Do presidential pardons need to be announced or recorded?

The latest kerfuffle about the Clinton emails and the unrelenting Republican hostility toward Democrats generally makes me wonder this: Could Pres. Obama sign a blanket pardon for anything Clinton might have done, but keep it secret? If she never needed it, no one would ever know, and there would be no public relations hit; but she could produce the document if she was ever threatened with indictment. For that matter, could Obama sign a secret pardon for himself against future investigations? Could the new Pres. Clinton sign her own pardon and keep it secret?
