Questions people ask
Is a drawn signature legally binding?
In many countries an electronic signature you add yourself is valid for everyday agreements, but some documents (property, wills, some government forms) need a certified digital signature or a wet signature. Check what the recipient requires.
Can it remember my signature?
Only if you tick “Remember on this device”. It is then kept in this browser’s storage on your computer — never on a server — and you can replace it any time.
Can I sign a scanned document?
Yes. Signing works on any PDF, including scans and photos turned into PDFs.
Is Sign PDF on ActuallyFreeTools really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no daily limit, no watermark and no paid tier. Nothing is held back for paying users.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Sign PDF runs inside your browser, so your files are processed on your own device and never sent to a server. That is also why there is nothing to meter or charge for.
