What is a certificate-based signature?
Similar to a traditional handwritten signature, a certificate-based signature verifies the identity of the document signer. However, unlike a handwritten signature, a certificate-based one is highly secure due to its encryption, making it exceptionally challenging to replicate since it incorporates distinctive encrypted data belonging to the signer.
How to add a certificate-based signature to a PDF?
Adding a certificate-based signature to a PDF is straightforward with PDFelement. Open the document in PDFelement, navigate to "Protect" > "Sign Document," and follow the instructions to generate a Digital ID, customize the
signature's appearance, and apply it to the document. Then, you can click on the signature and choose "Signature Properties" > "Show Certificate" to view the certificate details.

Send contracts to multiple signers.
In our work we have to have signatures of contracts and on-boarding documents. So I use it to send out a contract and have signer 1 sign then have it sent to signer 2 to sign, then sent it back to the originator to be filed.

Simplify invoice signing with suppliers.
I use PDFelement to view and edit my HR documents, and sign performa invoices with my suppliers. I also convert Excel sheets from suppliers after I edit them to PDF and share it with my sales team. My coworkers use my help to edit and convert PDF files most of the time.
