PDF E-Signature FAQ

Quick answers about signing PDFs electronically, drawing vs typing signatures, and document security.

How can I add my signature to a PDF?

Upload your PDF, then create your signature by drawing it with your mouse or finger, typing your name in a handwriting font, or uploading an image of your signature. Place it anywhere on any page by clicking, then resize and position it before downloading the signed PDF.

What signature methods are available?

Three options are available: draw your signature freehand on a canvas using your mouse or touchscreen, type your name and choose from several handwriting-style fonts, or upload an existing signature image in PNG or JPG format with a transparent or white background.

Can I add multiple signatures to one PDF?

Yes. You can place as many signatures as you need across different pages of the document. Each signature can be independently positioned, resized, and removed. This is useful for documents that require initials on every page along with a full signature.

Are e-signatures legally valid?

Electronic signatures are legally recognized in most countries under laws like the U.S. ESIGN Act and EU eIDAS regulation. However, some documents such as notarized deeds or court filings may require certified digital signatures — check your jurisdiction's specific requirements.

Is my PDF file secure?

Yes. Your file is uploaded over an encrypted HTTPS connection, processed entirely on our server, and automatically deleted after processing completes. We never store, access, or share your documents or signature data with any third party.

Will signing affect my PDF quality?

No. Your signature is placed as a transparent overlay on the selected pages without modifying the underlying content. The original text, images, and formatting remain completely untouched, and the file size increase is minimal.

Can I resize or reposition my signature after placing it?

Yes. After placing a signature on a page, you can drag it to a new position and resize it by pulling the corner handles. You can also delete a placed signature and start over if needed. Adjustments are made visually in the live preview.

What image formats are supported for uploading a signature?

You can upload signature images in PNG or JPG format. PNG with a transparent background works best because it blends seamlessly with the document. If you upload a JPG, the tool places it with a white background which may cover a small area around your signature.

Can I use this tool to sign a PDF on my phone or tablet?

Yes. The e-sign tool works in any modern mobile browser on iOS and Android. Drawing your signature with your finger on a touchscreen often produces the most natural-looking result. All features including draw, type, and upload work on mobile devices.

What is the difference between an e-signature and a digital signature?

An e-signature is a visual representation of your signature placed on a PDF, suitable for most everyday agreements. A digital signature uses cryptographic certificates to verify identity and detect tampering. This tool creates e-signatures, which are sufficient for most contracts and business documents.
