Especially in the use case of archiving I see a necessity to sign, time stamp, or both sign and time stamp documents. And if your processes are PDF-centric, integrated signatures and time stamps are obvious techniques to use, independant of the capabilities of viewer programs. Unless, of course, you first need to archive the unsigned document and your archival policy doesn't allow updates of these documents.
