Sign PDF

Place an image of your signature on a PDF, for declarations and forms that need a signed document.

🔒 Files are processed in your browser and are not uploaded to GovBabu servers.

How to use

  1. Click the upload box and choose the PDF you want to sign. A preview of page 1 appears.
  2. Choose your signature image (JPG, PNG or WebP).
  3. Click on the page where the signature should go and adjust its size with the slider.
  4. Click “Apply signature & download”.

What to expect

  • Each file can be up to 15 MB.
  • The signature is added to page 1 only; other pages are kept as they are.
  • This places a picture of your signature. It is not a digital signature or certificate-based signature.
  • The result is rebuilt from page images, so text inside the original PDF will not be selectable or searchable.
  • This tool loads the open-source pdf.js reader from a public CDN the first time it is used; that fetches the reader code, not your file.

Common questions

Is this a legally valid digital signature?

No. It places an image of your handwritten signature on the page, the same as pasting it onto a printout. It does not create a certificate-based digital signature.

Can I sign a page other than the first?

Not at present. The signature is placed on page 1. Extract another page with Split PDF if you need to sign it.

Is my signature uploaded anywhere?

No. Both the PDF and the signature image stay in your browser; only the pdf.js reader code is downloaded.
