Anyone sign and seal documents as DWF?  I've always printed the drawings to PDF then use Bluebeam or Adobe to use my digital signature/seal then flatten everything prior to sending out.  I have a client asking for DWF with stamp and signature and I'm just not familiar with it.  I asked the state board and it's up to me, but looking at the requirements of the board I don't see how the DWF meets those requirements.  Located in Kentucky.
