About this tool

Sign PDF files online with eSignatures — type, draw, or upload an image of your signature, place it anywhere on the document, and download the signed PDF. No account, no upload, no email step. Useful for contracts, NDAs, expense forms, and anything that needs a signature without printing-and-scanning.

When to use it

  • Signing a contract or NDA without needing a printer or scanner
  • Adding initials to multiple pages of a multi-page agreement
  • Approving an expense or purchase form with a quick eSignature
  • Returning a signed document that arrived as a PDF attachment
  • Producing a signed copy of a form for personal records

What to expect

Signatures are rasterised onto the PDF page — visually permanent and won't shift when the document is opened in different readers. This is a visual eSignature, not a cryptographic digital signature; for legally-required digital signatures (e.g., qualified eSignature in the EU), use a dedicated certificate-based service.

Frequently asked questions

Is an eSignature legally binding?

In most jurisdictions, yes — for ordinary commercial agreements. ESIGN and UETA in the US, eIDAS in the EU, and similar laws elsewhere recognise visual eSignatures. For contracts that legally require a qualified digital signature (some real-estate, government, and EU regulated work), use a certificate-based service.

Can I save my signature for later?

The current session keeps your drawn or typed signature for re-use across pages. To save permanently, take a transparent-background screenshot of your signature and upload it as an image when you sign next time.

Will the signature survive PDF compression or editing?

Yes. The signature is rendered into the PDF as part of the page content, so it travels with the document the same way text does. Compression preserves it; redaction or page deletion would obviously affect it.
