How do I sign a PDF document without printing it?
To sign a PDF document without printing it, open it in Sign PDF, create your signature once, place it on the page and download the signed copy. This replaces the print, sign and scan routine, and works on a computer or a phone.
How do I make a signature for a PDF?
You can make a signature in three ways, and each can be saved on this device to reuse later.
- Type your name and choose one of 12 handwriting styles.
- Draw it with a mouse, finger or pen. Turn your phone sideways for more room.
- Upload a photo or scan of your signature. We remove the white background, and you can fine-tune it with a slider.
Choose an ink colour and tick Save on this device. Initials and a company stamp work the same way.
How do I place a signature exactly?
Pick a field, then click the page. Drag to move, use the corner handle to resize, and rotate in steps. Date, name, text and checkmark fields help you fill in the rest; for forms with lots of blanks, Fill & sign puts those tools first. Under More options, Lock the document after signing makes fields and annotations part of the page, much like Flatten PDF.
Everything happens on your device. The signed file never reaches a server unless you choose to share it.
