Is there a way for Revu to import security certificates/Digital IDs from Adobe Acrobat?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hi all, my company is in the midst of converting from Adobe Acrobat to Revu, and I wanted to be able to sign documents using the same Digital ID I have used. It seems that Acrobat can only export certificates to FDF or PKCS#7 (pk7) files, and Bluebeam can only import PKCS#12 (pfx) files. Is there a feature within Bluebeam that would allow me to use the same ID?

As far as I know, Adobe's Digital ID is not compatible with Bluebeam. I sometimes have to sign Adobe PDF's that have already been signed by others. Hours of searching have told me that I just have to use a PDF reader that is compatible with Adobe's Digital IDs. I don't remember all the lingo and such, but I remember the point was that I was out of luck with trying to keep myself to just one PDF viewer.

pdf and editing text
Hi all. I am a relatively new user to Revu(CORE).
