Digital Signatures With Acrobat

(OP)
I am interested in pursuing digital signatures on design documents with Adobe Acrobat. I have the professional version of Adobe Acrobat on both Windows and Mac computer. I have also purchased a Verisign certificate to facilitate streamlined authentication. I can't seem to get the two tied together and have not been able to find a successful step-by-step instruction for doing so. Has anyone else succeeded with this and could you point me to some instructions for doing so?

I have been able to sign digitally using the user created certificate(s) through Adobe, which is quite nice, but it requires authentication of every signature by the receiver. Apparently, when you digitally sign using Adobe's user created certificate, the certificate is unique for each time you place a signautre. That is, when I send a pdf plan set with 60 sheets to someone, they have to go through 60 times and authenticate the signature certificate. My understanding is that the verisign certificate will only require a single authentication.

Thanks in advance.
