As outlined above, an OpenPGP signature is a composite data structure, which combines:
- A *signature type ID* (see above), which specifies the intended meaning of the signature,
- Metadata (which is variable and depends in part on the type ID),
- Most of this metadata is encoded as so-called "subpackets," see {ref}`signature_subpackets`,
- A raw cryptographic signature.
- **Signature type ID**: specifies the signature's intended meaning, as detailed above
- **Metadata**: varies based, in part, on the signature type ID; mostly encoded as "subpackets" (see {ref}`signature_subpackets`)
- **Raw cryptographic signature**
