Description Rainer B 2014-05-19 19:37:50 UTC

I could select a certain amount of stamps, but want to create my own one as a signature (jpg-file).
So  my wish is to add a feature to import a jpg/png/tif-file for making an own stamp.

Reproducible: Always

AFAICS this is now possible and documented in okular 0.26.70.

Change status to RESOLVED FIXED?

Comment 2 Carl-Daniel Hailfinger 2016-10-09 21:30:55 UTC

Please note that as of okular 0.26.70, custom stamps can be saved with the PDF, but other PDF viewers seem to ignore them.

...and custom annotations will not be printed. This means that signatures are useless at all

This feature (custom image stamps) already exists, but it's just got a few issues:

1. It's not very discoverable (you write the path to your image/signature file in the combobox). That's tracked by https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383652
2. Stamps are saved into the document in a way that other viewers don't see it. That's tracked by https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383651
