How to create your signature
- Choose Draw and sign in the box, or choose Type and enter your name.
- Pick black or blue ink and adjust the pen width or style.
- Download the transparent PNG and place it on a PDF, Word file or email.
Drawn or typed
A drawn signature looks like your real one and is best for documents you would normally sign by hand. A typed signature in a handwriting font is neat and consistent, which suits email footers and informal agreements.
Tips for a clean signature
Draw a little larger than you need and use a stylus or trackpad slowly; the image is cropped and can be scaled down without losing sharpness. Blue ink makes signed copies easy to tell apart from photocopies.
Using it safely
Keep the PNG file private, like a stamp. Many e-signature systems also record who signed and when, which an image alone does not, so use a dedicated service for important contracts.
Frequently asked questions
Is a signature image legally binding?
For many everyday agreements a simple electronic signature is accepted, but some documents need a certified e-signature or a handwritten one. Check what the other party requires.
How do I add it to a PDF?
Use the Sign PDF tool on this site, or insert the PNG as an image in your PDF editor and resize it.
Why a transparent background?
Without a white box around it, the signature sits naturally on lines and colored paper.
Is my signature stored?
No. It is drawn and exported in your browser and disappears when you close the page.
