What's NewFill and Sign• The Sign Pane was renamed to Fill & Sign and the three related panels were unified in this single view. Form fill-in and signing workflows are made more usable since the forms tools now appear along with the signing tools.
• In Reader, the Fill & Sign Pane automatically opens when form fields are present.
• The tool logic is enhanced so that form fill-in is always possible even if another tool is selected. Starting a typing action simply deselects other tools.
• Enterprise configuration via registry and plist preferences:
- HKCUs AVAlert\bDonotShowFSSWarningDlg set to 1 disables the Fill & Sign Alert dialog which appears when a user tries to use the service with a dynamic XFA form. Dynamic forms are currently unsupported.
- HKLMs cServices\bEnableSignPane set to 0 removes the Fill & Sign Pane from the user interface.
- HKCUs Workflows\bEnableAcrobatHS services master switch disables all features of the Fill & Sign Pane except for the Work with Certificates accordion. When forms are opened, the Fill & Sign Pane does not auto open.
