Heh. Probably unnecessary to make it look like it was put in the scanner misaligned. Just scan the signature itself and past that image onto the image of the document.


Meh. That really doesn’t always look very legit. Especially if you can “select” all the text, and when you select the signature you see a nice box around it. It’s then too obvious it was added as an image.

I don’t disagree that the whole “signing and scanning” is dumb, though.


You can rasterize the pdf, wouldn’t that solve it?


But you could also increase the size of the pdf and clog the bureaucracy's systems.
