When you select a signature
field, the Field tab in the Object palette displays several options
for formatting signature fields.
TypeSets
the type of object. Objects are the building blocks of every form.
CaptionSets
a caption for the object.
Note: Caption is a dynamic
property. Dynamic properties are identified by active labels that
have a green underline that you can click to dynamically bind the property
to a data source. To turn active labels on and off, use the Show
Dynamic Properties command in the Object palette menu. See Dynamically populate a caption.
AppearanceSets
the border style for the fillable area of the field:
- None
- Does not display a border around the field.
- Underlined
- Underlines the field.
- Solid Box
- Displays a solid border around the field.
- Sunken Box
- Creates a shadow around the field so that the field looks
three-dimensional.
- Custom
- Opens the Custom Appearance dialog box. Select this option
if you want to define a custom look for the fillable area.
PresenceControls
whether an object is displayed in a PDF form when users view the
form in Acrobat or Adobe Reader, or when users print the form:
- Visible
- The object is visible on-screen, visible in the printed form,
and occupies space in the form layout. Visible is the default presence
setting for all objects.
- Visible (Screen Only)
- The object is visible on-screen, not visible in the printed form
when printed from within Acrobat or Adobe Reader, and occupies space
in the form layout.
- Visible (Print Only)
- The object is not visible on-screen, visible in the printed form
(when printed from within Acrobat, Adobe Reader, or directly from
the server), and occupies space in the form layout.
- Invisible
- The object is not visible on-screen, not visible in the printed
form, and occupies space in the form layout.
- Hidden (Exclude from Layout)
- The object is not visible on-screen, not visible in the printed
form, and does not occupy any space in the form layout.
- One-sided Printing Only
- The object is only printed when using single-sided printing.
- Two-sided Printing Only
- The object is printed when using double-sided printing. This
option is useful when you want to place the page number in a different
corner of the page when using double-sided printing than when using single-sided
printing.

or region. You can select a specific language and country from the
list, or you can specify one of these options:
- Default Locale

the Form Properties dialog box.
- Viewer’s System Locale

Note: Locales in the Locale list are organized first
by language and then by country or region.
