My objective is to digitally sign a generated document.
I came across the operation op.document.addDigitalSignature in the documentation and intend to use the IOperation interface’s Do() method to pass the file, the certificate data and any needed data. Could you please confirm if this is the recommended approach for programmatically adding a digital signature?
Additionally, I’d like to display some information within the signed PDF, such as signature metadata, using an annotation or stamp. Is there a recommended way to programmatically add such visual elements to the document through the SDK? If it is possible, how to position this element in the document?
I’ve searched through the SDK documentation and forums but haven’t found a working example, so any clarification or reference would be highly helpful.
Thank you very much for your assistance.
