Why sign PDFs online instead of printing?

Printing, signing, scanning, and emailing PDFs wastes an average of 15 minutes per document. Online signing takes under 60 seconds. Multiply that by the number of contracts you sign per month, and the time savings are massive.

Electronic signatures are legally binding under the ESIGN Act (federal) and UETA (adopted by 47 states). TextoraSign provides a complete audit trail for every signature, including IP address, geolocation, device, and timestamp.

What types of PDFs can you sign online?

Any PDF can be signed electronically with TextoraSign: contracts, agreements, NDAs, proposals, purchase orders, leases, disclosures, and more. The only documents that typically require wet-ink signatures are wills, divorce decrees, and court orders in some jurisdictions.
