Sign PDF documents locally and keep approval flows simple
Signing is a trust-sensitive workflow because signatures are personal, reusable, and easy to mishandle in weak tools.
Signing works best when the workflow stays simple: open the document, place the signature, and export the result without bouncing between tools.
