Hello!
I noticed that when I'm gonna save a pdf the pdf xchange editor freezes.
This freeze is happening consistently and until now I didn't notice with others pdf I have just the one showed in the video. If I notice this with other pdfs I will update this post with the videos of them too.
until now I noticed that the freeze happens when saving using the options "Save", "Save All" and "Save as"
I attaching a video demonstrating what I'm saying. I got the same problem in version v. 9.2 build 358 and thought that if I updated to build 359 the problem would go away but it was not the case.
I'm attaching the pdf which I'm getting those freezes;
Can you reproduce this issue with the pdf I attached?
thank you for the attention!

The problem is with the accessive amount of digital signatures in the document. When a document is saved, all existing signatures are re-validated. And it takes time when there are many signatures.

Hello, Ivan! Thank you for the response. I feel the need to add that I used this pdf before builds 358 and 359 and didn't notice this freeze when saving it. But I never realized the excessive amount of signatures in it too. It makes sense that this is the problem indeed.Ivan - Tracker Software wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 6:06 pm The problem is with the accessive amount of digital signatures in the document.

In older builds, we had simplified signature validation that could not detect incorrect modifications after (or between) signing a document. We had to fix that issue to conform to the specification, but, unfortunately, that slows down the validation process, especially in the case of having so many signatures.
