Signature on a transparent PNG
Turn a photo of ink on white paper into a cropped PNG with the paper removed.

Details
Photograph ink on white paper, then use this to crop the signature and drop the paper. The result is a PNG you can stamp onto another page. The paper needs to be close to one color. Lines, creases, and shadows stay behind as specks. This does not create a legal certificate.

Limits
The paper must be close to one flat color. Lined paper and shadows will leave specks. Raise tolerance carefully.

Steps
1. Photograph the signature on a plain background.
2. Sample the paper color.
3. Download the trimmed PNG.

Questions
Is this a legal signature?

Why is the file still large?
Use the compressor afterward if a portal has a size cap.
