General ⇒ Avoid "Signature fields detected"

[Singularity]

This MWE gives me an unwanted green bar displaying "Signature field(s) detected".

Code: Select all

\documentclass[fleqn,reqno]{article}
\begin{document}
Also, set the %sign of the bigger factor 
\end{document}

This one does not

Code: Select all

\documentclass[fleqn,reqno]{article}
\begin{document}
Also, set the sign %of the bigger factor 
\end{document}

Seriously, I can't use the word "sign" in regular old body text without it affecting the document? I don't remember asking for a signature field. How do I get rid of it (short of using a thesaurus)?

Hi,

click on the button Open in writelatex just above your code. I don't see a green bar. Where should it come from?

How are you compiling? latex or pdflatex or ...

Could you post a screenshot so we have the slightest idea what could go wrong?

EDIT: This is an Adobe thingie, look at the commentary here. Adobe Reader and LaTeX are not a great team. Have a look at Sumatra Reader.

Best regards
Johannes

I'm compiling using TeXnicCenter, LaTeX => PDF. Attached is a screenshot.

Did you follow the link in my previous post?

... easily cleared just by clicking on the icon on the left end of the bilious green banner ...

If this happens everytime, seriously think about changing to Sumatra (also linked in my previous post).

By the way, you noticed that the green banner is not part of the pdf, did you?

Yup. I followed the link, but am not in a good place to try it right now. Will get to that later. In the meantime I answered the questions I could.

Thanks for the link (I should have also posted that). I am leery of modifying the registry, so it will take me a day or two get to it.
