What is an electronic signature?
An e-signature is a way of signing PDF files electronically, commonly used in legal, business, and personal contexts. It does the same job as a handwritten signature: it gives you a secure, verifiable way to show agreement or approval on contracts, forms, and other important documents — without any physical paperwork.
What's the difference between an electronic and a digital signature?
The two terms are often used interchangeably, and both let you sign documents online — but there’s an important distinction.
‘Electronic signature’ is the broad term: it covers any digital way of signing, from typing your name or initials to inserting an image of your handwritten signature, as well as more complex encryption-based methods.
A ‘digital signature’ is a more secure subset: it uses advanced encryption to verify the signer’s identity and guarantee the document hasn’t been altered, adding an extra layer of protection.
With Lead PDF Editor, you can use a simple electronic signature — no encryption involved — that is still legally binding.
Does my drawn signature need to match my passport?
When e-signing PDFs with an online tool, it’s generally wise to draw a signature that closely matches the one in your passport. Keeping them consistent helps confirm authenticity, especially for legal and official documents.
How does Lead PDF Editor protect signed documents?
Document security is our top priority at Lead PDF Editor. Strong safeguards — including SSL certificates, Server-Side Encryption, and the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) — keep your files secure, and our Google Safe Browsing verification helps shield you from malware and phishing.
With these measures working together, your documents stay protected at every step, so you can sign PDFs online with confidence.
