Inverse Laplace Transform to Recover CDF

I know we can recover CDF of a variable random $ X $ by using inverse laplace transform. But as far as I know, laplace transform is defined on $ [0,infty] $. Does it imply that we can only recover CDF of real positive random variable? How about bilateral laplace transform? Does inverse bilateral laplace transform can recover CDF of real variable random $ X $?

For the two-sided Laplace transform, one has to explicitly specify the region of convergence for the inverse transform. If the inverse transform of $F(p)$ is $f$ when $p$ lies in the vertical strip $ROC(f)$, then
$$mathcal L !left[ int_-infty^t f(tau) dtau right] =
frac F(p) p, \
p in ROC(f) land operatornameRe p > 0.$$
This property can be used to obtain the cdf from the pdf $f$. If you take $p$ in the left half-plane, the answer will differ by $int_-infty^infty f(tau) dtau = 1$.
Can you prove $ mathcalL [ int_-infty^t f(x) dx ] = fracF(p)p $ is valid for the two-sided laplace transform? Because when I am trying to prove it, using integration by parts, there is this term $ lim_t to -infty - frac1s e^-st int_-infty^t f(x) dx $ which most likely not to be 0. But this term has to be 0 if the formula for cdf to be valid. Or is there any connection between the $ ROC(f) $ and this term?

If the double integral converges absolutely, the domain $t in mathbb R, tau < t$ can be reparametrized as $tau in mathbb R, t > tau$: $$int_-infty^infty dt ,e^-p t int_-infty^t dtau f(tau)= int_-infty^infty dtau f(tau) int_tau^infty dt ,e^-p t.$$

Hmm I still dont get it. Maybe it is a silly question, is $ int_-infty^infty f(tau) dtau $ and $ int_-infty^infty dtau f(tau) $ the same? For several times, I have seen this integral, but not sure what it is

Yes, $int_-infty^infty f(tau) dtau$ and $int_-infty^infty dtau f(tau)$ are exactly the same. If it's clearer, rewrite the above as $int_-infty^infty (e^-p t int_-infty^t f(tau) dtau) dt = int_-infty^infty (f(tau) int_tau^infty e^-p t dt) dtau$.
