Windows 7.

    I was just commenting that it would be nice to see a function like 'add a stamp '.

    There is such a feature... Click the stamp tool, and then select Custom Stamps - create custom stamps. You can even create dynamic stamps with fields that may contain user input, but it's a more advanced task.

  • Install VISTA SP2 - all my old documents are "locked by another user.

    I used Windows update to install the Vista SP2 and now all my existing documents came as "locked by another user", or in the case of older documentation and worksheets in read-only or corrupt.  The docs are very good, I can copy it to another machine and they work.  In addition, the file attributes are NOT marked read-only.  Any ideas?  I was going to cancel, but the restoration of the system shows no point of restoration before the update, even if I manually created a Saturday.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi tearnott,

    Thank you for using answers Forum.

    Have you tried creating a new user as suggested by Debbie?

    I found this on the desktop support site:
    http://Office.Microsoft.com/en-us/Word/HA011406121033.aspx

    If you cannot make changes to a document, your Word program cannot be enabled, the document can be locked for editing or protected by password, or you could try to modify a document or text in a protected form.

    Note   You cannot edit an open document in Word Viewer, but you can copy text to the Clipboard to paste into other applications.

    This command is not available because the document is locked for editing

    If you see the following message when you try to modify a document in Word 2003 or Word 2002: "this command is not available because the document is locked for editing" your Word program can not be activated. To check, follow these steps:

    • On the help menu, click Activate Product .

      If Word is enabled, a message tells you that the product has already been activated. If Word is not enabled, the Office Activation Wizard appears to guide you through the activation process.

    Note   You can open a Word document, even if the program is not activated, but you cannot use many commands and you cannot save the document.

    The document is locked for editing by another user

    If you see the following message when you try to modify a document in Word 2000 or Word 2002: "the document is locked for editing by another user," Word previously might have shut down improperly while the file is still open.

    The document can also be locked from editing if the original version of the document is already open, or if the document is shared over a network and another user opened. This applies to Word 2000, 2002 and 2003.

    Note   If the Group similar taskbar buttons is selected, the original version of the document can be open without your realizing it. Click Word in the Windows task bar to see the names of all the Word documents that are open.

    Your document is protected by a password

    If the owner of the protected the document with a password (including a blank password), you might be limited to read-only access unless you enter the password. If you forget or lose a password, you cannot change the document.

    This modification not allowed because the document is locked

    If you see this message at the bottom of the application window when you try to modify a document: "This unauthorized change because the document is locked," the document is protected by a restriction of amendment no changes (read only) or comments in Word 2003 (or a restriction of comments in Word 2002 and Word 2000). The author of the document to restrict editing features to protect the Document. Menu commands may also be unavailable, depending on the permissions granted to your by the author of the document.

    Note   When you open a document protected by Information Rights Management (IRM) in Word 2003, you might have permission to view the document but not to change it. When you open the document, the Office shared workspace pane opens by default on the right side of the application window. In the task pane, click View My permissions to see your permissions.

    I hope this helps. Chris

  • Document text for After effect Cs4

    For the start, want to try Animatin text but could not created the text document.

    When I created the text in Photoshop and import to After Effects, then it will show "transform" not "text".

    How can I create the document text for After Effects...?

    Thanks for reading and the little help please

    Creating text in legacy is really easy.

    Create a new publication

    Go to layer > new > text.

    Write what you want.

    You can animate text by using transformation options, or you can apply the animation presets that are really cool.

  • After that update to Firefox 8, the secure gold lock that appears in the corner, when signing to websites is gone

    Hi, I would like to know that when I sign in the Bank or other sites requiring a password that the site is secure. Firefox used to have a small lock gold down in the corner of the right hand to let you know that you signed in a secure site. After the upgrade to Firefox 8, that the lock is gone. How do you know if the page you log on is secure?

    The status bar is gone and the 'blocking' with her, from Firefox 4.0. Safety information on a web page are shown by the Site identity button.

    The former lock could give users a false sense that a site is safe to not to provide information to the site and showed that there is a secure connection that does not guarantee that you are connected to the right server. The Site identity button is introduced in Firefox 3.0 to show more complete information of 'identity' for HTTPS web pages.

    I started to use the "recall" function but the notice that they always come out after that documents have been signed and deposited. Anyone know if this is a bug (I saw some forum posts where reminders are sent after a document has been cancelled) or is it a setting I'm missing?
