As you suggest in 3rd paragraph, below, I have a feeling the
whole "signing" procedure might be outside the scope of OO, and
you might need Adobe Acrobat Pro for that.
This said, a quick Internet search just brought up the following:
<https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/How_to_use_digital_Signatures>
?? :-)
Would be great if you could report back and let us know if that helped.
Cheers,

Hello,
I have a question about exporting word-processing documents as
PDFs; specifically, how do I enable the "signing" of documents
in Adobe Reader? That is, after I save a text document as a
PDF, I want to be able to use Adobe Reader to sign it.
Currently, if I use "export as PDF" and then open a document in
Adobe Reader, Document > Sign > Sign Document is greyed out,
and if I go to Document > Security > Show Security Properties,
I see that "signing" is "not allowed."
According to Adobe's documentation, "In Reader, only PDFs with
Reader Usage Rights enabled can be signed." How does one set
"Reader Usage Rights" when exporting an OpenOffice document as
a PDF? Or, must one have the full version of Adobe Acrobat in
order to create signable documents?
Finally (and, admittedly, this question is off-topic), where
can I get an inexpensive PDF-signing certificate so that when I
e-mail or upload a document that I've signed, the recipient
won't see an error message warning them that the document is self-signed?
Thank you,
Jonathan
