About this tool
ShowHide
Most forms that ask for a signature only need your mark on the page: a lease, a consent form, an invoice, a timesheet. This tool lets you make that mark three ways — draw it with a mouse, finger or stylus; type your name and set it in a handwriting face (Dancing Script, under the SIL Open Font License); or upload a photo or scan of your signature on white paper, whose background is turned transparent. Click a page to drop the signature there, drag it into position, pull the corner to resize it, and add as many copies, initials or dates as the document needs. Saving writes each one into the PDF as an image at the exact spot you see, including on pages stored sideways with a rotation flag. The rest of the document is left as it was, so its text stays selectable. Be clear about what this is: an electronic signature of the image kind, accepted for many everyday documents, not a certificate-based digital signature. It does not prove who signed or lock the file against later edits, and some contracts and official filings require that stronger kind. A password-protected PDF has to be unlocked first. Everything happens inside your browser tab, so a contract never leaves your device.
Frequently asked questions
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. The document is rendered, signed and saved inside your browser tab. Nothing is sent to a server, and closing the tab leaves no copy behind.
Is this a legally valid signature?
It is an electronic signature of the simple kind — an image of your mark placed on the document — which many countries accept for everyday agreements. It is not a certificate-based digital signature: it does not identify you cryptographically or detect later changes. If a contract or authority asks for a qualified or certified signature, use a service that issues one.
How do I get a clean signature from paper?
Sign with a dark pen on plain white paper, photograph it in good light, and upload the photo with Remove white background on. Light grey turns transparent and the ink stays, so it sits on the page without a white box around it.
Can I sign several pages, or add initials and a date?
Yes. Click as many pages as you like; every click adds another copy of the current signature. To add initials or a date, make a new one on the Type tab (the Today button fills in the date) and place it the same way.
Why does my typed name not look handwritten?
The handwriting face covers Latin letters only. Names in Korean, Japanese, Chinese and other scripts are drawn in your system font instead — or draw the signature on the pad.
Can I still edit the PDF after signing?
The signature becomes an image on the page, so it cannot be moved again in a normal reader, but nothing locks the file. That is also why this kind of signature does not prove the document was unchanged after signing.
