I use Fill & Sign to add my signature, save the PDF, then send to a recipient. If a recipient opens the PDF in Acrobat, they can select Edit PDF and then they can easily move/edit/export the signature.

How do I prevent or restrict this?

Use a digital signature field instead of Fill & Sign.

I can reproduce my issue even when using the Digital Signature. After I sign and save the file, I just use the print dialogue to "Print as PDF", which turns the digiatal signatures into editable images just like the Fill & Sign method.
