Since recipients do not have this certificate yet, they will not be able to validate your signature. Note: Signing the FDF will only be useful if you have a digital ID that the recipient has already trusted (uses a trust anchor OTHER than the one you are currently distributing). The FDF file recipients must also already have that digital IDs certificate so that they can validate your signature without relying on the certificate you are currently sending. This workflow is uncommon, but it does allow recipients to automatically inherit your predefined trust settings for the certificate embedded in the file. 11. Choose Next.
