Beware if you create a signature in Foxit Reader Portable (9.1.0.5096), the signature file will be temporary created and stored in the host computer until the app closes. Signature file path: %AppData%\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader\InstaSign\UserSign\
The entire %AppData%\Foxit Software folder will disappear after closing Foxit Reader Portable. Signature is not transfer to the location of the PortableApp and will not be available on re-opening the portable app.

Thanks. It works. Signature is saved to D:\PortableApps\FoxitReaderPortable\Data\UserSign
Left behind in the host computer are:
%AppData%->Foxit Reader->cws.connectedpdf.com->Lang
%AppData%->Foxit Reader->cws.connectedpdf.com->UserImage
%AppData%->Foxit Reader->StartPage 9.1.0->advertisement->ad->..bmp and png files..
%AppData%->Foxit Reader->StartPage 9.1.0->advertisement->http
%AppData%->Foxit Reader->StartPage 9.1.0->advertisement->ad.db
%AppData%->Foxit Reader->StartPage 9.1.0->advertisement->ad.zip
%AppData%->Foxit Reader->StartPage 9.1.0->start->en-US->..folders.and.files..
This is fixed in Foxit Reader Portable 9.2.0.9297. A modified version of the above was used to clean up the additional entries left by the newer releases.
