Foxit Approved trusted List, comes enabled by default in Foxit PDF Editor. No actions needed here.

We recommend enabling the following GPO settings as well:

  • Enable creating self-signed digital IDs: by disabling this option you will forbid the end-users' ability to create their own Digital ID.
