Is Edit PDF & Signature private?

Everything runs locally in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to StackPDF servers.

Do I need an account to use Edit PDF & Signature?

No. StackPDF is free to use without signing up or creating an account.

Does Edit PDF & Signature work offline?

After the page and libraries load, processing happens on your device. A connection is only needed to load the app the first time.

Can I sign a PDF without uploading it?

Yes. Your signature is drawn and stamped entirely in the browser. The document never goes to StackPDF servers.

Is e-signing free with no document limit?

Yes. Sign as many PDFs as you need with no account, no free-tier document cap, and no upload-size paywall.

Can I add typed text as well as a signature?

Yes. Place a drawn signature and optional printed name or other text where you need it on the page before saving.

Is a drawn signature legally binding?

Laws vary by country and use case. StackPDF helps you place a signature image on a PDF; it is not a certified digital-signature (PKI) service. Check local rules for contracts.
