This is amazing! Super simple, clear explanation, amazing results! Absolutely game changing and easier than any other workaround I've used in the past.
I actually always print my edited PDFs to a PDF file so that no one can change them when I send it somewhere (such as also text fields I've filled in). So that always views perfectly. It is just a png image but yes I've not actually tried to view it without printing it.
Glad it was helpful! Yes LibreOffice opens it to do full-blown PDF edit, which could mess up the layout if the fonts are different. Okular and Xournal do a quicker, cleaner job of just annotating over the form and inserting signatures.
What drives me up the wall is that resizing doesn't respect the aspect ratio of the original image, have you found a way, shortcut or anything to fix that by any chance?
Yes, you're not the only one, and I see a bug report/request was made at bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=467324 for exactly what you're asking. I've tried various short-cut keys, but nothing is keeping that ratio.
Yes it's not the ultimate PDF editor at all, but it is great for quick and simple stuff. Not sure if I'm recalling correctly, but maybe it was Okular filling in garbage into form fill fields, I used to print the form to PDF, then open to complete in Okular.
I wonder how long it took you to figure this out, what an incredibly annoying application. Thanks for your patience in figuring this out, I was about 5 seconds away from uninstalling this application.
It was one of those sudden inspirations. I'd also long given up on it and was using Master PDF Editor, and then I saw one day that a stamp in Okular was actually just a graphics file = signature image!
THE BEST! THE GOAT!
exactly what I was looking for.
Glad this still helps!

Thanks for that feedback and glad if could help you!
A good and short explanation, thank you!
One of my shortest explanations ;-)
Cool, thanks a lot! Been searching for awhile and got a hint already for the 'stamp-business, but your video explained it perfectly.
Glad it helped!
Thanks a lot. IT was super helpful!!!!
You're welcome!
Thanks a span man
It's a pleasure hope it helped
Yes, that's really amazing, but unfortunatelly, the inserted signature can only be seen by Okular, but not by other pdf-viewer. Agree?

Very useful, thank you 🙂 I occasionally get PDF documents to sign. Up until now I have just imported them into Libre Office to sign them.

Thank you, now I no longer need a second program for pdfs
Good to hear - yes wish I'd know about this sooner.
Thanks man. Wow this is such an unintuitive and obtuse way of having to do this.
Glad it was helpful! I hear though they may be improving this in a future update. You're right, it should be an upfront feature.

@@GadgeteerZA Thank you so much for the info!
Does not accept fillable pdfs
