Hhmmm, to me it sounds like a construct that somewhere requires some kind of state --- which might be serlialized as the intermediate document from that other mail and identified via the filename, a state nonetheless.

But now I have a Flash client which has to call initializeSignature from me, signDocument from other party and finally finalizeSignature from me again. As Flash doesn't maintain the invoked Java classes' state, I can't save anything from one call to the other... The methods should be completly independent. 2009/3/2 <[email protected]> Hi, I haven't checked your code in detail but... could you not simply store the stamper, signature appearance, and any other object of interest in member variables of the object that offers those methods?

I want my application to sign a PDF document in three moments: • (1) byte[] hash = initializeSignature(String pdf, Certificate cert, KeyStore chain, CRL crl) / to return the signable bytes • (2) byte[] rawSignature = signExternal(hash) / to sign the hash • (3) byte[] signedPDF = finalizeSignature(byte[] signature, byte[] hash) / to return the complete signed PDF -- Psssst!
