If you mean the image of an actual signature rather than some sort of digital 
signing
algorithm, then imagemagick might do what you want.  You can overlay an image 
onto another
image (i.e. the page), then use the convert command to create the pdf.

Frank,

Thanks for you suggestion!

I have never really used ImageMagick, but I took a look at it after your note.  
It has some
merit.  

I also experimented a little with pdftk, and was able to develop a way to 
overlay a
signature as a watermark with it.  The only drawback so far is that pdftk seems 
to require
a merge of a whole page, and the only way to place the signature at the proper 
place is to
place it on a blank pdf page and then create the watermark.  Seems to be a bit 
of kludge to
me, but I think this will work for what I need to do.

[CentOS] merging signatures to a pdf file

2018-11-11 Thread Gregory P. Ennis
Everyone,

I am working on a module with the use of pdktk that merges *.fdf data files 
with a *.pdf
file for a filled out pdf form.  I have the need to add a signature to the pdf 
form.  Do
any of you know of a way to make this  happen?

Thanks much!!!
