## 🐛 Common Issues & Fixes

| Issue | Cause | Fix |
|-------|-------|-----|
| Signature not showing | Not uploaded | Upload via Profile |
| "Digital signature on file" | File missing | Re-upload signature |
| Broken image | Invalid path | Check file exists in `public/uploads/signatures/` |
| Won't print | Print CSS missing | Already included in view |

## 🔍 Debugging

**Check if signature uploaded**:
```php
// In browser console or PHP
session('signature_file')  // Should return path
```

**Verify file exists**:
```bash
ls public/uploads/signatures/
```

**Check prescription data**:
```php
dd($prescription['signature_path']);  // In controller
```
