How to sign a PDF
Printing a document just to sign it and scan it back is a waste of time and paper. Signing a PDF directly lets you drop your signature where it belongs and send it straight back.

Why signing on-device matters
A document you're signing is usually one you'd rather not hand to a stranger's server — an agreement, a form with personal details. Signing in your browser means it's never uploaded.
You get the same result as print-sign-scan, without the printer, the scanner, or the crooked photo.
Placing the signature cleanly
Drop the signature on the actual signature line and size it to match — oversized signatures look off and can cover nearby text.
If the form has a date field next to it, fill that in the same pass so the document is complete before you send it.
