Frequently asked questions

Is a drawn signature legally valid?

In many places a simple electronic signature is accepted for ordinary agreements, but rules differ by country and document type. For regulated papers, check whether a certified digital signature is required.

How can I make my signature look neat?

Draw it slowly with a mouse or finger on a large area, or type your name and pick a handwriting style. Place it on the signature line and resize it so it matches the surrounding text.

Can I reuse my signature for other documents?

You can create a transparent signature image with the signature maker and add it to future PDFs. Keep it in a safe place, since anyone with the image could paste it into a document.
