Signature
The Signature page of the Printing Preferences window allows you to enable and configure the
options for digitally signing PDF documents.
The window can be opened by choosing the Printing Preferences menu item when novaPDF is
selected in the Printers and Faxes window and clicking the Signature tab. This tab is also
accessible from the printing Windows application in the Print dialog if you press the Properties
(Preferences) button when novaPDF is selected.
Using this option you can apply a signature to a created PDF file even if the original document
does not have any signatures or copyright protection. The signature will be applied automatically
when the file is converted. All you have to do is to enable and customize it and all the created PDF
files will contain the signature applied afterwards. The option can be disabled at any time or a
separate Profile containing the option can be created and used when needed.
A digital PDF signature is a code that can be embedded in a portable document (PDF) so that the
sender will be uniquely identified. Its main purpose is to attest that the document was indeed
created by the individual/organization claiming to be the author. A digital signature contains
several encryption techniques to guarantee its security. Digitally signing PDF documents is useful
when using it for branding, protecting and copyrighting information in the resulting PDF file.
