How to Edit a Signed PDF?

Open the signed PDF in a PDF editor that supports signed documents

Check whether the signature is certified or locked

If the PDF is locked, remove the signature only if you have permission and the signing workflow allows it

Save a copy of the original PDF before making changes

Edit only the allowed fields if the signature permits form editing

Use a PDF editor to modify text, images, or pages if the document is not locked

If the signature must remain valid, do not alter any signed content

Add changes in a new version of the document if required

Re-sign the PDF after editing if a new signature is needed

Use a digital signature workflow that supports multiple signatures if applicable

Export the edited file as a new PDF

Verify the final document and signature status after saving
