Everything you need in a free eSign PDF tool

Type or draw your signature

Create a cursive typed signature with script fonts, draw with your mouse or finger, or upload a PNG of your handwritten mark.

Place it where you need it

Stamp the last page, first page, or every page. Choose a corner or center, then tune size and opacity.

Keeps PDF text selectable

Only the signature image is drawn on top. Original pages, text, and layout stay intact.

100% browser-based

Signing runs with pdf-lib in your browser. Your document and signature stay on your device — nothing is uploaded to Focera.

How It Works

Adding a signature should be quick and private. Focera keeps the whole flow on one page — upload your PDF, create a signature, place it, and download without an account or desktop installer.

  1. Upload your PDF. Drag and drop a file up to 25 MB (max 50 pages), or click the zone to browse from your device.
  2. Create a signature. Type your name in a script font, draw on the pad, or upload a transparent PNG of your handwritten signature.
  3. Place, sign, and download. Choose position and pages, then download the signed PDF. Adjust and sign again anytime.

Jump back to the eSign PDF tool anytime to process another file.

Popular Use Cases

  • Contracts and agreements — Add your mark to the signature page before sending a copy back.
  • Letters and forms — Sign permission slips, cover letters, and simple paperwork without a printer.
  • Approvals and acknowledgments — Stamp last-page sign-off on proposals, quotes, and internal docs.
  • Reusable signature image — Upload a scanned PNG once and reuse it across documents.

Private by Design

Your PDF and signature are read and processed entirely in your browser. Focera does not receive the files, store pages, or run signing on a remote server. When you leave the page, temporary previews are revoked and nothing remains on our infrastructure.

  • PDF Watermark — Stamp a logo or seal on every page with tiling and rotation.
  • Merge PDF — Combine documents before adding your signature.
  • Split PDF — Extract the pages you need to sign, then recombine.
  • Unlock PDF — Remove a password before signing a protected file.
  • Compress PDF — Shrink the signed file for email and uploads.
  • PDF Editor — Reorder or rotate pages before placing a signature.
  • Background Remover — Cut out a handwritten signature on a transparent PNG.

FAQ

Is this eSign PDF tool free?

Yes. Sign and download unlimited PDFs with no account, subscription, watermark, or daily limit.

Are my PDFs uploaded to a server?

No. Signing runs entirely in your browser with pdf-lib. Your PDF and signature stay on your device.

Can I type or draw my signature?

Yes. Type your name in a script font, draw with your mouse or finger, or upload a PNG/JPG/WebP of your handwritten signature.

Is this a legally binding electronic signature?

This tool adds a visual signature image to your PDF. Whether that meets legal requirements depends on your jurisdiction and the document — it is not a certificate-based digital signature.

Can I sign password-protected PDFs?

Not directly. Unlock the file first with Unlock PDF, then upload the unlocked copy to sign.

Do I need to install software?

No. Open the page in a modern browser, create your signature, and download immediately.
