Step 1: Upload Your PDF

Go to LazySign and click the upload area to select your PDF file. You can also drag and drop your PDF directly onto the upload zone.

LazySign supports PDF documents as well as common image formats (PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, WEBP). Your file stays on your computer throughout the entire process.

💡 Tip: LazySign handles multi-page PDFs too. You can navigate between pages and sign any page you need.

Step 2: Draw Your Signature

Once your document loads, you'll see the signature pad. Use your mouse, trackpad, or touchscreen to draw your signature naturally — just like signing a piece of paper.

You can customize your signature by choosing:

  • Pen color — Pick any color to match your style
  • Line thickness — Adjust how thin or thick your signature appears

If you're not happy with your signature, simply clear it and redraw. Take your time to get it just right.

💡 Tip: For best results, use a steady motion and sign at a comfortable pace, just like you would on paper.

Step 3: Place Your Signature

After drawing your signature, it appears on your document as a movable overlay. Simply drag itto the desired location — whether that's the signature line, the bottom of a page, or anywhere else.

You can also resize your signature by dragging its corners to make it larger or smaller as needed.

Step 4: Download Your Signed PDF

Once your signature is positioned perfectly, click the Download button. Your signed PDF will be saved to your computer instantly.

The entire process happens in your browser. Your file is never uploaded to any server — it never leaves your computer. This means your documents remain 100% private and secure.
