PDF tools · sign
Your signature, on your document, placed as part of the page. Draw it or type it, put it where it belongs, and take the signed file away. Everything runs in your browser; the document is never uploaded.
For signing your own document: a permission form, an agreement, a school slip. Self-signing only.

This is self-signing: your own signature on your own document. It is not a legal e-signature service. It sends no signing requests to other people, keeps no audit trail, and issues no certificate of completion. Where a contract or an authority requires a certified e-signature, use one of those services; the suites charge for exactly that server work. The line is printed here, before you pick a file, so the tool is never mistaken for more than it is.

A typed signature is your name set in a signature style. It is not a copy of your hand, and it does not become one by being placed on the page. If the document needs your hand, draw it.
Pick a PDF to begin.
Your drawn or typed signature becomes a small transparent picture, which the PDF engine draws straight into the chosen pages at the corner and size you picked, alongside your initials and the date when you ask for them. Because it is drawn into the page content, the signed file prints and displays the same everywhere.
Placement is by corner and size, not by finding the signature line in your document: this page does not read your file, so check the signed copy before you send it on, especially on forms with small signature boxes. A typed signature is your name set in a signature style, not a copy of your hand; where a document needs your actual hand, draw it.

No, and the page says so before you start. This places your signature on your own document, drawn into the page itself. It has no certificate, no audit trail and no identity check, so it is not a substitute where a certified e-signature is required. For the everyday jobs (signing a form, an agreement copy, a school permission slip) it is exactly what it looks like: your signature, on the page.
No. Sending signing requests, tracking who signed and issuing certificates are things a server has to do, and this site has no server in the job. Suites that sell that are selling the server work, not the drawing of the signature.
The signature is drawn into the page content, the way ink sits on paper, not attached as a movable sticker annotation. Anyone with a full PDF editor and enough determination can alter any PDF, signed or not; what this page does not do is leave the signature floating on top as a separate layer.
Nowhere. It is read into this page and signed in your browser; the signature you draw never leaves the page either. Watch the network panel while it works if you want to check.
