Frequently Asked Questions

When would I remove signatures from a PDF?
When a previously signed file is being reused as a working draft, template basis, or internal sample and the old signature marks are no longer appropriate.
Does this create a valid legal replacement for the original?
No. It creates a working copy, not a substitute for the original signed record.
Should the original signed copy still be kept?
Yes. Teams should preserve the original signed version separately for recordkeeping and audit purposes.
