Validate PDF signatures

Check whether digital signatures in the PDF are cryptographically valid.

Why use Validate PDF signatures?

Signed contracts and invoices depend on certificates remaining valid. PDFBaba checks digital signature status using pdfcpu validation and can show verbose certificate detail for IT review. This is not legal advice about enforceability—only a technical read of cryptographic validity. No signup is required, and uploads are deleted quickly. If signatures fail, investigate clock skew, revoked certificates, or modified files since signing.

Supported files & limits

One PDF with digital signatures. The default upload limit is 100MB per file; administrators can raise or lower this via server configuration. Output describes certificate status—not legal advice.
