Create Your Digital Signature
Printing out a PDF just to sign it with a pen, scan it, and email it back is an infuriating waste of time. Our Digital Signature Generator provides a smooth, pressure-sensitive canvas where you can draw your signature using your mouse, trackpad, or smartphone finger, and instantly download it as a transparent PNG.
Why Transparent PNG is Mandatory
A digital signature is useless if it has a solid white background. Here is why the format matters:
- Document Layering: When you paste a signature into Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat, it usually sits on top of the text or dotted line. If your signature has a white background, it will block out the text underneath it.
- The Alpha Channel: Our generator exports your signature as a PNG file with a fully transparent alpha channel. This means only the black ink exists; the background is completely invisible.
- Color Options: While black ink is the standard, many legal professionals prefer blue ink for digital signatures to easily differentiate the 'wet' signature from the printed black text of the contract.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a digital drawn signature legally binding?
In most countries (including the US under the ESIGN Act), a digital mark intended to sign a document is legally binding. However, for highly sensitive documents (like mortgages), you may be required to use encrypted platforms like DocuSign.
Is my signature stored on your servers?
Absolutely not. We understand the massive security risk of storing signatures. The canvas operates 100% locally in your browser. The moment you refresh the page, the signature is permanently deleted.
How can I draw it smoother on a computer?
Drawing with a mouse is notoriously difficult. For the best result, load this page on your smartphone or iPad and draw your signature with your finger or a stylus, then email the downloaded PNG to your computer.
