## How signing a PDF works

Sign a PDF yourself in your browser, or send it to others: FynePDF emails each signer a link, collects every signature and returns one completed PDF.

- **Sign it yourself**: Draw with a mouse or finger, type your name, or upload an image of your signature, then add initials and dates.
- **Ask others to sign**: Add each signer's email and mark where they sign, or let them choose. They need no account.
- **Track it to the end**: Your Library shows who has signed. Send reminders, and get the final PDF with a signing record page.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I draw my signature, upload an image, or type my name?

All three methods work in FynePDF's Sign PDF tool. Draw with a mouse, trackpad or finger; upload a transparent PNG of your existing signature; or type your name and have it rendered in a signature font. Signed-in users can save a signature for reuse, so the next document takes one click. Signatures are drag-and-drop and can be resized to fit any field.

### Can I send a document to someone else to sign?

Yes. In Sign PDF, choose Me and others, add each person's name and email, and mark where they sign or let them place it themselves. FynePDF emails each of them a private link, and they sign on any phone or computer with no account. Your Library shows who has signed and lets you send reminders. Once everyone has signed, you get the completed PDF with a signing record page. A free account can ask 5 people a month; Professional asks 200 and Premium 500.

### Do the people I ask to sign need a FynePDF account?

No. Each signer gets an email with a private link that works for 14 days. They open it on a phone or computer, draw, type or upload their signature, and confirm. They can also decline with a reason, and you'll get an email if they do.

### How do I know when everyone has signed?

Your Library shows each request's status: who has signed, who hasn't, and when the link expires. You can remind each signer up to three times, a day apart, and you get an email once the last person signs.

### Is the Sign PDF tool free to use online?

Yes. Signing a PDF yourself is free with no sign-up, on files up to 100MB with 10 tasks per day. Asking others to sign needs a free account, which can ask 5 people a month. Professional at $7/month raises files to 2GB and asks 200 people a month, and Premium raises files to 5GB and 500 people.

### Is it safe to use Sign PDF on FynePDF? Are my files secure?

Yes. When you sign a PDF yourself, it is signed in your browser and the document does not need to be uploaded. When you ask others to sign, the document is kept in your Library so each signer can open it from their private link, which stops working after 14 days. Processing is automated, FynePDF staff do not manually read your document, and files are never used to train AI models. Saved signatures live only in your own account.

### What's the difference between an electronic signature and a digital signature?

An electronic signature can be drawn, typed, or uploaded as an image. A certificate-based digital signature uses cryptography to identify changes to a signed file. FynePDF's Sign PDF tool places signature images and other fields on the page; it does not issue certificates or qualified electronic signatures.

### Does Sign PDF add a certificate-based signature?

No. Sign PDF adds a drawn, typed, or uploaded signature to the page. It does not provide a certificate-based, advanced, or qualified electronic signature. If a recipient requires one of those methods, use a signing service that supports the required process.

### Is an electronic signature legally binding?

Acceptance depends on the document, recipient, and applicable signing requirements. This tool adds a signature to the PDF; it does not verify identity or determine legal validity. When others sign through FynePDF, the completed PDF ends with a signing record page: who signed, when, and a fingerprint of the document as sent. Check the required signing process with the recipient before relying on the completed file.

### Can I use the Sign PDF tool on Mac, Windows, or mobile?

Yes. FynePDF's signing tool works directly from your browser, so it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android with no installation. Drawing a signature with a finger on a phone or tablet usually gives a better result than a mouse.

### Can I add initials, dates and checkmarks as well as a signature?

Yes. Alongside your signature you can add initials, free text, the current date, and checklist marks including ticks, crosses and circles. Contracts routinely need initials on individual clauses and a date beside each signature, and multi-page agreements often need boxes ticked, all of it placed in one pass before downloading.
