I think he means a new digital ID/cert for signing (which I have no idea how or if you could do that).

Each user can create a digital ID for signing and certifying PDF files. The data for these ids is stored in a separate data file and this file can be shared or moved to other computers or stored on a USB flash or a network drive.

Are you providing the pre-made ID? Do you have total control over those computers (like on a Windows domain)? If so, maybe you can install the IDs and then maybe George can tell us where that file is and you can lock that file down?

There is plenty of information at [url=http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/security.php]Acrobat Developer Security and Digital Signatures[/url] page.

My plan is to create the IDs before hand, then when the users signs the doc, they drill down to a pre-determined location on a file server and select their assigned ID. The only problem is when the user click the signature field, an option comes up and gives them the option to choose a preselected key, or create a new one. I need them to not be able to create a new one.

I found the answer. If you add this reg key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\9.0\Security\cPubSec]
"bSelfSignCertGen"=dword:00000000

Then the user cant create a new digital ID, but they can use existing. Thanks for your replies!
