Insert signature field in pdf file

Aspose.PDF Product Family
#1

Hello,
I’m evaluating Aspose.Pdf for .NET and Aspose.Words for .NET, to convert a doc file in a pdf file;

I need to add a signature field to the file generated and another application will sign the file.

I read some posts about this: http://www.aspose.com/community/forums/thread/876/add-a-signature-field.aspx ; http://www.aspose.com/community/forums/thread/41583/insert-signature-field.aspx
;
in these posts it’s written that this feature isn’t supported, are there some news about this?

Thanks
Mario

Thanks for your reply,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I would like to put a kind of field as described in Adobe article http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/acrobat/articles/acr8at_signpdf.html, but I think this is a proprietary solution of Adobe;

So, I would like to put a form field (not an image field) , the other application then find this form field and apply to it a digital sign.

Thanks

Hello Mario,

Thanks for considering Aspose

Adding form field to a Pdf document is possible using Aspose.Pdf.Kit. Like an HTML page, a PDF document may contain an interactive form (sometimes referred to as an AcroForm) made up of various form fields such as Text Boxes, Check Boxes, Radio Buttons, Drop-Down Lists and Push Buttons etc., for gathering information from the user. So, such an interactive form in a PDF document is called PDF Form.

Hi Mario,

The signature field is still not supported and we can't support it in short time. Sorry for the inconvenience.
