Asymmetric encryption requires the recipients to use my public key to get access the documents, whereas symmetric encryption only requires them to key in the encryption key. Obviously the recipients who are not confident enough with using asymmetric encryption won't be able to verify the authentity of the documents, but this a least drawback. However, if I can't sign and encrypt in a single step, I'll sign and then symmetrically encrypt the signed document, or the other way around. I forgot to write that I want the process (sign and encrypt) to procede without any keyboard-typing.
