    How to sign a PDF.

    1. Print the PDF onto paper.

    2. Sign the paper version.

    3. Scan the paper to a PDF.

    Yeah, I know it’s stupid but I did it 4 times this week for vendors. I do save some paper by getting a double sided scanner.

    Internally all of my business activities use electronic signatures not in pdf’s.

      Yeah, I hate “digital signatures” in PDFs. Oh, you wrote your name, scanned it to a jpeg and pasted it onto the (supposedly) uneditable PDF that I sent you, potentially rendering the document invalid? Thanks.
