    Save not working on 'Clear signature' in Acrobat 9!

    anaghad Community Member

      We have a custom Digital Signature plugin in which 'DSDoSave' and 'DSDoSaveAs' callbacks are implemented.

      In Acrobat 9 (Standard), we are able to craete the custom signature that gets saved/committed in the PDF.

       

      Next time when we open that PDF and select 'Clear Signature' option from the right-click context menu, the sign gets cleared off.

      When we click on 'Save', the 'DSDoSave' callback is executed which has this line:-

           ASBool bRetVal = CALL_REPLACED_PROC(gAcroViewHFT, AVDocDoSaveSEL, DSDoSave) (avDoc);

       

      So, it appears that the PDF is saved with the cleared signature, which infact isn't. When we open that PDF next time, it still contains the digital signature.

      However, if click on 'Save As' and save it as a new PDF, that one gets saved with the signature cleared which is as expected.

       

       

      Any ideas/suggestions on how to get the PDF saved with the cleared signature on 'Save click'?
