Invalid according to which signature validation?

If according to Adobe Reader/Acrobat: That is by design! Adobe software
accepts only a very limited set of changes to a signed PDF (actually the set
depends on the kind of signature applied, but even the type allowing the
most changes is very restrictive.)

If according to iText verification: Please supply sample documents and code
to reproduce this.

Regards,   Michael

PS: You can find a description of the allowed changes in the Adobe white
paper "Adobe Acrobat 9 Digital Signatures, Changes and Improvements" and
updates of it.
