Research direction

Start by inspecting the files and entry points that integrate PDF.js in the pdfviewer, then review the PDF.js v5.4.54 release information. Clarify how a user-created visual signature should be added and retained, using the existing LibreSign workflow as context. Done means users can sign a PDF within the viewer before sending it.
