Here is some requirements to do in order to use the feature:
1. You need up and running Oracle BI Scheduler. In order to run scheduler you need to create specific schema manually and deploy the database objects via Oracle BI Publisher.
2. It's required to add Oracle Security Developer Tools JARs to your application server (particullary, JARs which usually goes, for instance, with Oracle Client. Without JARs you're not able to use digital signature which cause stuck of scheduler job in Running state.
3. Create manually or use existing PFX (Personal Information Exchange) file with private and public key ((here is good explanation how to create PFX file manually: http://blogs.msdn.com/maximelamure/archive/2007/01/24/create-your-own-pfx-file-for-clickonce.aspx) and upload it as Digital ID in Oracle BI Publisher Admin Console. Give appropriate rights to user groups which are allowed to sign documents.
4. Create report in BI Publisher by uploading template with signature area. You can also manually add signature area in BI Publisher in report configure page.
5. Create a job to generate the report in BI Publisher Scheduler.
6. Once report succcessfully cooked you could download PDF with your digital ID.
