Digital Signature Appearance

PDF Studio allows you to customize the appearance of a digital signature to display only specific information that you choose. Multiple appearances can be created for different situations if needed. Created appearances can be used on any digital ID. Additionally, an image can be used for the signature appearance.

Note: Altering a signature's appearance does not remove any of the details from the signature.
