About this certificate sign pdf tool
Your certificate and password stay in the browser. Adds a detached SHA-256 signature. Requires an unexpired RSA or EC certificate. No certificate issuance, trusted timestamp, revocation check or identity verification. Trust depends on your issuer and PDF viewer.
When to use this tool
Apply a SHA-256 certificate signature without uploading your key.
Get started in three steps
- Choose your PDF file from your device.
- Finish edits before signing. Subsequent changes can invalidate signatures.
- Select Sign on this device, review the result and download your file.
A practical example
Finish editing an approved document, then choose your own unexpired P12/PFX certificate and its password. Signing runs locally; PaperLumo does not create a certificate or decide whether its issuer is trusted.
Check the result
Open the output in a PDF reader that validates digital signatures. Check the signer certificate and validation status, and keep the original certificate and password private.
If the result is not right
An untrusted-issuer warning is different from a damaged signature. Check your certificate chain with its issuer. This tool supplies no trusted timestamp or revocation check; edits after signing may invalidate it.
Before you download
Does PaperLumo issue a trusted certificate?
No. Supply your RSA or EC certificate. Trust depends on the issuer. No trusted timestamp, revocation check or identity verification is provided.
Where is my document processed?
Document processing runs in your browser. This tool does not upload your document for processing. Optional analytics measures visits and tool events only after you allow it; it does not receive your document content or filenames. Read the privacy policy.
