What the widget measures

The panel counts what leaves your browser after you choose a file. The site's own scripts and fonts load like any web page — what you will never see is a request carrying your PDF. Check it here, or open your browser's Network tab and see for yourself.

The number is scoped to request bodies after you choose a document. App assets such as JavaScript, WASM, and fonts can still load; those are not your PDF bytes.

Verify it yourself
  1. Open DevTools, then the Network tab.
  2. Choose a PDF in the tool and complete the action.
  3. Filter for fetch or XHR requests; document processing should not create a request carrying your file.

Stronger check: load the tool page first, then disconnect from the network before choosing the file. Already-loaded tool code can continue processing locally, but a first visit still needs the site assets.

Steps

How to do it in Lemmafour

  1. Choose Fill and sign locally.
  2. Open the contract PDF.

  4. Switch to Sign mode, create or choose a signature asset, and place it on the signature line.
  5. Apply signatures, then Export and review the final PDF.

Expert note

Visual signature caveat

Lemmafour adds a visual electronic signature to the page. It is not a certificate-based digital signature, audit-trail workflow, identity proofing service, or legal advice. If a contract requires a specific signing method, follow that requirement instead of relying on a visual mark alone.

FAQ

Questions people ask before using this tool

Can I type and sign in one workflow?

Yes. Fill fields first, then switch to Sign mode before export.

Does this create a cryptographic digital signature?

No. It creates visible PDF content, not a certificate signature.

Can I use this on a phone?

The editor is responsive, but you should still review the exported contract before sending.
