Signature Tool

The classic signature procedure is absurdly cumbersome: print the document, sign, scan it back, and the result is crooked and gray. The signature tool breaks this cycle and creates a clean, digital signature you can place into your documents as often and as precisely as you like - no printer, no scanner, no skew.

You have three routes to a signature. Draw lets you sign directly on a canvas with mouse, trackpad or finger - just like on paper. Type turns your name into a handwritten-looking signature with a choice of handwriting fonts. Upload takes a photo of your real signature and cuts it out so the white background disappears.

For the typed variant there are ready styles that fit the occasion: from a formal signature through a more casual variant to a compact or extra-large form. Additionally there are plain initials for quick signing off and a paraph - the short mark you use to initial each page of a contract without signing in full every time.

On export you pick the format by purpose. PNG with a transparent background is the best choice for laying the signature losslessly over a PDF or contract. SVG stays razor-sharp at any size, ideal for templates and letterheads. JPEG is the classic when a simple image is enough.

Generation runs server-side so the signature is optimized and cleanly cut out - especially when uploading a photo, that is the difference between a gray box and a real, transparent signature. You drop the result straight into your documents, for example into a contract edited with the PDF editor.

Important and honest: an inserted image signature is convenient and perfectly sufficient for many everyday documents, but it is not a qualified electronic signature (QES) under the eIDAS regulation. For contracts that strictly require written form, or for legally binding digital signatures, you need a corresponding QES procedure. For signature images, paraphs and normal correspondence, this tool is exactly right.
