Search for encrypted text in QR-code signatures

GroupDocs.Signature provides ability to search over secure QR-code signature (QrCodeSignature) with standard or custom encryption. Standard encryption is implemented over class SymmetricEncryption class. Creation of this object expects 3 arguments like encryption algorithm enumeration SymmetricAlgorithmType with one of following values (DES, TripleDES, RC2, Rijndael), string value key and string value salt.

Here are the steps to search for secure QR-code text with standard encryption with GroupDocs.Signature:

This example shows how to search for secure QR-code signature text.

Signature signature = new Signature("QRCodeEncryptedText.pdf");
// setup key and passphrase
String key = "1234567890";
String salt = "1234567890";
// create data encryption
IDataEncryption encryption = new SymmetricEncryption(SymmetricAlgorithmType.Rijndael, key, salt);
 
QrCodeSearchOptions options = new QrCodeSearchOptions();
// specify special pages to search on
options.setAllPages(true);
options.setPageNumber(1);
PagesSetup pagesSetup = new PagesSetup();
pagesSetup.setFirstPage(false);
pagesSetup.setLastPage(true);
pagesSetup.setOddPages(false);
pagesSetup.setEvenPages(true);
options.setPagesSetup(pagesSetup);
// specify types of QR code to verify
options.setEncodeType(QrCodeTypes.QR);
options.setDataEncryption(encryption);
 
 
// search for signatures in document
List<QrCodeSignature> signatures = signature.search(QrCodeSignature.class,options);
System.out.print("\nSource document contains following signatures:");
for (QrCodeSignature qrCodeSignature : signatures)
{
    System.out.print("QRCode signature found at page "+qrCodeSignature.getPageNumber()+" with type "+qrCodeSignature.getEncodeType().getTypeName()+" and text "+ qrCodeSignature.getText());
}
