Preview signing isn't a digital signature (meaining an ECDSA signature of the message HMAC with your personal certificate).
It is just a digital picture of your signature.
Two very different things, but in some cases that is sufficient.
Windows only, comparatively, recently got built in PDF reading support through browsers. Prior to that you either installed acrobat and had Adobe try to shove free antivirus trials onto your machine with every update, or you were in the know and installed foxit.
And signing a PDF on a PC? Now day sure, but its been built into MacOS/OS X for ages.
