Thank you very much for your answer.

I mean with P=1, 2, 3 the access permissions of the DocMDP transform parameters 
dictionary described in 32000-1: 2008:
P=1 No changes to the document shall be permitted; any change to the document 
shall invalidate the signature.
P=2 Permitted changes shall be filling in forms, instantiating page templates, 
and signing; other changes shall invalidate the signature.
P=3 Permitted changes shall be the same as for 2, as well as annotation 
creation, deletion, and modification; other changes shall invalidate the 
signature.

I've implemented the validation of "P=1" simply verifying the signature on the 
byterange and checking that the byterange covers the entire document. This was 
ok for me.
Now  i'd like to implement also some methods that allow me to verify documents 
with P=2 and P=3.
The problem, that 2 years ago seemed to be open, is to compare the revisions to 
find out if the changes between the certified revision and the next revisions 
are allowed.
I'm wondering if some recent improvements can help to solve the problem.

Thank you again.
Francesca
