This is possible, but it has to be for a consistent document with a box in the same place(on the same page). Basically you treat a signature as a watermark and merge like normal. The way I found best was to use libreoffice(mostly I just had it on hand) and with a little trial and error you can orient a picture of your signature(if you use the gmail app, you can send a scribble which is really useful for getting a signature jpg) where you want it on output page. Then it's just a matter of merging with the given code on line 21 of https://github.com/mstamy2/PyPDF2/blob/aa3319377ba3d8edae69d3fb43d9123f7a4cfa5c/Sample_Code/basic_features.py .

I hope that's helpful

@ovnicraft True, I understand that this does warrant an actual feature and my workaround isn't ideal but if you needed a quick solution I thought it might work.

Personally, I have to repetitively sign a lot of documents in the exact same place and this works wonders for me
