What Sign PDF does
Sign PDF is a browser-based Filozy tool built for this task: Draw, type or place a signature on the page. It runs on this device, creates a separate result, and does not require an account or document upload.
Use Sign PDF to choose one PDF, draw, type, upload, resize, and place a visual signature. This creates a visible signature mark locally; it is not a certificate-backed digital signature or timestamped identity proof. Filozy starts the document engine only after you choose a file, performs the work inside this tab, and creates a new result for you to save. Your selected document, its filename, and its contents are not sent to Filozy.
