The Wacom STU-530 captures handwritten electronic signatures together with their biometric characteristics. The application software of the Signature Set is sign pro PDF. The software allows electronic registration of handwritten signatures and their integration into PDF documents. The software not only records the signature image that is displayed on the tablet or screen, but also the non-visible biometric data such as pressure, travel and speed. Subsequently, the document and the signature can not be modified and are protected securely. Then, the document can be saved, printed or sent.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Wacom STU-530?
A 5-inch colour signature pad running at 800 x 480 with support for 16.7 million colours, 1024 pressure levels and a 10.8 x 6.48 cm active signing area. It captures handwritten electronic signatures with the biometric detail needed for verification.
STU-530 or STU-540 — what is the difference?
They share the 5-inch colour format and 1024 pressure levels. The STU-540 is the current model and adds native Citrix v7.6.3+ support for virtual desktop deployments. For a new rollout we would normally quote the STU-540 unless you are matching existing STU-530 estate.
How large is the signing area?
10.8 x 6.48 cm, on a 5-inch colour panel at 800 x 480 native resolution. That is comfortably enough for long signatures alongside soft buttons or displayed terms.
How is the STU-530 connected and powered?
A single wired USB Type-A connection carries both data and power, so there is no separate power supply to place. The unit weighs 289 g and the backlight is rated at around 20,000 hours of service.
Does the pen need charging?
No. The cordless pen is battery-free, using Wacom electromagnetic resonance technology at 2540 lpi resolution. There is no charging routine for staff to manage across a large deployment.
Are signatures captured on the STU-530 legally valid in the UAE?
Yes. Electronic signatures are recognised under the UAE Electronic Transactions and Trust Services Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 46 of 2021). The pad supports compliance by capturing the biometric characteristics of the signature — the evidence used to verify a signer if a signature is ever challenged.
Can we integrate the STU-530 into our own application?
The Wacom Ink SDK for signature, previously published as the STU SDK. It returns the signature with its biometric data to your application rather than a flat image, and Wacom publishes documentation and sample code on GitHub so your team can evaluate the integration first. If you would rather not build anything, sign pro PDF does the job with no development.
How much does the Wacom STU-530 cost in the UAE?
Pricing depends on quantity, whether you need a sign pro PDF licence bundled, and any integration work. Request a quote and we will price hardware, software and development as one figure, with UAE delivery and local support included.
