Add your signature

This places a picture of your signature on the page. It is not a certificate-based digital signature.

How to edit a PDF

  1. Open your PDF. Drop it above or choose it from your device. The first page opens large, ready to work on.
  2. Pick a tool and press on the page. Text, Sign and Image place something at once; Highlight, Whiteout, Draw, Box and Line follow your drag. Select anything you placed to move it, resize it or change its colour.
  3. Fill the form and arrange the pages. If the PDF has fillable fields, type straight into them. Use the page list beside the editor to reorder, rotate or remove pages.
  4. Download. Your copy is rebuilt as you work, so the download is ready the moment you are. Undo and redo cover every step.

What you can add

Text
Click where it should go and type. Pick the size, a sans, serif or mono face, bold, and the colour. Long lines wrap inside the box you set.
Signature
Draw it with a mouse, finger or pen, or type your name in a handwriting style. It is placed as a picture you can move and resize.
Images and logos
Add a JPG, PNG, WebP or GIF. Transparent PNG logos keep their transparency, and phone photos stay the right way up.
Highlight
A translucent marker that multiplies over the page, so the words under it stay readable when printed.
Box, line and freehand
Circle a total, underline a clause or sketch an arrow, in four ink colours and four thicknesses.
Whiteout
Paints an opaque white box over part of the page so it no longer shows when the page is viewed or printed.

What this editor does not do

Everything you add sits on top of the existing pages. The editor does not re-flow, retype or change text that is already in the PDF. To replace a word, cover it with whiteout and type the new word in a text box over it.

Whiteout hides content visually; it does not delete it. The covered text is still in the file and can be found by search or copied out. For anything confidential, such as an account number, a whiteout is not a secure redaction.

A drawn or typed signature is a picture of your signature. It is not a certificate-based digital signature, and it does not make a document certified or legally accepted anywhere on its own.

Text boxes use the PDF standard fonts (Helvetica, Times and Courier), which cover Latin letters, numbers and common symbols. Text in other scripts is drawn into the file as a picture of the same box, so it shows correctly but cannot be selected or searched. Form fields keep the PDF's own font, so they accept Latin text only.

It runs in your browser

The PDF is opened, drawn and rebuilt on your device with open-source code. It is never uploaded to a server, which matters for contracts, forms with personal details and anything you would not send to a stranger. There is no account, no watermark on your file and no page limit beyond what your device's memory can hold.

Common questions

Can I change the text that is already in my PDF?
No. This editor adds content on top of the pages and does not re-flow or edit existing text. To change a word, cover it with whiteout and type the replacement in a text box placed over it.
How do I sign a PDF?
Open the PDF, choose Sign, then draw your signature or type your name in a handwriting style. It lands in the middle of the page; drag it into place and resize it from a corner. Download when you are done.
Can I fill in a PDF form?
Yes, if the form has fillable fields. They appear as tinted boxes on the page; type into them, tick the boxes and pick from the lists. They stay fillable in the downloaded file. For a scanned form with no fields, use text boxes instead.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser on your device. The file is never sent to a server.
Is whiteout safe for hiding private information?
No. Whiteout covers content so it does not show, but the original text is still inside the file. Do not rely on it to hide confidential details.
Is a signature added here a legal digital signature?
It is a picture of your signature, like signing on paper and scanning it. It is not a certificate-based digital signature. Whether a signed document is accepted depends on who you send it to.
Can I reorder, rotate or delete pages while editing?
Yes. The page list beside the editor lets you drag pages into a new order, rotate them and remove them. Anything you placed on a page moves and turns with it.
Can I undo a change?
Yes. Undo and Redo sit at the end of the toolbar, and Ctrl+Z or Cmd+Z works too. Moving or resizing something counts as one step.
Can I add text in languages other than English?
Yes. Latin-script text is written as real, searchable text. Other scripts are drawn into the PDF as a picture of the text box, so they look right but cannot be selected or searched.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. It runs in any modern mobile browser. You can place and drag objects with a finger and draw a signature with it.
Is it free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark on your file and no limit on the number of PDFs you edit.
