save signature from preview to desktop in Ventura

On my Mac I want to save electronic signature in preview to my desktop, when I create a signature from sketch on my iPhone for pages & want to resize & position it changes the documents settings. How can I just simply slide from desktop to document, in this case pages?

not possible. Sig files in Preview.app are highly guarded (encrypted) for security purposes...


Do something independent— create a stand alone image with a transparent background, to copy & paste as needed


ex.
