Hi everybody,

 

I hope someone can explain the function "Permitted actions after certifying".

 

 

 

This function is shown then a few guys in my company try to certificate a pdf with a digital signature, but I personally can't simulate this situation. If I try the same, I never see this Option, I only can click "Sign".

 

In which situation will this be shown? Is it possible to deactivate this function? I'm sorry for asking, but I searched so long in internet, I can't find good informations about this "phenomenon". Thanks a lot.

Even in Acrobat DC I couldn't reproduce this options at the digital signature. How could this options been shown? What is the reason for this?

Ich see the same as you, but until now I only used "Digitally Sign". Know I tried the point "Certify", and now I can see the options.

 

But please tell me a another question. Now then I see the options, I am obligated to make the "Review", but I can swear I wasn't obligated to make the review unter Acrobat 2017. Is this a new function and can I "disable" this duty?


I don't know.
