Digital Signature automatically added

We sent out digital ID certificates to our organization for all authenticated users through Active Directory.

When we digitally sign a document, this is automatically shows up without us having to setup the digital ID. Is this normal behaviour? Does Adobe Reader DC automatically create a digital ID if there is a certificate for it in the Windows Certificate Store.

 

Intended usage of our certifcate is Digital Signature, Non-Repudiation, TimeStamping, Document Signing, Client Authentication

To my mind, "Windows Digital ID" means that it is showing you a certificate FROM the Windows certificate store. This is how signing is supposed to work - what seems wrong about it? I can't see that you would make Acrobat Digital IDs if your entirprise is already providing authenticated ones.
