Sign a PDF With Your Signature

Free & private · no signup · no watermarks · files deleted in 1 hour

Need to sign a PDF document without printing, signing, and rescanning? Our Sign PDF tool lets you add your signature electronically in three ways: draw it with your mouse or finger, type it in a handwriting-style font, or upload an image of your handwritten signature. Place the signature anywhere on the page, resize it to fit, and download the signed PDF immediately.

Electronic signatures created with our tool are visually equivalent to a handwritten signature and are widely accepted for internal approvals, informal agreements, consent forms, and many commercial contracts. For legally binding regulated transactions requiring a qualified electronic signature under eIDAS or similar legislation, a certified digital signature certificate is required — our tool does not provide certificate-based signing.

Key features: Draw, type, or upload signature • Place and resize on any page • Supports PDFs up to 100MB • Instant signed PDF download • 256-bit SSL during processing • Files deleted within 1 hour • No registration

It depends on the jurisdiction and the type of transaction. In most countries, a visible electronic signature on a PDF (a drawn, typed, or image-based signature) is legally valid for the majority of everyday business contracts, internal approvals, and commercial agreements under laws like the US ESIGN Act and the EU eIDAS Regulation (as a "simple electronic signature"). For regulated transactions — real estate transfers, wills, notarised documents, certain government filings — a qualified digital signature with a certificate from a trust service provider is required. Our tool creates simple electronic signatures only.
