Digital signatures are used for electronic approval or certification of PDF documents. They can also be added to help protect against unauthorized modification and use.
To sign a document using Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader, you need to obtain a digital ID or create a self-signed digital ID in Acrobat. Our topic of the month takes a look at self-signed digital IDs in Acrobat and explores digital ID options.
Join our free eSeminar with Adobe Security Manager, John B. Harris and Adobe Principal Scientist, Phil Levy as they walk you through creating and managing digital signatures for use in secure PDF documents and forms.

JavaScript is the scripting language behind many of the interactive features in PDF as well as the primary tool for automating Acrobat.

These script locations in Acrobat represent one of the biggest differences between the models.
