Use the methods below to add a digital signature to a PDF file using a signature maker tool:
Choose a tool for creating signatures.
There are numerous online tools for creating signatures, such as MySignature, SmallPDF, and Canva. Because each tool has a unique collection of features and pricing options, you should pick one that best suits your requirements.
- Create an account with the signature maker of your choice. Before you can use most tools, you will need to register for an account and submit some personal data.
- To produce your digital signature, adhere to the instructions. Usually, this entails inputting your name, along with perhaps choosing a font and color for your signature. You might be able to use a mouse or touchscreen with some tools to draw your signature.
- Your digital signature should be saved as an image file. You can save your signature as a PNG or JPG file using the majority of signature creation software.
- With a PDF editor like Adobe Acrobat, open the PDF file you wish to sign.
- Choose “Image” from the drop-down menu when you click the “Insert” button in the top toolbar.
- Choose the image file containing your digital signature in the “Insert Image” window and press “Open”.
- To move the signature around the PDF, simply click and drag.
- Save the signed PDF file as a separate file.
- The PDF document should now display your digital signature. If more signatures are required on the same paper, simply repeat the procedure.
