Sign a lease PDF without printing (desktop)
Print, wet-ink, scan, lose the version. Sign the lease PDF on the Mac or Windows desktop, in the same client folder as Ejari and the cheques.
The office problem
The lease is already a PDF. Printing it to sign, then scanning it back, creates a second file — often in Downloads, often named Scan001 — while the draft stays in email. The signed copy is then hard to find next to Ejari and the cheques.
You do not need a new editor for this. You need to sign the file you already have, and leave it in the client folder.
Sign on the desktop, keep the same file
On Mac or Windows, open the lease from the client workspace in Ramsha Docs, place the signature, and save. The signed PDF is still that client’s file — not a portal download and not a printout on the desk.
This is desktop signing for office PDFs. It is not a cloud e-sign workflow for counterparties who live in a browser, and it is not a full PDF editor.
Sign the lease you are holding today
Use a real draft. One signature is enough to see if the habit sticks.
- 1Start free — no card — and open Ramsha Docs on the computer where the lease already lives.
- 2Open the client folder, then the tenancy PDF. Do not copy it to the Desktop first.
- 3Place the signature, save, and confirm the file is still in that same folder with the IDs and cheque copies.
- 4If Ejari is next, add that date on the same client so the reminder hits the phone.
When printing is still right
Some landlords still want wet ink. Print that one. Do not print the ones that only needed a signature on the PDF you already had.
If your day is “which version is signed?”, the printer is not the filing system. The client folder is.
Sign the lease in the same file
Start free — no card. Open the PDF on your computer, sign it, and keep it with the rest of the client pack.
