What is a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC)?
Unlike a drawn image of a signature, a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) uses public key cryptography (X.509 standards) to authenticate the signer's identity and prove that the document has not been altered since it was signed. Governments and regulatory agencies worldwide mandate DSC signatures for corporate filings, tenders, and tax submissions.
The problem with commercial PDF signing tools
Most commercial PDF viewers lock DSC token signing behind premium subscriptions costing $20 to $30 every month. If you only sign a few invoices or regulatory documents each week, paying recurring fees is frustrating.
