    Sign document with Stamp signature - advanced

    GroupDocs.Signature provides StampSIgnOptions class with additional properties to specify different options for Stamp Signature. This signature type implements stamps with different implementation, forms, lines etc. Each Stamp option contains inner and outer lines. Inner lines represent vertical lines inside the stamp, when outer lines represent circles (or rectangles based on stamp type) around stamp with own text, border settings, background etc

    Here are the steps to add Stamp signature into document with GroupDocs.Signature:

    • Create new instance of Signature class and pass source document path as a constructor parameter.
    • Instantiate the StampSIgnOptions object according to your requirements and specify Text Signature options.
    • Call Sign method of Signature class instance and pass StampSIgnOptions to it.
    • Analyze SignResult result to check newly created signatures if needed.

    This example shows how to add Stamp signature to document. See SignResult
