Configuring Adobe reader Mac Catalina
Description
In the new Catalina (Mac OS 15), user certificates are not loaded into KeyChain Access, so you need to configure Adobe to work directly with your smart card. This is done by adding the cryptographic module to your card.
Attaching a hardware cryptographic module
1. From menu Adobe Reader choose Preferences.
2. Choose category Signatures and click More from section Identities & Trusted certificates.
3. Click on Digital IDs and choose PKCS#11 Modules and Tokens.
4. Press the button Attach module and enter the path to the library for your smart card. You can copy and paste from the information below.
