' This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Pdf")
set pdf = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Pdf")
' Load a PDF containing an unsigned signature field.
success = pdf.LoadFile("qa_data/pdf/unsigned_sig_field/due_diligence.pdf")
If (success = 0) Then
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( pdf.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"
Response.End
End If
' A PDF with an unsigned signature field appears in Adobe Acrobat as shown below.
' (When the mouse pointer is hovered over the field, a tooltip will likely show a message
' such as "Unsigned signature field (Click to sign)".
' This example code will automatically find the unsigned signature field,
' and signs using your certificate. It automatically sizes the text to the space alotted
' for the signature.
' Options for signing are specified in JSON.
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject")
set json = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.JsonObject")
' In most cases, the signingCertificateV2 and signingTime attributes are required.
success = json.UpdateInt("signingCertificateV2",1)
success = json.UpdateInt("signingTime",1)
' We don't specify the page or a specific location because Chilkat will automatically
' find the unsigned signature field and use its location and size and will scale the
' signatures visual appearance (text + graphics) to the correct size required to fit.
' We only need to indicate the desire to fill the unsigned signature field.
success = json.UpdateBool("appearance.fillUnsignedSignatureField",1)
' Starting in Chilkat v9.5.0.90, if a PDF contains multiple unsigned signature fields,
' the field to be signed can be chosen by name:
' To list unsigned signature fields, see this example: List PDF Unsigned Signature Fields
success = json.UpdateString("unsignedSignatureField","doctor_signature")
' Note: If the PDF document contains multiple unsigned signature fields, Chilkat will
' sign the 1st one found.
' In this example, the appearance of the digital signature will contain three lines:
' 1) The signing certificate's common name
' 2) The current date/time
' 3) Some arbitrary text.
' The keyword "cert_cn" is replaced with the Certificate's Subject Common Name.
' The keyword "current_dt" is replaced with the current date/time.
' Any number of appearance text lines can be added.
success = json.UpdateString("appearance.text[0]","Digitally signed by: cert_cn")
success = json.UpdateString("appearance.text[1]","current_dt")
success = json.UpdateString("appearance.text[2]","The crazy brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.")
' This signature will include one of the built-in SVG graphics (green-check-grey-circle).
success = json.UpdateString("appearance.image","green-check-grey-circle")
success = json.UpdateString("appearance.imagePlacement","left")
' Load the signing certificate. (Use your own certificate.)
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Cert")
set cert = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Cert")
success = cert.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/pfx/myPdfSigningCert.pfx","secret")
If (success = 0) Then
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( cert.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"
Response.End
End If
' Tell the pdf object to use the certificate for signing.
success = pdf.SetSigningCert(cert)
If (success = 0) Then
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( pdf.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"
Response.End
End If

End If
