Signature creator and PDF signer
Create a transparent signature PNG on its own, or place a drawn, typed, or uploaded signature on a PDF and download the signed copy. Use the PDF option for exam forms or personal documents when the recipient accepts an image signature. Your files and signature are processed in this browser.
You can create and download a transparent signature image without selecting a PDF.
Draw with a mouse, stylus, or finger. The drawing area prevents page scrolling while you sign.
Drag the signature to move it. Drag its corner handle to resize without changing its proportions.
Your PDF and signature stay in this browser tab. Nothing is saved to storage. They are cleared when you close or leave this page.
This tool places an image of your signature on the PDF. It is not a certificate-based digital signature. Whether it is accepted depends on who you send it to and the rules where you are; check with the recipient.
Drawing with a finger, mouse, or stylus gives you direct control over the shape. Typing is convenient when you want a consistent script-style mark. Uploading works if you already have a clear image of your handwritten signature.
For an uploaded signature, use dark ink against plain white paper, crop close to the mark, and photograph it in good light. This tool makes light pixels transparent; shadows, colored paper, and uneven lighting can leave visible background. Review the preview carefully before downloading.
The result is a regular PDF with an image drawn onto the chosen page or pages. The mark can be moved and resized before export, and the original PDF content remains beneath it. This tool does not create a certificate-based digital signature, verify a signer’s identity, lock the document, or determine whether a recipient will accept an image signature.
No PDF or signature is sent to a PixyTools server or saved in browser storage by this page. The selected source file, temporary preview, signature image, and generated result exist in the open tab while you work. Download the result if you want to keep it; closing or leaving the page releases its in-memory workspace. Do not use an image signature when the recipient requires a different signing method.
If you are preparing an image, sign on clean white paper with a dark pen. Use bright, even light and avoid shadows or folds. Keep the camera parallel to the page, then crop out extra space before uploading. A tightly cropped, high-contrast image is easier to position and less likely to show a paper-colored rectangle. The white-removal step works best on a simple light background; inspect the preview for leftover edges.
In the PDF preview, place the mark inside the page margins and leave room around nearby text. The corner handle preserves the image proportions as you resize. For an especially small mark, zoom the page preview in your browser while checking placement; for a larger mark, drag its edge inward if it would run past a page boundary. Use the page selector to inspect the current page. “All pages” repeats the same proportional position and width, so check the selected position against documents whose pages differ in size.
Some forms ask you to add a handwritten signature image to a PDF. If the instructions for your government exam application or personal document permit that method, this tool can place your drawn, typed, or uploaded mark on the PDF and save a separate copy. Follow the form’s own rules for signature style, size, position, file format, and any required signing method. The tool does not confirm that a particular authority or recipient will accept the result; check the instructions or ask the recipient before submitting it.
Continue working with your document using these PDF tools:
No. The PDF preview, signature creation, placement, and export run in this browser tab. This page does not send your selected PDF or signature to a PixyTools server and does not save the signature in localStorage or another browser-storage feature. Your working files remain in memory until you leave or close the page.
No. The tool places an image of your signature on the PDF page. It does not add a certificate, verify identity, or create a cryptographic signature. Ask the recipient which signing method they accept before using an image mark.
You can place a visual signature on an exam application or personal PDF when its instructions allow an image signature. Follow the form’s requirements for signature size, position, image format, and signing method. This tool cannot determine whether an exam authority or other recipient will accept a particular PDF.
The page supports pointer input, including touch, for drawing and for moving or resizing the signature. You can choose a PDF, draw with a finger, and use the page controls in a mobile browser. Available memory, screen size, and the browser’s file picker can affect how large a PDF your device can handle.
Yes. Choose “All pages” to use the same relative position and width on each page. Choose “This page” to apply it only to the page currently shown in the preview, or “Last page” to apply it only to the final page. Page rotation is not supported, and pages with rotation are rejected rather than placed incorrectly.
Sign on plain white paper with dark ink, capture it in good light, and upload a JPG, PNG, or WebP image. The tool makes light pixels transparent. Drawing or typing also creates a transparent PNG. You can download that PNG by itself without selecting a PDF. Strong shadows, gray paper, or colored backgrounds may not disappear cleanly, so inspect the preview before downloading.
Yes. Drag the signature itself to move it and drag the corner handle to resize it. The image keeps its original width-to-height ratio. Keep the complete mark inside the visible page; if a placement does not fit a selected page, the tool asks you to move or resize it before creating the output.
The original file is not overwritten. The tool creates a separate PDF download with the image added to the selected page or pages. Keep your original file if you may need to return to the unsigned version.
The output is a PDF containing an embedded PNG image on the chosen page or pages. PDF viewers can differ in how they display documents, so open the downloaded copy in the viewer your recipient uses and check the placement before sending it.
Not yet. When the previewed page is rotated, the tool shows a message and disables signing. If “All pages” includes a rotated page, the export is rejected. Use an unrotated PDF or correct the page rotation with a PDF tool before placing the signature.
No. The script font is self-hosted with this website and is loaded only when you choose the typed signature option. Your typed text is drawn into a temporary image in the page and is not stored as a reusable signature.
