Signing a PDF

Under Sign PDF in the menu under your name in the top right, you can upload a PDF, place your saved signatures on it and download the signed file. You can also add password protection and a digital signature, which costs credits. The page is available to editors and admins.

1. Upload the PDF: drop the file onto the upload area, or click it and choose the file. You can also start signing with the Sign button shown next to an email attachment or another attached PDF.

2. Create a signature: if you have no saved signature yet, you are asked to create one first: draw it with a mouse or stylus, or upload an image of it. Later, Manage signatures lets you add new ones or change existing ones.

3. Place it:

• Click a signature in the right panel, then click on the PDF where you want it (Esc cancels).
• Or drag the signature straight onto the PDF.
• Double-click a signature to drop it in the middle of the current page.

4. Adjust: drag a placed signature to move it and resize it from its corners. Press Delete to remove the selected placement. On a multi-page document, the copy icon in the Placements list copies a signature to other pages (all pages, all but the first, even or odd pages, or a range such as 3-5, 8). Switch pages with the thumbnails on the left; the zoom buttons are at the bottom.

5. Options and saving:

• Password protection – the signed PDF can only be opened with a password.
• Digital signature – embeds a certificate in the PDF and adds a QR code that points to a public verification page. This costs credits; the price depends on your company's signature level, which an admin sets under Team Settings → Advanced → Digital Signature.

Finally click Sign and Save and download the signed PDF.

The Signed documents list at the bottom of the page shows earlier signed files; the password of a protected document can be revealed after entering your own password.
