Dynamic stamp with personal signature and date/time

[Jubilant_hands5E12]

Hi,
Does anybody know how to create a personized dynamic stamp with signature and date/time in one?
Thanks

Yes, but the signature will be just an image (or test), not a real Digital Signature, if that's what you mean.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, i work in engineering design and often send out multiple plans (merged pdf drawings) that all require signing. We find it difficult and time consuming to digitally sign each one and are now looking to digitally sign the first, then stamp sign the rest. Hoping the stamp could have signature and date/time stamp all in one. The custom stamp options dont appear to provide option.  Or can you think of a more streamlined solution? Thanks for your time.

This is a common misconception about digital signatures. There's absolutely no need to sign each page separately.

If you sign the first page (or any other page) using a digital signature it will apply for the entire file as a whole.

Also, these signatures already contain the name of the person who signed them as well as the date and time they were signed. You can even set them to display an image of a hand-written signature, if you wish, but signing each page is not needed at all, nor is it desirable and it will cause the file-size to balloon and the file itself to become less stable.

Thanks. I agree it only needs one digital signature. Our clients require the each page to atleast appear signed when printed (whether digitial or not). Do you know how to create a personized dynamic stamp with signature (non digital) and date/time in one? Thanks

Sure. You can use a dynamic stamp for this. If you hard-code the signature as an image it won't be too complicated. You can copy the field with the date, time and even user-name from one of the built-in Dynamic stamps that come with Acrobat.
