I am looking to add the path to adobe's dynamic stamps in the "Execute Menu option" section of a button. So far, there doesnt seem to be a path to naviagting to the stamp section in Adobe. I tried creating a cutom action but I am not able to attach the custom action to a button either. Thank you for your help! 🙂
What do you mean by "path"? Do you really mean that you want to use a Button form field on a PDF to Activate the application of a particular dynamic stamp?
This cannot be done using existing menu items.
However, a script can be used to apply a stamp.
Look at the doc.addAnnot() function in the Acrobat JavaScript Reference.
Thanks for responding! 🙂 I have to send out documents through Adobe Sign and I want the signer to be able to affix Adobe's Dynamic Stamp on the document. AdobeSign has a stamp function but it doesnt call Adobe's Dynamic Stamp function but intead asks users to upload a picture of the stamp. I was hoping to input a text field on the form with an action that executed a menu item (Affix Dynamic Stamp). Should I input the above script in a text field and will it replicate Adobe's Dynamic Stamp?
So, the Adobe Sign bit is pretty important to the issue at hand.
The answer is No, Adobe Sign is a different animal than PDF. Users do not interact with a Sign document through Acrobat. It's all online, controlled by the Adobe Sign Server.
When a PDF is uploaded to the Adobe Sign Service, it is converted to the Adobe Sign format. All scripts are lost and the Acrobat stamps are not available.
But perhaps there is something you could do.
Ask this question on the Adobe Sign forums. They'll know.
