I am using iText 2.7.1 to generate an unsigned digital signature field in a pdf 
document. I then use Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) to view the pdf and everything 
appears correct visually, but when I attempt to digitally sign the document by 
clicking on the field, nothing happens. Here's my code snippet:

PdfAcroForm acroForm = pdfWriter.getAcroForm();
PdfFormField signatureField = PdfFormField.createSignature(pdfWriter);
signatureField.setWidget(new Rectangle(llx, lly, urx, ury), 
PdfAnnotation.HIGHLIGHT_INVERT);
signatureField.setFieldName("Signature 1");
signatureField.setPage();
acroForm.addFormField(signatureField);

Is there something I'm leaving out that would enable Adobe Reader to digitally 
sign the field with a click? Will iText 2.7.1 produce a signature field that is 
compatible with Adobe Reader X?

Thanks,

-Chris
