How do I sign a PDF with this?

Make your signature here, download the transparent PNG, then drop it onto your document in any PDF editor. Your document never leaves your computer.

Is it a legal e-signature?

It produces a signature image. For a typed/drawn signature image this is widely used; for legally-binding e-signature workflows follow your local rules.

Is anything uploaded?

No — the signature is created entirely in your browser.

How do I get a clean signature with a mouse?

Sign larger than you normally would and at a steady speed; the image is scaled down when you place it, which smooths small wobbles. A phone screen and a finger usually give a better result than a mouse.

What colour should the signature be?

Black or dark blue. Blue makes it easy to tell an original signature from a photocopy, which some offices prefer.

draw your signature above (mouse or finger) — transparent PNG, made on your device

Printing a document just to sign it and scan it back is a ritual nobody misses. Make your signature once, as an image with a transparent background, and place it on any PDF, Word document or form from then on.

There are two ways. Draw it with your mouse, finger or stylus, which looks most like your real signature, or type your name and have it set in a handwriting-style script if drawing on a trackpad is not going well. Download the PNG, or the double-size version if the document will be printed, so the line stays crisp on paper.

Because the background is transparent, the signature sits on the signature line without a white box covering the text around it. The image is created in your browser and never uploaded. One honest note: this produces a signature image, which is what most everyday documents ask for. Contracts that require a certified electronic signature with identity verification need a dedicated signing service.
