Benefits

Private by design

Your PDF stays on your device while Sign PDF works. Sign PDF never sends it to a server, so confidential work stays confidential.

Instant results

There is no upload step, so Sign PDF starts the moment you add your PDF.

No signup, no limits

Use Sign PDF as many times as you want. Sign PDF asks for no account, adds no watermark and keeps no paid tier gating the output.

Works offline

Once the page has loaded, Sign PDF keeps working without a connection, which helps on flights and locked-down networks.

Who it is for

For legal and finance teams

Legal and finance teams use Sign PDF to handle sensitive documents without installing software: draw your signature on a PDF on a shared or locked-down machine.

For HR and admin teams

Sign PDF helps HR and admin teams process paperwork quickly, since your PDF never leaves the laptop it was created on.

For freelancers

Sign PDF helps freelancers send client deliverables quickly, since your PDF never leaves the laptop it was created on.

How it works

Sign PDF loads your PDF into memory, applies the change you requested to the underlying data rather than to a screenshot of it, and writes a fresh copy for download. Your original stays untouched on disk, and every step of Sign PDF happens inside your browser sandbox.

Frequently asked questions

Is Sign PDF free to use?

Yes. Sign PDF is completely free with no account, no trial and no usage cap. Every feature on this page is available on the first visit.

Does Sign PDF upload your PDF to a server?

No. Sign PDF processes your PDF inside your browser, so it never reaches a DocTools server. That also means the tool keeps working if your connection drops mid-task.

Is there a file size limit?

The practical ceiling is your device's available memory rather than a server quota. Files up to roughly 100 MB work comfortably on a typical laptop in Sign PDF.

Do I need to install anything to use Sign PDF?

No installation is needed. Sign PDF runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop and on mobile, with no extension or plugin.

Can I use Sign PDF on a phone or tablet?

Yes. The Sign PDF interface adapts to small screens and supports touch input, though very large jobs are faster on a desktop browser.

What happens to your PDF when I close the tab?

It is discarded. Sign PDF keeps everything in temporary browser memory, so closing the tab removes every trace of the session.
