Sign a PDF
Sign PDF puts your signature on a document without printing and scanning it. Draw your signature with a mouse, a pen or your finger, or type your name and use it as a signature. Choose the page — the last page is the usual one — and the position, set the width, and add today's date underneath if you like.
Typed signatures use a handwriting-style font. If you add the date, it's written in the format of the language you're using the site in. The signature is placed on the page you choose; for documents that need signing in several places, run the tool once for each place.
It's ideal for rental agreements, consent forms, permission slips and anything else that just needs your signature. On a phone, signing with your finger is often the most natural.
Your document and your signature stay in your browser and are never uploaded. Note that this is a simple electronic signature — the image of your signature on the page — not a certificate-based digital signature.

Questions and answers
Is this signature legally valid?
In many countries a simple electronic signature is accepted for everyday agreements, but some documents need a certificate-based (qualified) signature. If in doubt, ask the person who requested the signature.
Is my signature stored anywhere?
No. It's created and placed on the page in your browser and never sent to us.
Can I sign on my phone?
Yes. Draw with your finger in the signature box.
Can I fill in the form too?
Use Fill Forms for documents with form fields, then sign the result here.
How do I stop others from moving my signature?
The signature is drawn into the page itself. For extra protection, flatten the PDF or add a password with Protect PDF.
