I had to do this! It was a 3-4 page document and I thought printing and scanning was stupid, but did it anyway. Naturally I only printed and scanned the last page with the signature on it. They rejected it saying I had to print and scan the entire document!
I would be very tempted to use something like this next time, however I have a feeling that the same people who think this is sane would accuse you of fraud if they ever found out. Not sure if it's worth it.
I've done this sort of thing often (and more quick&dirty) and nobody had an issue with it yet. Just put a good quality signature on the doc and then export the whole thing as fairly low quality. Making the signature blue and the rest of the document black and white probably also helps. But I never even needed that much.
