Draw it on screen

Open the Signature Maker and sign in the box with your mouse, finger or a stylus. Choose black or blue ink and pen size, then download a transparent PNG cropped to your signature.

From a signature on paper

Sign on clean white paper with a dark pen, photograph it in good light, crop tightly with Crop Image, and convert to PNG. A drawn signature is usually cleaner.

Use it

Insert it into Word or Google Docs as an image, place it on PDFs with Sign PDF or Adobe Reader's Fill & Sign, or add it to your email signature.

Keep it safe

Store the file privately and don't post it publicly – it's still your signature.

Frequently asked questions

Is a signature image legally valid?

For most everyday agreements in the US, UK and EU, yes; some documents need wet ink or witnesses.

Why transparent?

So there's no white box around it on coloured or lined documents.

Is my signature stored?

No, it never leaves your device.
