I have a PDF form to fill in and sign with a Digital ID/signature. Can I do this in the free Reader DC or must I get the Pro version?

I have been informed by the recipient that inserting an image of my handwritten signature is not sufficient and I must use a digital ID.

Thanks for your time and any info.

Hi AdobeBoardRoom,

You should be able to create and use Digital ID in Adobe Reader DC, depending on the document's properties on which you are working on.

You may refer to Digital IDs in Acrobat DC and Certificate-based signatures, Adobe Acrobat DC

If you are unable to create the "Digital ID's" then you may right click on the document>document properties>security and check whether you are allowed to add signature or not.
