Validating digital signatures
Set your verification preferences in advance. This helps ensure that Digital Signatures are valid when you open a PDF
and verification details appear with the signature. See
Set signature verification preferences

Additional status details appear in the Signatures panel and in the Signature Properties dialog box.
