Troubleshooting Sign PDF
Is a drawn signature legally valid?
In most jurisdictions an electronic signature is binding for ordinary agreements. Some documents — wills, certain property deeds — still require a handwritten signature or a notary.
Can the signature be moved after signing?
Flatten the PDF after signing to merge the signature into the page so it cannot be repositioned or removed.
