Hi… How do you remove or replace “Signature Reason”, “Contact”, “Location”?

I just want to use a single line “Signed By : John Smith”

public static void SignWithTimeStampServer()
{
    using (Document document = new Document(System.IO.Path.Combine(_dataDir,"SimpleResume.pdf")))
    {
        using (PdfFileSignature signature = new PdfFileSignature(document))
        {
            PKCS7 pkcs = new PKCS7(@"C:\Keys\test.pfx", "Start2020");
            TimestampSettings timestampSettings = new TimestampSettings("https://freetsa.org/tsr", string.Empty); // User/Password can be omitted
            pkcs.TimestampSettings = timestampSettings;
            System.Drawing.Rectangle rect = new System.Drawing.Rectangle(100, 100, 200, 100);
            // Create any of the three signature types
            signature.Sign(1, "Signature Reason", "Contact", "Location", true, rect, pkcs);
            // Save output PDF file
            signature.Save(System.IO.Path.Combine(_dataDir, "DigitallySignWithTimeStamp_out.pdf"));
        }
    }
}

I suggest you to try passing empty strings as parameters and then share your feedback.

signature.Sign(1, "", "", "", true, rect, pkcs);

thx… how do I remove the word ‘Contact’ when adding ? The same with ‘Location’ when adding a location.

We are afraid that can not be removed. If you are able to remove these using Adobe Acrobat then share a sample file as your desired output.
