Sign PDF
Draw or type a signature, place it on your PDF, download — free, no upload
This is a visual signature — perfect for signing forms, contracts and letters you send yourself. It is not a cryptographic e-signature.
100% private — Files are processed right in your browser and never uploaded to any server.
How signing is implemented
- Three input modes — draw with mouse/finger/stylus, type your name in a handwriting font, or upload an ink-signature photo (background auto-thresholded).
- Placement — position, scale and rotation handles; optional date line stamps beside it.
- Flattening — the signature rasterizes into page contents at ~300 dpi, so deleting images elsewhere won't remove it.
- Not cryptographic — this is a visual signature for everyday contracts; qualified e-signature law compliance varies by country and isn't claimed here.
Draw, type or place your signature once
Pad strokes store locally for reuse, place anywhere with drag-and-scale, then flatten into the PDF so no editor can peel them off.
Draw or type your name
Sketch a signature with your mouse, trackpad, or finger on the pad, or switch to the type tab and your name is rendered in a handwriting-style font. Black and blue ink colors match pen choices.
Page, position, and width
Pick the page number, one of five positions — bottom-left, bottom-center, bottom-right, top-left, or top-right — and a width from 10 to 60 percent of the page for the signature's size.
Restore your last signature
Your previous signature is saved locally, and a restore link brings it back on the next visit so recurring paperwork does not need the same strokes redrawn. A clear button starts over with a blank pad.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a legally binding electronic signature?⌄
No — this places a visual signature image onto the page, the same as every free online PDF signer. For a legally binding e-signature (with identity verification and an audit trail), use a dedicated e-signature service.
Can I sign more than one page?⌄
Each run signs one page — pick the page number before converting. Run the tool again on the result to add a second signature elsewhere.
Is my PDF uploaded to your servers?⌄
No — everything happens in your browser using pdf-lib. The file never leaves your device.

What Is PDF Signing?
PDF signing adds your signature to a document so it can be returned as a signed file. Contracts, consent forms, NDAs, and school paperwork all end with a signature line — and with this tool you can sign from anywhere, without printing, scanning, or a fax machine. You draw your signature with a mouse, trackpad, or finger, or simply type your name and it is rendered in a handwriting-style font, then you place it on the page of your choice. It is the same visual signature every free online signer provides: quick and easy, rather than a certified cryptographic e-signature. The signed file downloads immediately and can be returned by email the same day.
What this tool can do
- ✍️ Draw your signature freehand with a mouse, trackpad, or finger
- ⌨️ Or type your name and have it rendered in an elegant handwriting-style script
- 📄 Choose which page the signature goes on, defaulting to the last page
- 📍 Place it in five positions: any corner or the bottom center
- 📏 Size the signature from 10 to 60 percent of the page width

When you'll use it

- 💼 Approve an internal document by adding your signature to the approval page

Everything happens in your browser — your signature and document never leave your device. The signature is embedded as an image, which makes it a visual signature, not a legally binding cryptographic e-signature, the same honest scope as every mainstream free PDF signer. One signature is placed per run; for multi-signature contracts, run the tool again for each signer or use the form-filling tool for documents with signature fields.
