How to Use Self Sign to Sign Your Own Document

Jul 31, 20262 min read

Not everything needs recipients. A form to return, a letter to certify, an application only you sign — Self Sign handles the whole thing in a minute. 

Steps 

1.  Click the arrow next to Create Request in the sidebar and choose the self-sign option. 

2.  Upload your PDF or Word document. 

3.  Drag your fields onto it — signature, date, text — and complete them on the spot. Your saved signature applies in one click. 

4.  Click finish. 

5.  Download the signed PDF, or email it straight to whoever needs it. 

Why Self Sign Beats Print-Sign-Scan 

•  Same tamper-evident seal as any Inkfree document — a self-signed PDF still carries verifiable integrity. 

•  Counts as a first-class document in your account: findable, downloadable, permanent. 

•  Takes about 60 seconds against ten minutes at the printer.
