PDF signing link

Create a PDF signing link for prepared documents

A PDF signing link is useful when the document is ready but the signer is somewhere else. Signlark lets you upload the PDF, place the fields the recipient should complete, and share a focused browser link instead of asking them to print, scan, or understand a desktop PDF app.

1

Upload and review the PDF

Start with the final document you want signed. Signlark renders the pages in the browser so you can confirm the recipient will see the right version before you share it.

2

Prepare the signer fields

Use field detection as a starting point, then add or adjust text boxes, checkboxes, dates, initials, and signature areas where the recipient needs to act.

3

Create the signing link

Save the prepared document and generate a share link from the editor or dashboard. The link opens the guided signing experience for that PDF.

4

Send and collect the signed file

Share the URL by email, chat, or SMS. The recipient completes the fields in the browser and submits a finished copy you can download or track from your account.

FAQ

Common questions

What is a PDF signing link?

It is a shareable URL that opens a prepared PDF in a browser signing flow. The recipient follows the link, fills the fields you placed, signs, and submits the document.

Does the signer need an Signlark account?

No. The signer can open the shared link and complete their part in the browser. The person preparing and managing shared files should use an Signlark account.

Can I use a signing link for a scanned or flat PDF?

Yes. Signlark places fields on top of the visible PDF pages, so flat forms can still be prepared for typed answers, checkboxes, dates, and drawn signatures.

Can the recipient sign on a phone?

Yes. The recipient flow is designed for mobile browsers, including touch-friendly signatures and field navigation.

Do I need an account to use Signlark?

No for one-off work. Upload and edit in your browser without signing up. Create a free account when you want to save files, reuse signatures and stamps, or manage signing links from your dashboard.

Is Signlark free?

Core PDF workflows are free while Signlark is in beta. Future paid features will be labeled clearly before you use them.

Where does my PDF go?

For local editing, your file stays in your browser unless you choose to save or share it. Saved and shared files are tied to your Signlark account so you can access them later.

Can Signlark edit existing PDF text?

No. Signlark adds fillable overlays, signatures, stamps, and page changes on top of your PDF. It does not rewrite the original printed text layer.
