How to sign a PDF without printing (step by step)
Printing, signing by hand, scanning and resending is slow and error-prone. Today you can sign a PDF and collect signatures from others without touching a printer.
1. Upload your document
Upload the PDF you need to sign or send for signature. In Firmiu you just drag it in and enter the name and email of the person who must sign.
2. The signer receives a link
The person gets an email with a unique, secure link. They don't need to create an account or install anything: they open the link and sign right from the browser, even on their phone.
3. Signing and verification
The signer draws their signature on screen and confirms with a verification code. That step adds security and records who signed.
4. Download the signed PDF
The document is signed and ready to download, with an audit trail logging the date, device and location. No paper, no waiting, and legally backed.
Tips so nothing goes wrong
Double-check the recipient's email before sending: the signing link travels by email. And if the person is slow to sign, a friendly reminder is usually enough to close the document.
Always keep the signed PDF and its audit trail together: they are the proof that the document was signed and by whom.
