The signatures are built into the file and ready to send, with no watermark added.","How to sign a PDF",[23,26,29,32,35,38,41,44],{"q":24,"a":25},"How do I sign a PDF for free?","Open your PDF in the tool, choose \"Draw a signature\" or \"Type a signature\", then click \"Apply\" or drag it onto the page. Adjust the size and position, and download the signed file. There is no account, no payment, and no limit on how many documents you sign.",{"q":27,"a":28},"Is it safe to sign a private document here?","Yes. The whole process runs in your browser, so your PDF and your signature never leave your device. Nothing is uploaded, stored, or scanned. You can confirm this in your browser's network tab. That makes it safe for contracts, IDs, and other confidential files.",{"q":30,"a":31},"Can I sign a PDF on my phone?","Yes. The tool works in a mobile browser on iPhone and Android. Draw your signature directly on the screen with your finger, or type it and pick a font, then drag it onto the page. There is no app to install and nothing to upload.",{"q":33,"a":34},"Does signing reduce the quality of my PDF?","No. Your signature is added on top of the existing pages, and the rest of the document is left untouched: same text, same images, same resolution. The file is not re-compressed, so the quality of the original PDF stays exactly as it was.",{"q":36,"a":37},"Can I add more than one signature, or have someone else sign?","Yes. Create as many signatures as you need and place them anywhere on any page. You can mix drawn and typed signatures on the same document, which is useful when a second person has to sign next to you before you download the final PDF.",{"q":39,"a":40},"Is this a legally binding electronic signature?","The tool adds a visible signature image to your PDF, the same kind of electronic signature many agreements accept. It does not add a certificate-based digital signature or an audit trail. For documents that require a qualified digital signature, check what your specific agreement or authority asks for.",{"q":42,"a":43},"Will there be a watermark on the signed PDF?","No. Visual PDF adds no watermark and no branding to your signed PDF. You download the file exactly as you built it: just your document with the signatures you placed, at full quality, ready to send, print, or upload wherever you need it. There is no paid tier that removes a mark, because none is ever added.",{"q":45,"a":46},"Can I move or remove a signature after placing it?","Yes. Select any signature you placed to move, resize, or rotate it, or delete it if it landed in the wrong spot. Editing one signature updates every copy of it on the document. To start over, use \"Remove all\", which clears every signature you have added before you download.","Sign PDF: frequently asked questions",[49,53,57,61,65,69],{"title":50,"content":51,"icon":52},"Draw it or type it","Sketch your signature with a mouse, trackpad, or finger, or type your name and pick a handwriting-style font.
