The place verb in the docs: a signature is a picture, not cryptography - #18

Conversation
`pdfops place` draws a picture where you say it goes — a signature, a logo, a seal — and the operations page now names it among the verbs and shows it on the command line. It also says what the tool is NOT. "Sign a PDF" in every tool that offers it means a picture of a signature, placed; a drawn squiggle proves nothing about who drew it, and the cryptographic kind is a different job under a different name. Leaving that unsaid is how a scanned squiggle comes to be called a digital signature. This edit waited: when it was written, another session held the lease on this repository and was investigating a red default branch, so it was stashed rather than committed into their worktree. The lease has since lapsed and this branch is cut from current main, not from the branch that was checked out then. Built with hugo and checked on the BUILT page, not on the source.

which is green.

⛔ Leaving that unsaid is how a scanned squiggle comes to be called a digital
signature. The cryptographic pair —
digital-sign-pdfandvalidate-signature-pdfon BentoPDF's list — is a different job and is stilluncovered.
Why this edit waited
When it was written, another session held the agentsync lease on this
repository and was investigating a red default branch. I had already edited the
file before claiming, so I stashed it rather than commit into their
worktree — their branch was checked out at the time. The lease has since
lapsed, and this branch is cut from current
main, not from the branch thatwas checked out then.
