Get PDF Signer Certs

See more PDF Signatures Examples

This example demonstrates how to validate the signatures in a PDF and also shows how to get Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

pdf = Chilkat::CkPdf.new()

# Load a PDF that has cryptographic signatures to be validated
success = pdf.LoadFile("qa_data/pdf/sign_testing_1/helloSigned2.pdf")
if (success == false)
    print pdf.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# Each time we verify a signature, information about the signature is written into
# sigInfo (replacing whatever sigInfo previously contained).
sigInfo = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()

# Iterate over each signature and validate each.
numSignatures = pdf.get_NumSignatures()
validated = false
cert = Chilkat::CkCert.new()
i = 0
while i < numSignatures
    validated = pdf.VerifySignature(i,sigInfo)
    print "Signature " + i.to_s() + " validated: " + validated.to_s() + "\n";

    # After calling VerifySignature, you can get the signer certificate by calling
    # GetSignerCert with the same index. 
    success = pdf.GetSignerCert(i,cert)
    if (success != false)
        print "PDF signer certificate: " + cert.subjectDN() + "\n";
    end

    i = i + 1
end

print "Finished." + "\n";
