Draw vs Type — Which Should You Use?

Draw when you want your real signature: sign with your finger on a phone or a stylus on a tablet for the most natural result (a mouse works too — go slowly). Type when you need a clean, consistent signature-style image fast: pick a cursive font and it renders your name elegantly every time.

Both modes export a 2× resolution PNG with a transparent background by default, so the "ink" sits directly on any document — insert it into Word (Insert → Pictures) or stamp it onto a PDF with any PDF editor. Need the signature inside a PDF page you built from images? Pair with our Images to PDF tool.

Tips for a Better Signature

  • Use a phone or tablet — finger/stylus strokes look far more natural than mouse strokes.
  • Draw big — use the whole pad; the export downscales cleanly, never up.
  • Blue ink stands out on printed-then-scanned documents; dark ink looks native on digital PDFs.
  • Undo, don't restart — one bad stroke can be removed with Undo while keeping the rest.
  • Keep it consistent — download once, reuse the same PNG everywhere your signature is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a drawn or typed signature legally valid?
In many countries (US ESIGN, EU eIDAS, India IT Act) e-signatures are recognized for most everyday agreements, and a signature image is a common form. Requirements vary by document type — deeds/wills often need more. Confirm what's accepted for important contracts.
Is my signature uploaded to a server?
No. Drawing, typing and PNG export all run in your browser via HTML5 Canvas — the signature never leaves your device.
How do I put this signature on a PDF or Word document?
Download the PNG, then Insert → Pictures in Word, or use the image/stamp tool in any PDF editor. The transparent background makes it sit like real ink.
Why download with a transparent background?
Transparent PNGs show only the strokes — no white box — so the signature blends onto any page or form. Tick "White background" if you specifically need one.
Can I draw with my finger on a phone?
Yes — touch, stylus and mouse all work. Finger-on-phone usually beats mouse-on-desktop for natural strokes. The export stays sharp at 2× resolution.
