Artifacts is NULL after Splitting PDF Files and Adding Watermark using C#

[pasqui]

I split a Pdf in more documents then I add a watermark on every one.
If the file is signed, in the pages where I want to add the watermark the Artifacts property is null and I get the error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
Obviously, Artifacts is null
pdfDocNew.Pages[1].Artifacts.Add(artifact);

But if I do the same operation with a not signed Pdf every thing works fine.

Any suggestion on how to split a signed pdf in more document and add Watermark on every one?
