About this tool
Signing a PDF without uploading it somewhere is straightforward here: draw a signature using your mouse or finger, or type your name in a script font, or paste an existing signature image. Then drag it to the right position on the page and the signed file downloads immediately.
The signature becomes part of the PDF page content, so it prints and displays like ink. Your signature — drawn or typed — is processed entirely in your browser. A document going for signature is often confidential; it never travels over the network here.
Questions
Is this a legally valid electronic signature?
In many jurisdictions, yes — an electronic signature that captures intent is legally binding. But "valid" depends on the context. A simple drawn signature on a contract PDF is often sufficient for everyday agreements. High-stakes or regulated transactions (property transfers, certain financial instruments) may require a cryptographic digital signature with a certificate chain, which this tool does not provide. When in doubt, check the legal requirements for your specific situation.
Does my signature get saved anywhere?
No. The signature you draw or type lives in your browser tab for the duration of the session and is embedded directly into the output PDF. It is not sent to a server and not stored. Close the tab and it is gone.
What is the difference between a signature and a digital signature?
A signature here is a visual mark — a drawn or typed image placed on the page. A cryptographic digital signature is an encrypted hash of the document content tied to a certificate proving your identity. The second kind can be verified mathematically; the first is the equivalent of signing with a pen.
