[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-1261) Support for visual signature without a pdf template

Support for visual signature without a pdf template
---------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-1261
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1261
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: PDModel
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Matthias Küng


It would be very nice to set an image (of a hand written signature) along with the position and dimension of the visible signature field to the SignatureOptions which are interpreted in PDDocument.addSignature().
The current solution with passing a pdf as InputStream that serves as a template for the appearance settings is very inconvenient.

[jira] [Commented] (PDFBOX-1261) Support for visual signature without a pdf template

-----------------------------------------

Hi Matthias,
sry for the late response, I saw this issue while searching for the signature implementation issue :-)

There is no setter, because I couldn't find a easy way creating tables where I could set some image on the one side and some text on the other. So I choose the template based solution (via iText) as workaround, which make it really easy creating such tables.

Maybe some day someone can provide a table generator for this purpose. I also would prefer a solution without templates.

Best regards
Thomas
