Questions and answers

Is this a legally binding digital signature?

TauPDF places your signature as an image on the page. It is not a cryptographic digital signature issued by a certificate authority, so check what the other side requires.

Where are my saved signatures stored?

They stay on your computer, in the program’s own settings.

Can I fix the text I placed?

Yes. Select it and use Edit text, or delete it and place it again.
