Hello everyone:

I have read Javascript for Acrobat API Reference (8.0) and I'm still wondering how SignatureClear() works. Is it possible to clear a signature field with this? How? It is said that you can not work with it in Adobe Reader... but I have seen some other functions working despite of the Availability column: is it possible to use it in Reader?

Code examples will be very appreciated.

Regards,

This is a method for removing the signature from an FDF file. The FDF file is not used by LiveCycle Designer forms. The JavaScript API Reference has it marked as not being available to Reader. Note there are also some security restrictions on the use of this function.
