If you already have GroupDocs.Signature for .Net and want to upgrade it, please execute Update-Package GroupDocs.Signature to get the latest version.
Please check the GitHub Repository for other common usage scenarios.
Sign PDF with Digital Signature
The example below shows how to sign a PDF document with a digital e-signature using C# language. We can sign any other supported document format in the same way
using (Signature signature = new Signature("sample.pdf"))
{
// initialize digital option with certificate file path
DigitalSignOptions options = new DigitalSignOptions("certificate.pfx")
{
// set signature position
Left = 100,
Top = 100,
Password = "1234567890"
};
signature.Sign("signed.pdf", options);
}
Sign with QR Code Signature
The code snippet below demonstrates how to sign a PDF document with the QR code signature
using (Signature signature = new Signature("sample.pdf"))
{
// create QRCode option with predefined QRCode text
QrCodeSignOptions options = new QrCodeSignOptions("JohnSmith")
{
// setup QRCode encoding type
EncodeType = QrCodeTypes.QR,
// set signature position
Left = 100,
Top = 100
};
signature.Sign("signed.pdf", options);
}
Verify Digital Signatures
This example shows how to verify Digital signature in the document
using (Signature signature = new Signature("sample.pdf"))
{
DigitalVerifyOptions options = new DigitalVerifyOptions("certificate.pfx")
{
Comments = "Test comment"
};
// verify document signatures
VerificationResult result = signature.Verify(options);
if (result.IsValid)
{
Console.WriteLine("\nDocument was verified successfully!");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("\nDocument failed verification process.");
}
}
Search Signatures in XLSX
This example shows how to search for Digital signature in the document and analyze digital signature certificate
using (Signature signature = new Signature("spreadsheet.xlsx"))
{
// search for signatures in document
List<DigitalSignature> signatures = signature.Search<DigitalSignature>(SignatureType.Digital);
Console.WriteLine("\nSource document contains following signatures.");
foreach (var digitalSignature in signatures)
{
Console.WriteLine("Digital signature found from {0} with validation flag {1}. Certificate SN {2}",
digitalSignature.SignTime, digitalSignature.IsValid, digitalSignature.Certificate?.SerialNumber);
}
}
Remove Signature from Document
This example shows how to delete Digital signature that was found using Search method
using (Signature signature = new Signature("signed.pdf"))
{
List<DigitalSignature> signatures =
signature.Search<DigitalSignature>(SignatureType.Digital);
if (signatures.Count > 0)
{
DigitalSignature digitalSignature = signatures[0];
bool result = signature.Delete(digitalSignature);
if (result)
{
Console.WriteLine(
$"Digital signature #{digitalSignature.Thumbprint} from " +
$"{digitalSignature.SignTime.ToShortDateString()} was deleted."
);
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine(
$"Signature was not deleted from the document! " +
$"Signature# {digitalSignature.Thumbprint} was not found!"
);
}
}
}
Custom PDF Digital Signature
This example shows how to specify extra appearances
using (Signature signature = new Signature("sample.docx"))
{
DigitalSignOptions options = new DigitalSignOptions("certificate.pfx")
{
// certifiate password
Password = "1234567890",
// digital certificate details
Reason = "Sign",
Contact = "JohnSmith",
Location = "Office1",
// image as digital certificate appearance on document pages
ImageFilePath = imagePath,
//
AllPages = true,
Width = 80,
Height = 60,
VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Bottom,
HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right,
Margin = new Padding() { Bottom = 10, Right = 10 },
// Setup signature line appearance.
// This appearance will add Signature Line on the first page.
// Could be useful for .xlsx files.
Appearance = new DigitalSignatureAppearance("John Smith", "Title", "jonny@test.com")
};
signature.Sign("signed.docx", options);
}
