Frequently asked questions

Is an electronic signature legally valid?

In many countries an electronic signature is accepted for many kinds of documents, but the rules differ by place and document type. This tool makes the signature; it does not give legal advice.

How do I sign a PDF on my phone?

Open this page on your phone, add the PDF, choose Sign, and draw with your finger.

Is my signature stored?

It is saved only in your own browser, if you allow it, so you can reuse it.

How do I get someone else to sign?

In the signature pop-up choose Email sign. Each person gets a private link, can only sign (the document is locked), and everyone receives the signed PDF. This is part of the paid plans.

Is eSign PDF free?

Yes, and you do not need an account. The free plan allows up to 20 MB and 5 files at a time, and 10 free uses a day. After that you can come back tomorrow or choose a plan. The paid plans (Plus and Pro) remove the wait and raise the file size limit to 250 MB and 500 MB.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Open the page and use it. There is nothing to install, and it works on phones, tablets and computers.

What if something goes wrong?

Open Support from the menu at the top of the page and tell us what happened. A use that fails is not counted against your limit.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. It works in current versions of Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox on phones, tablets and computers. Very large files can be slow on older phones.
