Once the document is signed, it cannot be changed. Therefore it is imperative that the person who sends a document requiring two signatures must provide two signature fields created for the form to be signed by the signatories.
Check the PDF security certificate. Security features on the PDF file itself could block signing. You can check the security options with your PDF editing software. If you cant sign PDF, you may have to ask the author for an unlocked version.

You can sign a PDF with Xournal++, either by using the drawing tool or by inserting an image file of your signature. I recommend you make a copy of the original file, just to be safe. After you insert your signature do not Save (or Save As) the file, but choose Export to PDF to save the file.
After uploading your document, you can add your signature to a PDF by following these steps: Select Add signature. Click Image, then Select image to browse for an image of your handwritten signature. Drag your new electronic signature into a signature field or anywhere on the PDF.
Step 1: Open a terminal. Step 2: Use the gpg command to check the signature. The gpg command is usually pre-installed in most Linux distributions. If you dont have it, it using the package manager specific to your distribution.
You have no other option than to create the PDF again or request the PDF from the owner. Generally, the PDF is locked for editing, but not for signing unless you or the first signer chooses the Lock document after signing option while signing.
Steps to sign a PDF Open the PDF document or form that you want to sign. Click the Sign icon in the toolbar. The Fill Sign tool is displayed. The form fields are detected automatically. Click the Sign icon in the toolbar, and then choose whether you want to add your signature or just initials.
