Sign a PDF by hand

You need a signature on a form, a delivery note, a consent slip to send back: draw it here and it lands on the document, with no printing and rescanning. The file stays on your device.

Your file stays on your device: nothing is uploaded

How it works

You draw the signature in the box with a finger, a mouse or a pen, and it gets cropped around the strokes — so when you ask for “five centimetres wide” that is five centimetres of signature, not of box. The background stays transparent, so placed on a form it does not cover the line underneath. If you prefer, you can upload a photo or a scan of a signature on paper instead: that is also the only route for anyone who cannot use a mouse or a touchscreen. The signature is drawn into the page content rather than as an annotation, so it is not a sticker that comes off from a reader’s panel. By default it lands on the last page, which is where signatures go; you can name other pages with the same notation as the other tools (1-3, 7, 10-). On a rotated page the signature still comes out upright for the reader, and if the size you ask for does not fit it is scaled down keeping its proportions rather than ending up off the sheet.

Your files are never uploaded. Anywhere.

Not to a server of ours, not to a third party, never. When you pick a file it stays in your browser’s memory: it is read, processed and written back on your device, and you save the result yourself. There is no path that takes it elsewhere, because there is no server to send it to.

Processed locallyFormats are handled by WebAssembly code running in your browser, not by a remote service.
Nothing to upload, nothing to wait forOther services send your file to a server and then send it back to you. Here the file never leaves: there is no upload to wait for.
No accountNo sign-up, no email, no daily limits to get around by paying.
No files to deleteOthers promise to erase your files after an hour. We have nothing to erase: they never reached us.
