4.2.1.6 Enabling Document Warning Review

Enabling document warning review allows signers to check document integrity prior to signing. The
document can be analyzed to determine if it contains any content that could adversely impact the
integrity of the signing process. For example, a document could contain JavaScript that could change a
data field before or after a signature is applied. Setting an option here affects what appears in the Prevent
Signing Until Document Warnings Are Reviewed drop-down list.
