+How to sign a PDF on Linux
+===========================
+
+First, you need a transparent image of signature, eg as a PNG file. Android
+works pretty well for this: you can sign a blank piece of paper, take a
+photo, and clean it up. Then can use gimp if necessary to remove background
+and make a transparent image.
+
+NOTE: if text import isn't working, need to go in preferences and change input
+type (!), see also <https://github.com/xournalpp/xournalpp/issues/2035>.
+
+To edit PDFs, use `xournalpp`, which is a GUI tool packaged in Debian. You
+can add text and paste images, then export as PDF.
