About this tool: Sign PDF
Create a visual signature, choose the PDF page, adjust size and position, preview placement and download the signed PDF. This is not certificate-backed digital signing.
The workflow keeps the document task focused on the selected PDF pages or settings and produces a downloadable result when processing succeeds.
Sign PDF is presented in the shared NexterHub tool layout so the working controls stay near the top while the method, example, limitations and related utilities remain available below the result.
How it works
Sign PDF reads and modifies the selected document in the browser with PDF libraries loaded only on PDF workflows; the build does not send the document to a NexterHub upload endpoint.
Practical example
Draw a signature, choose page 2, place it in the signature area and download the visually signed PDF.
Important notes
Keep an original copy of important documents and review page order, quality and output size before using the new PDF.
Privacy & processing
In the current NexterHub build, primary PDF processing runs in the browser and is not sent to a NexterHub upload endpoint.
