Place a typed name or image signature on a PDF
Add a simple signature mark for informal packets. This is not a qualified electronic signature under eIDAS or similar laws.
How to sign a PDF
A drawn or typed name on a PDF is often enough for internal forms. It is visually a signature. It is not automatically a legally qualified certificate-based signature.
Image signatures should sit on a transparent PNG if you do not want a white box. Keep a copy of the unsigned original.
The stamp is applied locally. We do not run a signing ceremony or identity check.
- Open Sign PDF and add the PDF.
- Type a name or upload a PNG/JPG of a signature image.
- Apply the signature to the page. Download and check that it sits where you intended.
- If a bank or government requires a specific signing product, use that product instead of this overlay.
Signature overlay
For contracts that name DocuSign, Adobe Sign, or a national ID scheme, use those. This tool will not satisfy that clause.
- Typed name or uploaded image.
- Not a certificate-based digital signature.
- Does not verify identity.
- Fine for informal internal paperwork.
- Browser-only.
Privacy when you sign
A signature image is still biometric-ish handwriting. Treat the PNG with care. We do not keep it.

Frequently asked questions
That depends on your jurisdiction and the document. This overlay is not a qualified e-signature product.
Apply, download, and repeat, or watermark with a name if you only need a mark, not a signature image.
Viewers differ. Assume a skilled editor can still manipulate PDFs. For high-stakes files, use a dedicated signing service.
