The created signed document can be used to create a digitally signed Adobe PDF/A which is shown in the next screenshot opened in Acrobat Reader:

As you can see in the upper left corner of the document, a unique document ID is added to the document. This ID is a string you provide to give you full flexibility when it comes to document workflow processes. A sample how this document ID can be utilized is the collection of multiple signatures from more signers:
