Hi,

With the current 10.1.4 release, the functionality of the "Done Signing" button has been changed, to ensure that it only gets enabled once the PDF has been signed i.e. User must place an eSignature first to be able to do "Done Signing". 

Can you please see if you are actually signing the Document (by the Place Signature button in the Sign panel), prior to trying to click on Done Signing.

Thanks

Ankit

It's interesting. I imagine Adobe never imagined people would ever use this button except when they had signed a document. That's how programmers think: they would never click a "Done X" button unless they had indeed done "X".

Some people might have assumed that "Done signing" by itself signed a document and got in trouble that way. So they are now protected, and should actually be signing it.

I'm curious what the workflow is that people were setting up. What were the end users expected to do?

Ok... but why are they sending "signable" forms instead of just savable forms? Or is it the same thing?

Well if you do not want to make the form editable, signing it is one solution. Flattening it is another. Enabling Security like password protection or DRM is yet another. The problem with your workflow is that you were using it for an unintended purpose. Now you have been bitten by the changes. As a faculty member, I frequently flatten files that I do not want changed. Can people really change them, of course, but those changes are easy to detect. If you want grades to be official then signing them makes sense. That is one some universities do with digital signatures. But signing without signing, was asking for trouble. It is too easy to be bitten by the rule of unintended consequences.

By the way, if the document is signed without being signed are you sure it cannot be unsigned?
