Helpful settings
Larger text
Phones and tablets have a text size setting under Display or Accessibility.
Zoom
Both iPhone and Android have a zoom feature for the whole screen.
Read aloud
Most devices can read the screen aloud — handy for long documents.
Zooming in while signing
When you sign a PDF here, you can zoom in on the page to check the small print, then place your signature exactly on the line. Text and buttons on this site are larger than usual, so every step is easy to see.
Printing a large-print copy to read
If you prefer reading on paper, print the PDF at a larger scale or ask the sender for a large-print version. You can still sign the digital copy afterwards, without printing it again.
Ask for help
A family member or friend can show you these settings once — after that it's easy. You can also ask the sender to explain anything in the document before you sign.
