(PowerBuilder) PDF Sign Unsigned Signature Field
Demonstrates how to sign a PDF's unsigned signature field.
Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.85 or greater.
integer li_rc
oleobject loo_Pdf
integer li_Success
oleobject loo_Json
oleobject loo_Cert
// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
loo_Pdf = create oleobject
// Use "Chilkat_9_5_0.Pdf" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0
li_rc = loo_Pdf.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Pdf")
if li_rc < 0 then
destroy loo_Pdf
MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
return
end if
// Load a PDF containing an unsigned signature field.
li_Success = loo_Pdf.LoadFile("qa_data/pdf/unsigned_sig_field/due_diligence.pdf")
if li_Success = 0 then
Write-Debug loo_Pdf.LastErrorText
destroy loo_Pdf
return
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.
loo_Json = create oleobject
// Use "Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0
li_rc = loo_Json.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.JsonObject")
// In most cases, the signingCertificateV2 and signingTime attributes are required.
loo_Json.UpdateInt("signingCertificateV2",1)
loo_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.
loo_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
loo_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.
loo_Json.UpdateString("appearance.text[0]","Digitally signed by: cert_cn")
loo_Json.UpdateString("appearance.text[1]","current_dt")
loo_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).
loo_Json.UpdateString("appearance.image","green-check-grey-circle")
loo_Json.UpdateString("appearance.imagePlacement","left")
// Load the signing certificate. (Use your own certificate.)
loo_Cert = create oleobject
// Use "Chilkat_9_5_0.Cert" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0
li_rc = loo_Cert.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Cert")
li_Success = loo_Cert.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/pfx/myPdfSigningCert.pfx","secret")
if li_Success = 0 then
Write-Debug loo_Cert.LastErrorText
destroy loo_Pdf
destroy loo_Json
destroy loo_Cert
return
end if
// Tell the pdf object to use the certificate for signing.
li_Success = loo_Pdf.SetSigningCert(loo_Cert)
if li_Success = 0 then
Write-Debug loo_Pdf.LastErrorText
destroy loo_Pdf
destroy loo_Json
destroy loo_Cert
