FAQ

Are my signature and file uploaded?

No. Creating, placing and writing the signature all happen locally in your browser; saved signatures live only in this browser’s localStorage.

Is this a legally binding e-signature?

It is a visual (image) signature, suitable for everyday contracts and forms. It is not a certificate-based cryptographic digital signature — confirm the recipient accepts image signatures when legal requirements are strict.

Try it ↑
Can I sign multiple pages?

Yes. Flip to the target page and "Add to page" again; each page can hold several signatures, exported in one pass.

Try it ↑
Any requirements for uploaded signature images?

PNG or JPG; a white or transparent background with clear strokes works best. You can resize freely after placing.

Does a digital signature survive processing?

No. Any change to a signed PDF (merging, compressing, watermarking…) invalidates the existing digital signature — that is the tamper-proof design of PDF signatures, not a limit of this site. Process first, then sign.

Try it ↑
Can I trust the processing engine?

Yes — and you can verify it: the tool runs on open-source in-browser engines (pdf-lib, pdf.js, Tesseract OCR…) on your own device. Open DevTools → Network while processing and you will see no file upload requests.
