How this works in your browser
Your name is rendered onto a canvas using a cursive or script typeface and your chosen colour, then exported as a PNG with a transparent background so it can sit over a document without a white box behind it. Because the text is drawn with a system font, the exact letterforms depend on what your device has available, which is why the same name can look slightly different across machines. It is worth being clear about what this produces: an image of a name in a handwriting-style font. It carries no cryptographic binding, no identity verification and no audit trail, which is the distinction between a decorative signature and a legally robust electronic one.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a legally binding electronic signature?
No, this generates a stylized image of your typed name for informal use - it is not a certified e-signature service.
Which fonts are used for the signature styles?
Common cursive and script-style system fonts; the exact appearance may vary slightly depending on your device.
Can I change the ink color?
Yes, use the color picker to choose any color for the signature.
Can I use this on a contract?
For informal agreements it is often acceptable, since many jurisdictions recognise a typed or drawn mark as an electronic signature. For anything consequential, a contract, a property document, anything likely to be disputed, use a dedicated e-signature service. Those record who signed, when, from where, and produce an audit trail that a picture of a name cannot.
How is this different from a real e-signature?
A certified service binds the signature to a verified identity and a tamper-evident record of the document. This produces an image. The image can be copied by anyone who has seen it, which is precisely the weakness a proper service exists to address.
Should I put my signature image online?
Be cautious. A signature image posted publicly or emailed widely can be lifted and reused. Treat it roughly as you would a scan of your handwritten signature, which is to say share it deliberately rather than casually.
Is my name sent anywhere?
No. The image is rendered inside your browser tab and never uploaded.
