I am currently trying to sign mupltiple pages on acrobat with the same signature at once. The location will stay the same position across all pages and need to be able to click and sign the first page to sign all following pages.

    This is not possible, nor needed. A digital signature applies to the entire file as a whole, not just to the page where it appears. If you need the appearance of a signature on all pages then use an image or a stamp, and then digitally sign it once after you've added those images.

    Do you mean actual digital signatures using PDF AcroForm signature fields?

    In that case having multiple widgets of the same signature field is forbidden by the PDF specification.

    Last time I checked Adobe Acrobat signature validation routines accepted signatures in signature fields with multiple widgets nonetheless. But you shouldn't expect it to keep accepting them. And in particular you shouldn't expect it to create such structures itself.
