electronic signature

more options

Firefox instructions for creating an electronic signature tell you to go to "Options" in the "tools" list, which I assume is the list under the three parallel lines in the upper right corner. There is no "Options" section in this list on my browser, either by itself or under one of the other categories in the list, or anywhere else that I can find on the browser website. So I can make no progress. Suggestions?

What instructions are you following?

Many versions ago, "Options" was renamed to "Settings". Many more versions ago, the page was reorganized.

(I actually can't think of where you would store an electronic signature, unless you mean that you have a personal certificate and you want to load it into your personal certificates through Firefox's Settings page.)

I had thought "Settings" might well be the successor to "Options". But a search did not find either "electronic" or "signature" in Settings. Nor does it find "certificate". Nor do those words seem to be in "More Tools" or in "Extensions". In other words for my purposes there is a complete blank under "Tools".

I live in Canada: perhaps the right software hasn't reached us yet?

What are the next steps for setting up the electronic signature? Does it involve importing a personal certificate? To find the Certificate Manager button (labeled "View Certifictes"), type cert in the very tiny search box at the top of the Settings page.
