eSign a PDF

No. Each signer gets their own link and signs in the browser — no account, nothing to install.

Your requests, their status and the signed copies are kept in your account so you can follow them and download the result. Signing up is free.

It is a simple electronic signature: each signer agrees to sign electronically, adds their signature, and every step is recorded in an audit trail that is attached to the signed PDF as a certificate page. It is not a certificate-based digital signature. Whether that is enough for a particular document depends on the document and where it is used.

Yes. Leave the email empty and copy their link to send yourself.

Yes — download the partially signed copy as soon as the first person signs.

It is uploaded over an encrypted connection and kept in your account, because the request needs it until everyone has signed; the signed copy is added to your files as well. Delete either whenever you like.

Yes, in the editor rather than here: open the PDF in Edit a PDF, type what you need with the Text tool, add your signature with Sign, and download it. eSign is for collecting other people’s signatures, on a computer or a phone.
