Options for Add Signature to PDF

Used when the typed option is selected.

Leave empty for every page. Use ranges like 2-5 and lists like 1,4,9.

This adds a visible signature to the page. It is not a cryptographic digital signature and does not certify the document — for legally certified signing you need a qualified e-signature provider.

About this tool

The print-sign-scan cycle wastes time and produces a worse document than the original. Placing a signature directly on the PDF keeps the file clean, and for the overwhelming majority of everyday agreements — delivery notes, consent forms, internal approvals, rental paperwork — a clear visible signature is what the other side is asking for.

Two options are available. Upload a PNG of your handwritten signature (sign a white sheet, photograph it, remove the background) for the most personal result, or type your name and get it drawn above a ruled signature line. Either can be dated automatically. Because everything happens on your device, a signed contract never touches a server.

What it's good for

  • Signing a contract or agreement sent by email.
  • Approving an internal document before returning it.
  • Signing a consent or authorisation form.
  • Adding a dated signature to the last page of a report.

Features

  • Image or typed

  • Automatic date

    Optionally stamp today's date beneath the signature.

  • Defaults to the last page

    Where signatures usually belong.

  • Never uploaded

    Your signature stays on your device.
