Hi,

I am creating a new project:
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/felipegaucho/archive/2007/06/introducing_the.html

it is already running some features, but the PDF details about digital
signature and iText seems a bit odd for me.

in my basic use-case, the code:

1 - read a PDF tamplate

2 - fill form fields:
     2.1 - connect to a JDBC data source
     2.2 - read a mapping properties (mapping between the PDF fields
and Column names)
     2.3 - fill the fields using the values read from database and the
mapping properties

3 - sign the pdf

4 - save the new PDF (with filled fields and signed)

---------------------------

If I try to do that using that sample from the iText documentation,
the generated PDF is never recognized as authentic signed PDF by Adobe
because it say the content was changed since the pdf generation...

If I do that in two steps: first generating and saving a modified PDF,
and then re-open this pdf, sign and save, everything works fine and
Adobe don't disclaim anymore..

Why can't I do that in just 1 step ?


best regards,

    Felipe Gaucho
