Hi Ian,

I now see that you are referring to a hand-drawn signature rather than a digital signature.

I have reworked the example to include fields: https://acrobat.com/#d=3-9PHIOZg4iBeLtwsJbLHw

I guess you are familiar with importing and exporting data from within Acrobat:

If you are dealing with comments drawn using the Ink Tool, then you can import and export these separately using the Comments menu:

Acrobat exports the comments as an "fdf" file, whcih can then be imported into another form.

So if you form has data and comments the export and import will be a two-step process.

While you can script a button to export/import the XML data, I don't think you can do the same for comments. I tried:

app.execMenuItem("Annots:ExportToGeneralFileMenu");

but it did not work.

Hope that helps,

Niall
