Make your initials
Leases, loan papers and long contracts ask for initials on every page or beside each change. Make a clean set here, typed in a script font or drawn by hand, and download it as a PNG with a transparent background.

Your initials never leave your device. They're made and saved right here in your browser, as a PNG with a transparent background.
How it works
- 1
Type or draw
Type your full name and the tool shortens it (Jane Doe becomes JD), or type the initials yourself. Or switch to Draw and write them with a finger, a stylus or a mouse.
- 2
Style them
Pick one of six script fonts, black or blue ink and a size, and add periods if that's how you write them.

Download the PNG
The background is transparent and the image is drawn at twice its size, so it sits cleanly on any page and prints sharp.
Names with particles keep them lowercase, so Ana de la Cruz becomes AdlC. If you prefer ADC, type the initials yourself.
Where initials go
- On each page of a long agreement, so nobody can swap a page after it's signed.
- Beside a handwritten change, to show both sides agreed to it.
- Next to key clauses in a lease or a waiver, like a pet policy or a release, to show the signer read them.
- On a lender's or title company's packet, wherever they flag a line for initials.
An image isn't the whole record
A PNG of your initials is handy for your own copies. On a contract, though, what counts is the record of who initialed, when, and whether the page changed afterward. In SignMaster, initials can go on every page, each signer adds theirs from a link, and the signed PDF ends with a certificate of completion.
Questions? Answers.
Are electronic initials legally binding?
Initials do the same job as a signature for the spot they're in: they show you saw and agreed. In the US, the ESIGN Act treats an electronic mark adopted with the intent to sign as a signature, though some documents have their own rules. This is general information, not legal advice.
Do you keep a copy of my initials?
No. They're made in your browser and saved straight to your device. Nothing you type or draw is uploaded.
Can I make a full signature too?
Yes. The signature maker works the same way for your full name, and it also downloads SVG files.
What size should I download?
The default suits most documents. An initials box on a form is usually about half an inch tall, and the PNG scales down cleanly to fit it.
