    Default How to avoid the prompt when verifing signature?

    I sign the doc with my cert.
    The cert is not trusted by Acrobat/Reader itself so when i try to verify the signature Acrobat/Reader will prompt the user cert is not trusted.

    My question is how to avoid this prompt through Acrobat SDK or how to add my cert to trusted cert list through Acrobat SDK?

    Thanks.

    Another question:
    I found that if there is a certificate that can not be BER decoded by Acrobat/Reader in my windows certificate store,then will cause Acrobat/Reader verify signature failer even if the cert in the doc is trusted.

    It seems that When verifying the signature Acrobat will check the windows cert store,if the cert in the store is not correct it will cause verify failure.

    Then how avoid this problem?

    Thanks.

    That should only be the case if the cert is necessary to validate (aka it's in the chain).

    The cert is created by Acrobat and is self signatured,it also is a root cert.so i think it has no cert chain.
    Also the cert in the windows store has no relation with the cert in the doc.

    You will also see the BER Decoding error when you have a self-signed peer-to-peer cert in your Windows Cert Store, even if it is not the signature you are using to sign.

    Start > Run > certmgr.msc
    Look for any certs that have "peer-to-peer" in the Intended Purpose column
    Remove that cert
    Restart Acrobat

    Give that a shot.

    PDL:
    What is peer-to-peer cert?

    If that is a cert that should be located on client and copy of that cert located on server?

    If my Decoding error caused by peer-to-peer cert in my windows store,how can i to avoid this other than remove it?

    Does Acrobat/Reader not support X509 v3 extend infomation?

    My cert include some extend infomation,I found that if i exclude these info the signature can be verified by reader.
    But if i include these infomation Reader will prompt the user BER Decodig error.
