To sign a document, you must obtain a digital ID or create a self-signed digital ID in Acrobat. The digital ID contains a private key that is used to add the digital signature, and it contains a certificate that you share with those who need to validate your signature.

Go to [url=http://www.verisign.com]www.verisign.com[/url] and purchase a Digital ID (cost about $19.95). Once purchased, it will install in a secure location on your hard drive. It can then be used in Acrobat to digitally sign your doc.

My favorite quote - "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.

thanks for the prompt response, since you had given two options 1st obtain a digital ID for which details have been posted & 2nd create a self signed digital ID in acrobat for which you have not posted the details. Kindly post details for the 2nd option - I would like to create my own digital ID.
