How a pdf can be signed using workbench

Workbench is the development tool for creating LiveCycle ES2 processes.  To sign a PDF on the server side (in an automated fashion) you need to have LiveCycle Digital Signatures ES2

How to sign entire pdf

When a digital signature is applied to a PDF, the entire PDF is "signed".  You cannot sign specific pages or sections.

How to sign/block only few fields in the pdf

You can specify "field collections" when creating a PDF with Adobe Designer.  You then associate the field collection with a particular signature field.  When the signature field is signed, the associated field can\will be locked.

Hope this helps
