How to use it

  1. Choose the PDF. Its page count appears under the name, and the first page is shown.
  2. Make the signature: draw it, type your name in a script font, or upload a picture of your signature.
  3. Choose the page, click Place on this page, then drag the picture where it should go. Set its width with the slider. Repeat for every place that needs it.
  4. Click Make the signed PDF, then Download. The original file is not changed.

A visual signature is not a qualified signature

This tool puts a picture of a signature on the page. The picture is drawn into the page, so anyone who opens the file sees it. It shows whose signature you mean to place, but a picture does not prove who made the mark.

In Türkiye, Law No. 5070 on Electronic Signature, published in the Official Gazette on 23 January 2004, sets the rules for electronic signatures; the e-imza it describes, which has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature, needs a qualified certificate and a secure signing device. In the European Union, a qualified electronic signature under eIDAS has the legal effect of a handwritten one. A picture of a signature is neither of these.

How the picture is placed

The signature is drawn into the page, so it is part of the page content and not a form field that can be filled in again. A PNG keeps its transparent background, so the page shows through around the ink. The width you set is a share of the page, so the signature keeps its proportions on every page size, and it is turned with a rotated page.

A drawn signature is smoothed to even out a shaky hand. A typed signature uses a script font from your device, so it can look different on another device with other fonts.

  • Up to 100 placements in one file, on any pages, in any order.
  • Drag a placement to move it; the picture stays on the page.
  • The file's title, author and other properties are not changed.

Example: an offer signed on two pages

Draw your signature once. On page 3, next to the signature line, click Place on this page and set the width to about 25 % of the page. Then go to page 5, place it again and drag it to the line there.

The result has the signature in two places and the rest of the offer unchanged. Keep the original file as well, because the signed copy cannot be reversed here.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a legally binding electronic signature?

No. It is a visual signature: a picture of your signature on the pages. A signature with the legal effect of a handwritten one needs a qualified e-signature, such as an e-imza under Law No. 5070 in Türkiye or a qualified electronic signature under eIDAS in the EU.

Are my signature and my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. The signature is made, placed and drawn into the file in your browser. Nothing is sent to our server, and the tool links to no official signing service.

Can someone check that the signature is genuine?

Not with this tool. A picture carries no proof of who made it, and it is not sealed to the content of the file. Use a qualified signature service when the signature must be verified.

Why does my typed signature look different on another computer?

A typed signature uses a font installed on the device that made it. If the chosen script font is missing, the browser uses a fallback font. Make the signature on the device you will sign on.

Can I remove a signature after I download the file?

Not in this tool. Once the signed file is saved, the signature is part of it. Keep the original file and sign a fresh copy when you need to change the placement.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. Draw with your finger, drag the placement with your finger, and set its width with the slider. Large files take longer on a phone.
