Create your signature three ways

Draw with mouse or finger for a natural mark, type your name in a handwriting font for consistency, or upload a scan of your wet signature. Save it once — it persists in your browser for every future document.

Place it precisely, bake it permanently

Each placement sets page, position, and width as percentages, so signatures land identically on any screen size. Add one for the signature line, one for initials on each page — then bake everything permanently into the file on download.

Steps

  1. Create your signature: draw, type, or upload it
  2. Save it (kept only in this browser)
  3. Add placements with page, position, and size
  4. Click Run and download the signed PDF

Pro tips

  • Use a transparent PNG upload for the cleanest stamp over document text.
  • After signing contracts, Protect with a password before emailing.

Is this legally binding?

It is a standard electronic signature mark, accepted for most everyday agreements. Regulated filings may require certified signatures.
