If you convert the original signed document to .rtf instead of .doc, can
you find the signature in it? (Note that .rtf is just text and can be
viewed in a text editor.) If the signature is there, convert the .doc to
.rtf and see if it's still there.

I noticed something I hadn't noticed last night:
I was just about to do what you suggested, but I decided to try saving a .doc of my document, which I did. Then I wanted to sign it, but a message appeared, stating that one must first save in .odt to sign.
Apparently, it is not possible to sign a .doc.
However, I just saved a .rtf of my document, and lo and behold, it is signed. I do not know whether the signature will appear in Windows.
Curiously, only .odt and .rtf can be signed, but not .doc!
