What is a local signature record?
It embeds a signed metadata record — your name, the date, and a declared intent — directly into the PDF on your device. It is a permanent, visible record without a cloud signing service.
Local Signature Record
Embed a verifiable signing record into a PDF entirely on your device — no server, no third-party signing service, no subscription required.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as a legally binding e-signature?
No. This produces a locally embedded record, not a cryptographically certified signature from a qualified signing authority. For legally binding e-signatures, use a qualified provider.
Why would I use this instead of a signing service?
For internal records, personal agreements, or situations where you need a date-stamped intent without sharing data with a third-party service.
Is any data sent to a server?
No. The record is embedded locally in your browser and the document never leaves your device.
Is it safe? Are my files uploaded?
These tools run locally in your browser — for supported local operations your files are not uploaded to a server. Processing the document on your own device avoids sending it to a third party.
