Hi Brent

I haven't tried these, but there are a couple of digital signature plugins available that work with graphics tablets they supply.

I got the impression that the one supplied by www.topazsystems.com has an API with their which allows you to capture a signature image, but not necessarily embed it as a digital signature. Like I said, haven't tried it, but might be worth a shot.

Alun,

Thanks for the suggestion.

However, I didn't include enough info, as that approach would not work in
this particular situation. The signatures that are being collected are from
unknown people, customers, whose signatures we can't pre-load on the system,
otherwise I'd use the built in Digital signature feature of PDF's.

I appreciate the feedback.

Brent

It's possible to make your own custom annotation stamp in Acrobat. If
you make your signature as an annotation stamp you can then stamp that
anywhere you like.

signatures and PDF's ?


    Digitized/electronic signatures aren't anything special to
Acrobat - they are just a raster image like any other.



The Digital signatures are well covered in the documentation, and we

have


created a Visual Basic application that captures Digitized signatures,

but


I'm having trouble finding information on doing it within a PDF.



    What version of Acrobat is the user using?  Full Acrobat or
only Reader?

Are you looking to automate this process for the user?
