          SECTION 8.6                                                                Interactive Forms



KEY                TYPE         VALUE

TimeStamp          dictionary   (Optional; PDF 1.6) A time stamp dictionary containing two entries:
                                   URL       An ASCII string specifying the URL of a time-stamping server,
                                             providing a time stamp that is compliant with RFC 3161, Internet
                                             X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Time-Stamp Protocol (see the Bib-
                                             liography).
                                   Ff        An integer whose value is 1 (the signature is required to have a
                                             time stamp) or 0 (the signature is not required to have a time
                                             stamp). Default value: 0.

LegalAttestation   array        (Optional; PDF 1.6) An array of text strings specifying possible legal attesta-
                                tions (see Section 8.7.4, “Legal Content Attestations”). The value of the corre-
                                sponding flag in the Ff entry indicates whether this is a required constraint.

AddRevInfo         boolean      (Optional; PDF 1.7) A flag indicating whether revocation checking should be
                                carried out. If AddRevInfo is true, the viewer application performs the follow-
                                ing additional tasks when signing the signature field:
                                • Perform revocation checking of the certificate (and the corresponding issu-
                                  ing certificates) used to sign.
                                • Include the revocation information within the signature value.
                                A value of true is relevant only if SubFilter is adbe.pkcs7.detached or
                                adbe.pkcs7.sha1. If SubFilter is x509.rsa_sha1, this entry must be omitted or
                                set to false; otherwise, the signature process may fail.
                                If AddRevInfo is true and the Ff entry indicates this is a required constraint,
                                then the tasks described above must be performed. If they cannot be per-
                                formed, then signing must fail.
                                Default value: false

Ff                 integer      (Optional) A set of bit flags specifying the interpretation of specific entries in
                                this dictionary. A value of 1 for the flag indicates that the associated entry is a
                                required constraint. A value of 0 indicates that the associated entry is an op-
                                tional constraint. Bit positions are 1 (Filter); 2 (SubFilter); 3 ( V); 4 (Reasons); 5
                                (LegalAttestation); 6(AddRevInfo); and 7(DigestMethod). Default value: 0.
