I can't for the life of me understand why the only valid ways to save a signature image for Preview is (1) your computer's camera, and (2) scrawling on the touch pad.

I have a previously-scanned signature that I'd like to re-use. I'd love to simply import the file. Instead I have to print it out and then hold it in front of the camera, trying to get it aligned. It's madness. Is it supposed to be more secure for some reason?



Why do you need to print it? Is it so difficult to redo your signature? That shouldn't be so difficult for you...


Sometimes a printer is closer than a pen, unfortunately....


And, importantly, its location is more predictable.


Can't you just drop a .png on there? I think that works and adds it to the library. But I might recall that from somewhere else.
