Announcing Publisher Identity — AATL OrgID & EU Advanced OrgID

We’ve launched Publisher Identity to pair with Publisher — Trusted PDF Sealing, so your organization can put your name in the certified signature seal using standards-based certificates for cleaner validation in Adobe Acrobat/Reader and along EU “Advanced” trust paths.

What’s in the launch

AATL OrgID: Organization-validated certificates recognized in Adobe’s trust ecosystem (AATL) for use with Publisher sealing. EU Advanced OrgID: Organization certificates suitable for EU “Advanced” trust paths (via EUTL-listed providers).

Why teams choose TS over DIY OV

  • Less hassle. We coordinate CA/RA steps (KYC, revalidation, evidence collection), track renewals, and handle lifecycle events—so your team doesn’t have to learn CA policy or chase paperwork.
  • Lower hidden costs. Avoid building/maintaining PKI workflows, HSM custody, audit trails, and trust-program nuance; use our standard process and support instead.
  • Consistent validation. We align sealing behavior with Adobe-documented validation (certification vs. approval signatures, DocMDP/FieldMDP, incremental updates) to help recipients see the right trust banners.
  • One vendor, clear terms. Single contract, predictable billing, and documented responsibilities (no-refunds for CA/trust-program actions are clear upfront).
  • Operational guardrails. Renewal reminders, compromise procedures, and audit-ready metadata (OCSP/CRL, optional RFC 3161 timestamps if you choose to enable LTV).

How it works

  1. Complete CA/RA onboarding with your org details and authorized contacts.
  2. Use the issued org certificate with Publisher to seal PDFs.
  3. Optionally include OCSP/CRL and RFC 3161 timestamps to support LTV where available.
