Sign PDF
Signing works with a finger, a stylus or a mouse, and the signature is saved for next time.
Choose a file to get started. It is processed on your device and never uploaded.
What you can do
- Draw with a finger, stylus or mouse — ink responds to pressure and speed
- Type your name in a handwriting font, or upload a photo of your signature
- Saved on your device for next time
- Resize, rotate and place signatures and initials anywhere
