Frequently asked questions

Is signing my PDF private?

Yes. Your PDF is processed only to place the signature and is deleted automatically afterwards. Nothing is shared or stored long-term.

What signature image should I use?

Any PNG or JPG works. A PNG with a transparent background looks cleanest because the page shows through around your signature.

Can I sign more than the first page?

This free tool places one signature on page one. For multi-page placement, signature fields, or batch signing, create a free account or use the PDF API.

Does the signed PDF have a watermark?

No. The downloaded PDF contains only your signature and any name or date you add — no PDF4 branding or watermark.
