Question

Signature authentification failure

having a problem with authenticating signatures on documents that are downloaded as combined PDF. When a document is downloaded as a combined PDF along with the certificate of authentification, the signatures are not recognised by Adobe Acrobat. However, when I download the same document as a seperate PDF document from the certificate of authentification, the signatures are recognised and can be authenticated by Adobe Acrobe. 

For our purposes we need to download all documents as combined PDFs and signatures must be authenticated. Please help.

As I know the document should sign with DocuSign certificate after the envelope is completed whatever your select the method is separate or combined. but we find the document is not signed with DocuSign certificate when the Envelope is not completed and download it separate today. We also confuse why not sign it when download separate. And another finding is the certificate sign date is when the user download the document after the document is completed.
