Roadmap for PDF reader in Microsoft Edge
hkusulja great suggestion. Just to understand your use case, do you save the ink signature or photo of your signature to use it on documents? Does that make it easier than signing with digital ink?

vygadeka I work in IT for a Law Firm, we have a mix of both being used, some people prefer to have a PNG available to insert on anything they need including PDFs, but those with Surface devices also like signing using the pen as well. What we did is capture the Sig for the users using Paint3D and transparent canvas during save of the PNG to get our custom company color for the ink.

Derek_Romano thanks for the information. For Surface users, directly signing on PDFs in Edge does not work?

vygadeka No sorry if I was not clear, it currently does work for manual ink, but I was just saying they use a mix of both insert of PNG or manual sign via Pen when signing PDFs in my Firm.
I see mentions of working on enhancing inking sensitivity and options so dont think anything else would be needed with regards to manual ink then for sig, but insert of PNG would be useful for sure...some PDF apps offer a "Stamp" option that you can upload a PNG to and have as an easy insert object button rather then hunting for the PNG each time manually.
