Pro Tips for Sign PDF
Get the most out of your sign PDF experience
Transparent background
Drawn and typed signatures are transparent, so they sit cleanly over lines and text.
Multiple signatures
Add initials to every page and a full signature on the last page in one go.
Legal note
This adds a visual signature. For a certificate-based digital signature your organisation may require specialised software.

Frequently Asked Questions — Sign PDF
Everything you need to know about how to sign PDF online
Is my signature stored?
Only if you tick 'Remember on this device', which saves it in your browser's local storage. It is never sent anywhere.
Can I sign more than one page?
Yes. Place the signature, then use 'Add to all pages' or pick the pages individually.
Is this a legally binding e-signature?
In many jurisdictions a drawn signature on a PDF is accepted as an electronic signature. Check the requirements that apply to your document.
Are my files secure while I sign a PDF?
Yes. Everything happens inside your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file is never uploaded, and nothing is stored on a server.
Do you keep a copy of my document?
No. The file lives in your browser's memory only. When you close or refresh the tab it is gone. We cannot see it, and neither can anyone else.
