How scanner apps writes PDFs
- • Scans are images of the page, sometimes with a hidden text layer from OCR.
- • The visible text is pixels, not letters.
What that means when you add your signature
- • Scanned pages are pictures of text. Use OCR PDF to make them searchable; typing into a scan is a separate, image based process.
- • On a scan the whole page is one image, so individual pictures inside it cannot be moved separately.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • The signature is an image of your handwriting, not a certificate based digital signature.
- • Your saved signature stays in your browser.
