Build 42.1 is released and stable. It includes Digitally signing. Document --> Sign Document.

You can create your own Digital Certificate right in the program or import your own.

This makes me happy.

:-)

Hello. Thank you. I am really happy to have this feature... :D
...but I am suffering a problem, when I "sign" a document or "place a signature", that signature is always considered as "INVALID" for the XChange viewer.
I have tried different certificates that I have (issued by different CA), and I got always the same.
I have also tried to sign a PDF with other tools (eg. directly with PDFCreator or with jSignPdf), and then the XChange Viewer considers that signatures as valid (in some cases, warning that the certifcation path could not be verified).
Any idea?

BTW... what is the difference between the options "sign" and "place"?

Thakn you very much. Regards!

Can you send me (Ivan@tracker-software.com) any signed document where signature is marked as INVALID? For now we still not finished full validation of digi sigs and such files can be helpful for us.

About differences between sign and place: place allows you to create new signature field and sign it. Sing works by the following algorithm:
1. when there are no empty signature fields into the document sign works as place.
2. when there is only one unsigned signature field it starts to singing document using this fields (similar as you click on this field)
3. when there are more than one unsigned signature fields, it will show message to click on required field.

When attaching files to any message - please ensure they are archived and posted as a .ZIP, .RAR or .7z format - or they will not be posted - thanks.
