Note this is different from the similar question Preview fails to save pdf forms because that other question is about pdf *forms but this is one is just a normal pdf.
I am using Preview
for the first time on Catalina
– but am a veteran on earlier platforms. I am unable to save an updated PDF
This is a PDF that I added some textboxes and a Tools|Annotations|Signature
.
Any ideas?

Once you annotate a regular PDF doc, Preview will prevent you from directly saving the file.
You will have to remove the annotations or, as you already found, do a Print -> Save to PDF.
