About this Sign PDF tool
Printing a document just to sign it and scan it back is slow. With this tool you sign PDFs directly in your browser: create a signature once, tap the page where it should go, then drag it into place and resize it. You can sign several pages, add your initials, and stamp today's date.
Because the document and your signature never leave your device, it's a safer choice for contracts, rental agreements, forms and HR paperwork than services that upload your files.

Is this a legally binding signature?
In many countries, including the UK, the EU (under eIDAS) and the US (under the ESIGN Act), a simple electronic signature like this is legally valid for most everyday agreements. Some documents, such as wills, property deeds or certain official forms, may require a handwritten or certified digital signature. If in doubt, check with the person or organisation asking for your signature.
