If necessary, install a third-party signature provider.

Click Advanced Preferences, and click the Creation tab.

Specify the default digital ID
Before you certify, sign, or encrypt a PDF, you may be prompted to select a digital ID file. To avoid being prompted
repeatedly, you can select a digital ID to use every time you sign or certify a document.
1 Choose Document > Security Settings.
2
Click Digital IDs on the left, and then select the digital ID you want to use as the default.
3 Click the Usage Options button , and choose a task for which you want the digital ID as the default. If you want
to specify the digital ID as the default for two tasks, click the Usage Options button again and select a second option.
A checkmark appears next to selected options. If you select only the signing option, the Pen icon appears next to
the digital ID. If you select only the encryption option, the Lock icon appears. If you select only the certifying
option, or if you select the signing and certifying options, the Blue Ribbon icon appears.
To clear a default digital ID, repeat these steps, and deselect the usage options you selected.
Change a digital ID’s password and timeout
Passwords and timeouts can be set for PKCS #12 IDs and Windows Personal Certificates. If the PKCS #12 ID
contains multiple IDs, you must configure the password and timeout at the file level.
