Yes, but you will need to install a script on the local machine of each user, and they'll still have to manually enter a file-name to save the file after signing it. Only after that will your script execute...

install a script on the local machine of each user,

you mean that i have to install the script on each computer ? not only in the file ?

 

they'll still have to manually enter a file-name

so i can not make it automatically takes from text filed value in the file ? 

if no ? even if without singing the signature filed ?

- Correct

- You can, but only after the user saved the file manually under any name they want. After that you could re-save it using a value from a text field. If you don't want it to be connected to a signature field you can add a Save button to your file that will do it completely silently.
