PDFs can be also timestamped when signing with standard RFC 3161 [0]
timestamping service.
Here's one example:
https://support.globalsign.com/customer/en/portal/articles/2361790-add-timestamp-server---adobe-acrobat
But there are numerous free RFC 3161 timestamping services.
Of course that's not the same as blockchain, but it's already supported
by numerous tools (like Adobe Acrobat).
Kind regards,
