Foxit PhantomPDF Quick Guide

Time stamps are used to specify the date and time you signed a document. A trusted time
stamp proves that the contents of your PDFs existed at a point-in-time and have not
changed since then. Foxit PhantomPDF allows you to add a trusted time stamp to digital
signatures or documents.
Before adding a time stamp to digital signatures or documents, you need to configure a
default time stamp server. Go to File > Preferences > Time Stamp Servers, and set a
default time stamp server. You can then sign the document by placing the digital signature,
or by clicking Protect > Time Stamp Document to add a time stamp signature to the
document. You need to add the time stamp server into the trusted certificate list so the
properties of digital signatures will display the date/time of the time stamp server when
the document was signed.
To add a trusted time stamp server to the Trusted Certificates list, click Timestamp
Properties in the lower left corner of the Signature Properties dialog box. In the pop-up
Timestamp Properties box, click Add to Trusted Certificates. If a time stamp signature
was added in the document, you can right-click the timestamp signature in the Digital
Signature panel and choose Show Signature Properties. In the pop-up Signature
Properties dialog box, click Add to Trusted Certificates.
Quick PDF Sign
Quick PDF Sign enables you to create your self-signed signatures and add the signatures
to the page directly. You don’t need to create different signatures for different roles. With
the commands in the Sign group under the Fill & Sign tab, create your own handwritten
signature and sign the document.
To manage the created signatures, do the following:
In the Sign group under the Fill & Sign tab, click on the lower right corner of the
signature palette and choose Manage Signature from the drop down menu. In the
Manage Signature dialog box, you can create, move and delete the created signatures,
and set password for them.
Redaction (Available in Business Only)
The Redaction feature allows you to remove sensitive information from your document
prior to making it available to others. You are able to mark the text or graphics for
redaction first, and then apply the redaction to the current page or multiple pages.
Alternatively, you can use the Whiteout feature to remove the content permanently and
replace it with white background with one click.
