XML signature in huge form

[horizon81]

Hi,

I have an eForm with 400+ fields. I have to apply XML signature on this form. For this, I have written following code on mousedown event of signature field:

var oSigs = xfa.signature.enumerate();

var iNum = oSigs.length;

if(iNum==0){

var oData = xfa.resolveNode("xfa.data.MainForm");

xfa.signature.sign(oData,"xfa.data.signatures", "Employer");

}

else if (iNum==1) {

for (var i=0; i < iNum; i++)

{

    var oChild = oSigs.item(i);

    xfa.signature.clear(oChild);

}

}

On applying XML signature it is taking too much time. In fact, sometimes I have to kill Adobe Reader process from Task Manager. Is it becuase of enormity of the form? The same scenario is working fine for smaller forms.

It would appear thatb the size of the form is at least part of the cause of the problem.  Is there a specific requirement to use an XML digital signature?  If you sign the form with a PDF digital signature does the performance improve?

Yes. XML signature is required in the form.

We have found out that this issue is there only in Adobe Reader 10. When tried on Adobe Reader 9 there was no issue. I have raised a ticket with Adobe Support but haven't got any reply yet. Till then we have downgraded our Adobe Reader to ver 9.

Can you give an example of how to add XML Signature to LiveCycle Form?

Is XML Signature different form Digital Signature Field?
