Because I create all my different pdf in Adobe Designer without changing settings :( So it's for that I don't understand the difference!!! ________________________________ De : [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] De la part de Paret, Thierry Envoyé : mardi 28 août 2007 14:02 À : Post all your questions about iText here Objet : Re: [iText-questions] Question about Itext library and pdf signature Bonjour Michael, Your different PDF files may have different security setting in which signing is not allowed.

I try to follow the code example that I saw on your website but I have a problem. This is my java code : try{ KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType()); ks.load(new FileInputStream("keystore.ks"), "pdfpassword".toCharArray()); PrivateKey key = (PrivateKey)ks.getKey("pdf", "pdfpassword".toCharArray()); Certificate[] chain = ks.getCertificateChain(alias); for (int i = 0; i < pdfFilenames.length; i++) { PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(pdfFilenames[i]); //on enleve l'extension du nom de fichier à traiter afin de modifier le nom String name = pdfFilenames[i].substring(0, pdfFilenames[i].lastIndexOf('.')); FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream(name+"_signed.pdf"); PdfStamper stp = PdfStamper.createSignature(reader, fout, '\0'); PdfSignatureAppearance sap = stp.getSignatureAppearance(); sap.setCrypto(key, chain, null, PdfSignatureAppearance.SELF_SIGNED); sap.setCertificationLevel(PdfSignatureAppearance.CERTIFIED_FORM_FILLING); //comment next line to have an invisible signature sap.setVisibleSignature(new Rectangle(100, 100, 200, 200), 1, null); stp.close(); } }catch(Exception e){ e.printStackTrace(); } There is no error during the execution. But I don't see a difference between the first pdf and the pdf signed each time. In fact, I make different tests. I use 5 different pdf as input file. At the output only two pdf contain a signature (although the signature is different in these two cases). So I don't understand why the signature doesn't work in every case. If you can help me, it will be great.
