Draw or Type Your Signature Online

Two ways to create a signature. Draw: use your mouse, trackpad, or touchscreen to sign on the canvas, undo strokes one at a time, adjust pen thickness, and export a transparent PNG or SVG. Type: enter your name, pick a signature-style handwriting font, adjust the size and ink color, and export a transparent PNG. Both modes produce clean, transparent-background images ready to drop into PDFs, email signatures, contracts, and forms.

Everything runs in your browser. The canvas strokes and the typed text never leave your device — there's no upload, no account, no tracking of your signature content.

Signature Generator Features

Draw With Mouse, Trackpad, or Finger

Touch, stylus, and mouse are all supported. Draw naturally and the canvas smooths strokes in real time.

Typed Name → Signature Font

Prefer typing? Switch to Type mode, enter your name, and it renders in a signature-style handwriting font instantly.

Adjustable Pen Thickness and Ink Color

Thin line for a delicate signature, thicker for a bolder look. Pick the ink color that matches your official signature.

Undo, Redo, Clear

Walk back individual strokes with Undo, or wipe the canvas and start over. Drawing a perfect signature usually takes a few tries.

Transparent-Background PNG + SVG Export

PNG for quick use in PDFs and emails. SVG (draw mode only) stays crisp at any size — paste into design tools without losing quality.

Fully Private & Free

Runs entirely in your browser. No sign-up, no watermark, no usage limit. Your signature stays on your device.

What People Use a Signature Generator For

Drop a transparent PNG signature onto any PDF using your PDF reader's image-stamp tool, or insert the SVG directly in design tools.

Email signatures

Add a personal handwritten feel to email signoffs with a small transparent PNG of your signature.

Online forms and rental agreements

Upload your signature image as the required visual signature on forms that accept image uploads.

Invoices and business letters

Paste a clean PNG signature into Word, Google Docs, or Pages before exporting to PDF.

Thank-you notes and newsletters

Sign off digital cards and newsletter send-offs with a personal touch instead of a typed name.

Signature Generator — FAQ

Is a signature made here legally binding?+

Image signatures created with this tool are sometimes called "wet-ink equivalent" and are broadly accepted for routine documents in most jurisdictions. For high-stakes legal documents (contracts, real estate, court filings), use a dedicated e-signature service like DocuSign or Adobe Sign, which provide cryptographic audit trails that a simple image cannot.

Draw mode vs Type mode — which should I use?+

Draw mode produces a signature that actually matches your real handwriting. Type mode is faster but the result is a handwriting font, not your real writing — good for a branded logo-style signature, less good if the signature needs to be recognizably yours.

Why export PNG vs SVG?+

PNG is widely supported — drop it into any PDF reader, email client, or word processor. SVG (draw mode only) is a vector format that stays crisp at any size; use it in design tools like Figma, Illustrator, or Inkscape. Typed signatures can only export as PNG because the font isn't embedded in the SVG.

Is my signature sent to a server?+

No. Drawing, typing, rendering, and export all happen in your browser. Your signature never reaches our servers, is never stored, and is never seen by anyone else.

Can I use it on my phone or tablet?+

Yes. The canvas supports touch and stylus input, so you can sign with a finger on a phone or an Apple Pencil / S Pen on a tablet.

Is there a watermark on the output?+

No watermark. The PNGs and SVGs you download are clean and yours to use personally or commercially.
