SARVARC Sign: Send Any PDF for Signature, Without Printing a Single Page

You finish a quotation. The client says yes. Then the old routine begins: print it, sign it, scan it, email it, wait, and chase. Or the other way around. You email the PDF, the client prints it, signs it, takes a phone photo at a bad angle, and sends back something half cropped.

SARVARC Sign removes that loop. You upload the document you already have, mark where people need to sign, and send one link. The signer opens it on a phone or laptop, fills in the fields, signs, and you get a finished signed PDF back.

This post explains what it does, how it works step by step, and where it fits in real work. You can read more about our mission on our About Us page.

What Is SARVARC Sign?

SARVARC Sign is the online document signing feature inside SARVARC Workspace. You upload a PDF or an image of a document, drag fields onto it (name, phone, email, date, text, signature, checkbox), and publish it as a link. Anyone with the link can complete and sign the document in their browser. You then download each signed copy as a PDF.

You find it in Make Forms, under the Send for Signing button, next to Canvas Form. Your documents are listed under Sign Documents, so you can reopen, update, or pause them later.

It is built for the everyday paperwork most businesses actually have: quotations, agreements, consent forms, delivery receipts, and approval pages. It is not a separate tool to learn. It sits next to the forms, PDF editor, and reports you already use in the Workspace.

The Place tab: drag a field onto your own quotation, then move or resize it.

How Does Online Document Signing Work in SARVARC?

It takes five steps. None needs a technical background.

1. Upload your document. Choose a PDF, PNG, JPG, or WebP file up to 3 MB. If your PDF is larger, compress it first.
2. Place your fields. Drag a field onto the page, or tap a field and then tap where you want it. Rename each one, resize it, and mark it as required.
3. Try it yourself. A private test mode lets you fill in the fields and sign, then download your own copy. Nothing is sent to anyone, so you can check the layout before the real signer ever sees it.
4. Brand it and publish. Add your logo, business name, accent color, and social links. Choose how long the link stays live, then publish. The link is copied for you.
5. Collect signed copies. Each signer's copy appears in your list, and you can download it as a PDF.

Which Fields Can You Place on a Document?

There are seven field types, chosen to cover what most paperwork asks for:

• Full name
• Phone
• Email
• Date, with a proper date picker so signers do not mistype it
• Text, for anything else, such as an address or an order number
• Signature
• Checkbox, for "I agree to the terms" or "I have received the goods"

Each field has a label the signer can see, and you can mark any of them as required. A signer cannot send the document until every required field is complete. If you publish a document with no signature field, SARVARC asks you to confirm first, because that is usually a mistake.

Click any field to rename it, change its type, or make it required.

How Can Someone Sign? Draw, Type, or Upload

People sign in different ways, and a good signing page should allow all of them. SARVARC offers three:

• Draw with a finger, stylus, or mouse. This feels closest to signing on paper.
• Type your name and pick from several handwriting-style fonts. This is the quickest option on a laptop.
• Upload an image of an existing signature, or a PDF that carries one.

Signers do not need to create an account or install anything. They open the link, fill in the fields, and submit. When they finish, they can also download their own copy as a PDF.

What Does Your Branding Look Like to the Signer?

A plain, unbranded link can look suspicious, especially to a client who has never worked with you. So the signing page can carry your identity: your logo, your business name, your accent color, and your social links.

When the client opens the link, they see who sent the document before they see anything else. That small detail builds trust and cuts down on the "Is this message real?" phone calls. If you already set up branding for SARVARC Forms, the idea is the same: your documents should look like your business, not like a generic tool.

Set your logo, business name, accent color, and social links once, on the Send tab.

This is what the signer sees when they open your link: your name and logo at the top, a clear instruction, a count of required fields done, and highlighted boxes that guide them through the document.

The signer view: branded header, progress count, and a highlighted signature box.

How Do You Control a Signing Link?

You stay in control of the link from start to finish:

• Expiry. Keep the link live for 1, 3, 7, 14, or 30 days, or until you take it offline. After that, the link stops working.
• Pause and resume. Need to fix a price before anyone signs? Pause the link, then resume it when you are ready.
• Update link. Changed a field or the branding? Press Update link and the live version changes. SARVARC also tells you when your latest edits are not on the link yet.
• Take offline. Remove the link and delete the online copy of the document in one click.
• Signed copies list. See who signed and when, and download each signed PDF. New signatures appear automatically, and you can refresh the list at any time.

Where Is My Document Stored? A Plain-Language Privacy Note

Privacy matters most with signed paperwork, so here is how SARVARC handles it:

• Your document list, field positions, files, and signed copies are saved on your own device (and in Saved Sessions, if you use them).
• A copy of the document exists online only while the link is live. When you take it offline, delete it, or the expiry passes, the online copy is removed.
• The signing page can only open a link that is live, not paused, and not expired.
• The signed PDF is built in the browser, with the filled fields placed into the page.

Each document accepts up to 300 signed submissions, which is plenty for a quotation, a class consent form, or a team policy.

One honest note: rules on what counts as a legally binding e-signature differ by country and by document type. For high-stakes contracts, check the requirements that apply to you.

For everyday approvals, quotations, and acknowledgements, a clear, signed PDF is what most people need.

Use Cases: Where Can You Use Document Signing?

This is where a feature like this earns its place. Here are practical ways to use it.

1. Quotations and estimates

Send the quote as a PDF with a signature, date, and checkbox. The client signs to accept, and you have written approval in one file. This is the most natural fit for service businesses, contractors, and installers.

2. Service agreements and work orders

Freelancers, agencies, and consultants can get a scope of work signed before starting. Add a text field for the project name and a checkbox for "I have read the terms."

3. Delivery and receipt confirmation

Place a name, date, and signature field on a delivery note. The recipient signs on their phone as soon as the goods arrive, so you never lose a paper slip.

4. Consent and permission forms

Schools, clubs, studios, and event organizers can collect parent or participant consent. One link goes to everyone, and every signed copy comes back as its own PDF.

5. Photo, video, and content release forms

Photographers and video teams can get a release signed before publishing. Add a checkbox for usage rights and a signature for the person appearing.

6. Employee and contractor onboarding

Send a policy acknowledgement, a code of conduct, or a confidentiality note. Each person signs once, and you keep a copy per person.

7. Internal approvals

A manager signs off on a budget, a leave request, or a purchase order. Use the date field so the approval carries its own date.

8. Rentals and equipment handover

Hand over a camera, a laptop, a vehicle, or a hall booking with a signed condition note. The checkbox confirms "received in good condition."

9. Pharmacy, clinic, and shop paperwork

Delivery acknowledgements, home-service consent, and customer declarations are quick to sign on a phone. Share the link by message and collect the signed copy the same day.

10. Students and classes

Teachers and trainers can collect signed declarations, attendance sheets, or project submission acknowledgements from a whole class using one link.

How Does SARVARC Sign Connect to the Rest of SARVARC Workspace?

This is the part standalone signing tools usually miss. A signature is rarely the end of the work.

• Build the document first. Create your quotation or report in the Workspace, then send it for signing. The One Click, Zero Formatting report tools help you produce a client-ready PDF in the first place.
• Collect details with forms. If you need structured answers, not just a signature, SARVARC Forms is the better fit. SARVARC Sign sits right beside it in Make Forms.
• Export in the format you need. Once a document is final, see how SARVARC exports your work as PDF, Excel, Word, or video.
• Work from your phone. Placing fields is easiest on a laptop, but signing works well on a phone. Our guide to mobile for speed, desktop for precision explains the split.
• Get help from Kadessa. Meet Kadessa, the assistant built into the Workspace, for help with the surrounding work.

The point is simple: one workspace, one flow. Build the document, send it, sign it, and keep it. For a broader look at why this consolidated approach works, see Why Choose SARVARC Workspace.

The Bottom Line

Signing a document should take a minute, not a day. The slow parts are almost never the signature itself. They are the printing, scanning, emailing, and chasing around it.

SARVARC Sign cuts those out. Upload, place fields, brand it, send one link, and collect signed PDFs. It lives inside the same Workspace where you already build your reports, forms, and presentations, so the paperwork flows from one step to the next. If you are still printing quotations to get them signed, try it on your next one.
