If you haven't utilized your digital signature, you can edit the appearance of a digital signature under Edit > Preferences > Security.However, if you've already utilized this particular signature, you should clear the signature first and then re-sign. The reason for this is that technically you're changing the document after it has been signed, which invalidates the process.

To clear a signature field, open the Signature Navigation Pane, right-click on the signature and select 'clear'. You can use the same Security Preference as mentioned above to add different appearances to your digital signature.
