Follow this guide to setup a digital signature in Adobe Acrobat.
There are two kinds of signatures in Acrobat. Fill & Sign will bring sign with an "Electronic Signature" which is essentially an image of your signature or some approximation of it. A digital signature is actually under the Certificates tool.
Step-by-step guide
- Open the Certificates tool.
- Click Digitally Sign. It will say to drag a box where you want to sign. So click and drag a rectangle in the proper place on the document
- If you have not done this before you will see this.
- If you have never done this before choose Create a new Digital ID. If you've done this before and know where your file is, choose the middle option, and find the certificate file.
- Choose Windows Certificate Store
- Fill out the form as I have. Key thing to watch is Organizational Unit comes before Organization Name. These fields are for identification, you do not need to get your PHR unit exactly right. Just do the best you can.
- You'll see this, and be all set to sign documents
