PDF Signature Password

At my work, we have the Adobe Acrobat X Pro.  One of my employees came to me about the Signature Password, asking how she can change it.  The only thing I found about a Signature password is the Digital ID.  I gave her the instructions to change that, but when she goes to Edit and then Preferences, there is no Signature Option.  I even went there on my computer, the entire S section consists of Search, Security, Security (Enhanced) and Spelling.

 

When she has Acrobat open, she clicks on Tools, goes to Sign & Certify and then Place Signature, and uses that to place a Signature.  If there is no Signature section within the Preferences, how can she change the password?

Acrobat X is old, and because of that, the information you find about how to do something in a recent version of Acrobat will not necessarily apply. You would find the digital Ids when you expand "Protection" on the right hand pane, then select "More Protection>Security Settings". Under the category Digital ID Files, you should now find the ID. However, as far as I know, you cannot change the password. That is applied when the ID is created. One option is to create a new ID with a new password.
