FILEDROP SIGN
Send PDFs for electronic signature
Upload a PDF, place the fields you need, and send a signing link. Your recipient can type or draw a signature, and you can download the completed document with its signing record.
For one signer or a whole recipient list.
From PDF to signed copy
- 01 Upload a PDF and place fields
- 02 Send a private link by email
- 03 Recipient signs and consents
- 04 Download the signed PDF and record
A straightforward workflow for documents that need a standard electronic signature.
HOW IT WORKS
Prepare, send, and keep the record
Build a request in three steps. FileDrop handles the signing link and keeps the completed files together in the app.
01 · PREPARE
Place fields on your PDF
Upload a PDF and position signature and other fields on its pages. Name the document so it is easy to find later.
02 · SEND
Invite your signer
Enter one recipient’s name and email, or upload a CSV or Excel list for separate requests. Each person receives their own signing link.
03 · COMPLETE
Download the results
The signer types or draws their signature and explicitly consents. Download the signed PDF and its completion record after signing.
ONE DOCUMENT, MANY RECIPIENTS
Send signature requests in a batch
Prepare one PDF, then upload a recipient list as CSV or Excel. FileDrop creates an independent document copy and signing link for each row.
- Include name and email columns
- Add columns that match your document field labels to prefill each recipient’s copy
- Send up to 500 recipients in one import
Example: onboarding forms
Prepare the same agreement for a group of new hires. Put each person’s name and email in a spreadsheet; add a Department column if the PDF has a matching field.
Each recipient gets a separate copy to sign, so their responses and completed document stay distinct.
AFTER YOU SEND
Follow every request through completion
See the status of each signer in your FileDrop workspace. Send a reminder when needed, cancel a request, or resend a new link after cancellation.
A record alongside the signed PDF
FileDrop records consent, timestamps, signing activity, and document hashes. Once the request is complete, you can download the signed document and a separate completion record.
The record describes the signing process; it does not verify a signer’s identity.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Electronic signature FAQs
Which files can I upload?
PDF files up to 25 MB. Password-protected PDFs are not supported.
Does the recipient need a FileDrop account?
No. The recipient opens the email signing link to review and sign the document.
Can I send one document to many people?
Yes. Upload a CSV, XLSX, or XLS file with name and email columns. Each row receives a separate copy and link.
What kind of signature is this?
FileDrop Sign provides a standard electronic signature: a typed or drawn mark with recorded consent and signing history. It does not provide verified signer identity, qualified certificates, or a qualified trust service.
What can I download afterward?
Download the signed PDF and a completion record with details of the signing activity.
How many requests are included?
Monthly request allowances vary by plan. See current FileDrop pricing.
