Maybe. I only have the first edition.

I am sure there is an example in the book on how to do this...

signatures in a digital signature field

So if the following is the code I'm using to add a digital signature field with 
iText 2.7.1:

PdfAcroForm acroForm = pdfWriter.getAcroForm();
PdfFormField signatureField = PdfFormField.createSignature(pdfWriter);
signatureField.setWidget(new Rectangle(llx, lly, urx, ury), 
PdfAnnotation.HIGHLIGHT_INVERT);
signatureField.setFieldName("Signature 1");
signatureField.setPage();
acroForm.addFormField(signatureField);

Specifically, how would I "Set the rotation on the DigSig field to the negative 
of the page's rotation to "unrotate" it".

I can't figure out how to get the current page or the current page's rotation, 
and I've found a few places that allow rotation to be set, but I'm not sure 
which is the appropriate one.

Set the rotation on the DigSig field to the negative of the page's rotation to 
"unrotate" it.

Subject: [iText-questions] Setting the default orientation of signatures in a 
digital signature field

I am generating a pdf with an unsigned digital signature field. When I sign the 
document with Adobe Acrobat, the digital signature is rotated 90 degrees 
clockwise from the desired orientation. I have a hunch that this might be due 
to the fact that the document I generate uses landscape orientation. 
Regardless, is there a way for iText to indicate the default orientation of the 
content within the field (specifically for a digital signature field)?
