Hi @Mallinath-debug,

Are you referring to a status indicator shown on the page as part of the visual appearance of the signature? Because that "feature" of Acrobat was deprecated (for very good reasons; it's inherently insecure!) almost 20 years ago, and removed from the PDF specification altogether. In fact, it was never even part of any ISO PDF standard. Since pyHanko places a heavy emphasis on standards-based PDF, the old Acrobat appearance layer system is not and will never be supported.

You should train your users to look at the validation status report in the signature panel instead.

EDIT: If I misunderstood your question, please clarify. :)
