How to create a signature online

  1. Type or draw it

    Type your name in the box at the top of this page, or switch to Draw and sign with your mouse, your finger or a stylus. Undo a stroke or clear the box to start again.

  2. Choose a style and an ink

    Pick one of four cursive and handwriting styles for a typed signature, and black, dark blue or blue ink. The preview shows what you'll download.

  3. Download your signature

    Download a PNG with a transparent background, cropped to your signature and sharp enough to print. A drawn signature can also be saved as an SVG.

A signature maker that keeps your signature private

  • Cursive signature generator

    Four handwriting fonts, from flowing cursive scripts (Great Vibes and Allura) to everyday handwriting (Homemade Apple and Kalam). See your name in every style before you choose.

  • Draw your signature online

    Sign with a mouse, a finger on a phone or tablet, or a stylus. Your strokes are smoothed into clean curves, the same way PDFZyro draws signatures in the app.

  • Transparent PNG in high resolution

    The picture has no background, so it sits cleanly on a page. It's made at three times screen resolution and cropped to your signature with a small margin.

  • Nothing uploaded, nothing saved

    Your browser makes the picture. What you type or draw is never sent to PDFZyro, saved or logged: close the page and it's gone.

  • Free, with no account

    Make as many signatures as you like, without signing up and without a watermark.

  • Then sign for real

    Sign PDFs with your signature in PDFZyro, or send documents for e-signature with consent, an audit trail and a sealed PDF.

Private by design

  • Encrypted and private

    Every file is encrypted before it's stored, and only you and the people you share with can open it.

  • Your original stays safe

    Every change is saved as a new version. The original is never changed, and you can restore it at any time.

  • No watermarks

    Files you save never get a watermark, on any plan, including the free one.

  • Works in your browser

    Nothing to install. Use it on Windows, Mac, Linux, Chromebooks, iPhone, iPad and Android.

Questions and answers

Do I need an account?

No. The signature generator at the top of this page works without an account, right in your browser: nothing you type or draw is uploaded or saved. Create a free PDFZyro account when you want to sign PDFs, keep your signature for next time, or send documents for e-signature.

Is a signature image legally binding?

A picture of your signature is not, on its own, an electronic signature with the evidence behind it. In the United States, the ESIGN Act and UETA recognize electronic signatures for most documents, but if a signature is questioned you need to show who signed, that they agreed to sign electronically and that the document hasn't changed since. A pasted image shows none of that. For agreements, use PDFZyro's e-signature: signers agree to sign electronically, every step is recorded in an audit trail, and the final PDF is sealed so any change can be detected. Some documents, such as wills, have special rules. This is general information, not legal advice.

Can I sign a PDF with it?

Yes. Download the PNG and add it to the PDF as a picture in your PDF app. Or sign directly in PDFZyro with Sign PDF: type, draw or upload your signature, place it with your initials and the date, and download a signed PDF that is sealed so later changes can be detected. Signing your own documents isn't counted towards the Free plan's daily tasks.

Which signature style should I choose?

Choose a style that looks like the way you sign and stays readable when it's small. Great Vibes and Allura are flowing cursive scripts, Homemade Apple looks like quick pen handwriting, and Kalam is closer to neat print. Many people pick a cursive style for a formal look.

Can I create a signature on my phone?

Yes. Switch to Draw and sign with your finger: the page doesn't scroll while you draw. Or type your name and pick a style. The PNG downloads to your phone, ready to use.

Is this signature generator free?

Yes. It's free with no limit: no account, no watermark and nothing to install. A free PDFZyro account adds signing your own PDFs and 3 e-signature requests a month; Pro includes 25 a month and is free to try for 7 days, with no card needed.

Need to sign a document, not just make a signature?
