Acrobat 9 Family of Products Security Feature User Guide Figure 127 Emailing your certificate Migrating and Sharing Security Settings Importing Application Settings with FDF Files 166 10.2.3.2 Importing Someone's Certificate You can use an FDF file to import someone's certificate into your list of trusted identities. This enables you to validate their signature and encrypt documents with their public key so only that intended recipient can open it. Tip: Importing this information ahead of time enables you to configure your trusted identities list before needing to validate a signature or encrypt a document for someone. To add someone's certificate to your list of trusted identities: 1. Click on the FDF file or from Acrobat or Adobe Reader choose File > Open. The digital ID certificate may be sent directly from Acrobat as an email attachment or may reside in a networked directory. 2. Review the sender's information when the Import Contact dialog appears. Note: If the file is signed, then the Import Contact dialog will also have a Signature panel as shown in Figure 129. Figure 128 Certificates: Contact Information
