Hi Pablo,

First of all, my bad, the test suite example works just fine in Adobe,
including with ConTeXt latest.

I have messed up my form by overriding the PDF version to 2.0, shouldn't
have done that.

On the viewers, I cannot recall exactly what I've done earlier in the year,
but indeed, most likely I have tried evince after signing it from the
command line. From https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/-/issues/143 there
is still no support for the signing itself, though okular should have some
support.

In any case, thanks for the hints (I probably should've done more testing)!

Adam
