Send a PDF for signature with a focused signing link
When a PDF needs someone else's signature, an attachment often turns into a print-scan loop or a long email thread. Signlark lets you prepare the fields first, save the document to your account, and send a signing link the recipient can complete from a browser on desktop or mobile.
