SIGNATURES
Three ways to sign any PDF
Whether you prefer to draw freehand, type your name, or use a saved signature, DraftPDF has you covered.
Draw your signature: Use your mouse, trackpad, or touchscreen to draw a freehand signature directly on the PDF page.
Type your name: Choose a handwriting-style font and type your signature — ideal when you need something clean and consistent.
Saved signatures: DraftPDF remembers your signatures so you can reuse them across documents without redrawing each time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you get started.
How do I add a signature to a PDF?
Step-by-step guide
Open your PDF in DraftPDF and click the Signature tool in the left toolbar. Draw, type, or select a saved signature, then click to place it anywhere on the page. Drag to reposition it, resize as needed, and save the file.
Is my signature kept private?
Privacy & security
Yes. All signature processing happens locally inside your browser using WebAssembly. Your document and signature image are never uploaded to a server.
Is a DraftPDF signature legally binding?
Legal validity
DraftPDF places an ink-style annotation signature, which is appropriate for many internal workflows and document reviews. For legally binding e-signatures with audit trails (such as contracts requiring compliance with eIDAS or ESIGN), you should use a dedicated e-signature platform like DocuSign.
Can I reuse a signature across multiple documents?
Saved signatures
Yes. DraftPDF saves your signatures locally so you can select them from the signature panel for any subsequent document without redrawing.
