Hello I'm signing a set of construction drawings with my digital certificate but after signing the first two pages it won't allow the "lock document after signing option"
I usually sign, save as, sign next page save as, sign next page save as and so on,

Hi Madelrio
We are sorry for the trouble. As described you are not getting the option to lock the PDF file after the digital sign.
We tried to reproduce the issue as per your workflow and its working fine as we are getting the option to lock the PDF after sign. As shown in the screenshot below.
What is the application and the version you are using? To check the version please go to Help > About Adobe Acrobat/Reader DC.
Make sure you have the latest version of the application Go to Help > Check for Updates.
If it still doesn't work, please try to repair the installation (For Windows Only) Go to Help > Repair Installation and see if that helps
If it still doesn't work, please try the following steps
Let us know how it goes.
Regards
Amal

I'm having the same or similar problem with Acrobat XI Pro. The "Lock Document After Signing" checkbox is sometimes not present on the dialog box.
In one particular file today, I could open and sign. However, if I touch any of the form fields prior to signing, there is no option to lock the document.
As a workaround, I resorted to adding a password restriction prior to signing the document.
