OK.
What are you using for viewing? And it's OK that the user
won't see the actual document - but instead, one that is modified?

Correct - as to be expected.

But then how does the user know if the document has been
signed - or they don't care?
I would suggest doing a "form flattening" operation. That
will flatten the signature out of the document (as an active element)
but leave the visual representation of the signature for viewing.
