How it works

1

Photograph or scan your signature

Sign your name on white paper. Photograph it with your phone, or scan it. Make sure the signature is the only thing in the frame.

2

Upload and convert

Drop the photo here. Our AI extracts your handwriting and converts it into a clean vector path.

3

Download the SVG

Get an editable SVG, DXF, or PDF. Use it for engraving, branding, signing PDFs, or anywhere you need a scalable signature.

Why use PhotoCAD

Smooth, natural strokes

The output preserves the character of your handwriting. We do not over-smooth — the signature looks like you wrote it.

Scalable to any size

The SVG scales from a business card to a building sign without losing definition. Same file, infinite resolution.

Ready for engraving

The DXF output loads straight into LightBurn, Glowforge, xTool, and every engraving machine. No cleanup needed.

Works from a phone photo

No scanner required. A phone photo on a desk under a lamp is more than enough — we correct for lighting and paper texture.

A handwritten signature usually only exists on paper. PhotoCAD converts a phone photo of your signature into a clean SVG in under two minutes. The output preserves stroke pressure, curvature, and the small irregularities of natural handwriting.

The SVG is the parent format for any downstream use. From SVG, you can save out DXF for engraving, PDF for documents, or PNG for the web — all stay sharp at any size because the source is vector. The signature is fully editable: open the SVG in any vector editor to adjust stroke thickness, scale, or color.

For best results, sign on a plain white sheet with a dark pen, photograph the page squarely under good light, and crop to the signature before uploading.

What you can do with it

Digital document signing

Drop a transparent SVG of your signature into PDF, Word, or Pages. Sign documents digitally without printing and rescanning.

Personalized engraving

Engrave your signature on knives, watches, jewelry, leather goods, or pens. The SVG works in every laser engraver and CNC machine.

Branding and merchandise

Designers and creators use their signature as a logo. The vector version scales cleanly across business cards, websites, products, and packaging.

Art prints and editions

Artists need their signature in vector form for high-quality print editions, plotter art, and digital reproduction.
