Free account & email verification
Start working now. Create a free account and verify your email only when your PDF is ready to download. Verification keeps automated abuse off the site — it's the reason we can keep every tool free forever with no paid plan, no watermark, and no upgrade trap.
Your privacy
Your files are processed entirely in your browser — never uploaded to a PDF Pelican server. We only store anonymous analytics about which tools people use, never your file contents.
About this tool
Sign PDFs online without uploading them. Every signature is drawn locally and baked into your PDF in the browser, so nothing leaves your device.
FAQ
Is this truly online and free?
Yes. No account, no payment, no install. The signing happens inside your browser tab.
Will the recipient see my signature is electronic?
Yes — it appears as an image stamped on the page. The PDF behaves like any signed document.
Can I sign on my phone?
Yes. The signature pad works with touch input, and the page preview is responsive.
