How do I replace the background logo of a signature certificate in windows 10? Trying to replace the trifoil log with my own.

I have seen the post on how to do this on other OS's but I can't figure out how to do it in windows 10.

    What you're asking about is also called a watermark, as opposed to a signature appearance. See section 2.2.2.2 of the following document: http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/DigSig/Acrobat_DigSig_WorkflowGuide.pdf

    In short, you have to create a PDF (named SignatureLogo.pdf) of the watermark and install in a particular location on the system.

    I have my logo saved in the correct file location:

    C:\Users\D3476421\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\2017\Security

     

    But for some reason I only get the Adobe logo:

    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Can you respond with the location for an Acrobat Pro DC user? The folder hierarchy doesn't seem to follow your post sequence.
