I went through steps 1-9, but Acrobat crashes every time on step 10 after setting up the ID and drawing the square to place the signature. I set up the ID I using the same name as the one in Step 4. Maybe that’s the problem? But when I tried starting over, the same thing happens.Where does the ID file reside? Can I delete it manually? Using Acrobat 8 Pro on Mac OS 10.5.8.

Your instructions are terrible. They are inconsistent with the commands in Adobe Pro 8.1. Very confusing. I just want my non-secure signautre on the bottom line of Word and .pdf documents. There’s got to be a better way!

Hello everyone

This website is really great. Thanks to your explanation, I managed to sign my Acrobat form very easily !!

But, you forgot a step between step 9 and 10 for those who don’t have any digital identity yet: a page opens when you place your digital signature (step 9): here you have to click on ” create a self-signed digital ID for use with Acrobat “(I use Acrobat 8 Pro), then you choose between “new file” and “Windows certificate store”. You fill in the required fields (name and email address are compulsory fields) and then you can choose a password and your file location.
In any case, I have done like that and it worked, I hope it will help future visitors of this website.

PS: I am French so sorry for the mistakes, if any…

Hi,

I haven’t so far found the ability to sign multiple documents in Adobe. For those who are finding it hard to digital sign many PDF ( in hundreds or more) document do try PDF Sign&Seal which lets you to right click as many PDF and then select sign option to digital sign all PDF documents. You can even apply signature on all of the pages. On top of this you can customize the signature appearance with its built in signature appearance editor.
Has a built in viewer too.

You can download from here: http://www.ascertia.com/Products/pdfsignseal/Default.aspx?m=menudocsign&s=pdfss

Under ADVANCED, select SECURITY SETTINGS; on the left of the window Expand the DIGITAL IDs, then select WINDOWS Digital IDs. You should see your Digital ID in the main window. This way I created a new ID but could not delete the old ID…i just let it sit there
