    Post Save Report as PDF to be able to digitally sign the report in acrobat reader

    Good Day.

    I need to save/export a report to pdf but the pdf document need to be digitally signed from acrobat reader.

    When I use the default export to pdf function in a macro and I open the pdf document in acrobat reader it does not have the security feature enabled to be digitally signed.

    Is there someone who have done something similar who can please assist me.

    I have code that manipulates PDF to insert and remove pages. This requires VBA to open PDF file as an object and then managing properties of that object. https://www.accessforums.net/access/...pdf-25574.html

    So manipulating the PDF to set for digital signature might be possible.

    Bing: access vba pdf digital signature

    Only thing I can find with any code https://forums.adobe.com/thread/833924?start=0&tstart=0

    I don't think it can be done w Adobe Reader. You may need the Writer.
