Hello,

I have a question about exporting word-processing documents as PDFs; specifically, how do I enable the "signing" of documents in Adobe Reader? That is, after I save a text document as a PDF, I want to be able to use Adobe Reader to sign it.

Currently, if I use "export as PDF" and then open a document in Adobe Reader, Document > Sign > Sign Document is greyed out, and if I go to Document > Security > Show Security Properties, I see that "signing" is "not allowed."

According to Adobe's documentation, "In Reader, only PDFs with Reader Usage Rights enabled can be signed." How does one set "Reader Usage Rights" when exporting an OpenOffice document as a PDF? Or, must one have the full version of Adobe Acrobat in order to create signable documents?

Finally (and, admittedly, this question is off-topic), where can I get an inexpensive PDF-signing certificate so that when I e-mail or upload a document that I've signed, the recipient won't see an error message warning them that the document is self-signed?

Thank you,
Jonathan
