From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It does!
If you want to actually digitally sign you can add a key in your OS and then go to "Tools -> Digitally sign" where you can choose a background image which you then can drag where you want to have it.
If you only want your written signature in there, you can create a stamp for it. Click on the arrow beside "Yellow Highlighter" (or whichever tool you have selected) in the top right corner. Select "Configure Annotations" and hit "Add...".
Make the type a stamp, give it a name like "Signature" and select an image you want to use. After that save and apply.
You can now select your stamp in the top right corner and place it anywhere by clicking or dragging over the PDF.
As a side note, depending on where you live a written signature in a PDF is meaningless at least in terms of legally binding documents.
OMG you are an absolute legend of a life saver! Thank you so much, I am going to try it out as soon as I get to a computer!
