Frequently Asked Questions
1What's the difference between signing and certifying?
Certification sets the allowed change level (no changes, form fill only, or annotations). Signing just proves identity.
2What certification levels are available?
Three levels: no changes allowed, form filling and signing only, or form filling, signing, and annotations.
3Can a certified PDF be modified?
Only within the allowed change level. Changes beyond the permitted level invalidate the certification.
4Is certification stronger than a digital signature?
Yes. Certification controls what changes are permitted and prevents unauthorized modifications. Standard signatures only prove identity.
Why Use ZiaSign's Certify PDF Tool?
ZiaSign's PDF certification tool applies a digital certificate that controls what modifications are allowed after certification. Choose no changes, form-fill only, or annotations only. Stronger than standard digital signatures.
