Using third-party digital IDs
When you certify, sign, or encrypt a document, you can use a third-party security method.
When you install a third-party signature provider, new menu commands may appear. Use
these commands instead of, or in addition to, the Manage Digital IDs commands. In
addition, a Third-Party Preferences submenu may appear on the Edit menu (Windows) or
on the Acrobat menu (Mac OS) so that you can change the provider's preference settings.
To specify a third-party security method:
1. If necessary, install a third-party signature provider.
2. Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Acrobat > Preferences (Mac OS), and then click
Security.
3. Click Advanced Preferences.
4. Choose the provider from the Default Method To Use When Signing And Encrypting
Documents menu, which lists all security methods installed in the Acrobat Plug-ins folder.
5. Click OK.
