Questions about signing a PDF
- Is a visual signature the same as a digital signature?
- No. A visual signature is a mark placed on the page. A certificate-based digital signature uses cryptography to verify identity and document integrity, which VixPDF does not provide.
- Can I draw a signature or use an image?
- Yes. Draw in the signature panel or choose a signature image, then move and resize the result on the intended page.
- Does VixPDF store my signature?
- No signature database is created. The visual mark stays in the current browser editing session and becomes part of the PDF you export.
