Analyze SignResult result to check newly created signatures if needed.
This example shows how to add Text signature to document with advanced setup and analyzing result of method. See SignResult
Signaturesignature=newSignature("sample.pdf");TextSignOptionsoptions=newTextSignOptions("John Smith");// set signature position
options.setLeft(100);options.setTop(100);// set signature rectangle
options.setWidth(100);options.setHeight(30);// set signature alignment
// when VerticalAlignment is set the Top coordinate will be ignored.
// Use Margin properties Top, Bottom to provide vertical offset
options.setVerticalAlignment(VerticalAlignment.Top);// when HorizontalAlignment is set the Left coordinate will be ignored.
// Use Margin properties Left, Right to provide horizontal offset
options.setHorizontalAlignment(HorizontalAlignment.Right);Paddingpadding=newPadding();padding.setBottom(20);padding.setRight(20);options.setMargin(padding);// adjust signature appearance
// setup signature border
Borderborder=newBorder();border.setColor(Color.GREEN);border.setDashStyle(DashStyle.DashLongDashDot);border.setTransparency(0.5);border.setVisible(true);border.setWeight(2);options.setBorder(border);// set text color and Font
options.setForeColor(Color.RED);SignatureFontsignatureFont=newSignatureFont();signatureFont.setSize(12);signatureFont.setFamilyName("Comic Sans MS");options.setFont(signatureFont);// setup background
Backgroundbackground=newBackground();background.setColor(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);background.setTransparency(0.5);background.setBrush(newLinearGradientBrush(Color.GREEN,Color.DARK_GRAY,0));options.setBackground(background);// set rotation
options.setRotationAngle(45);// set alternative signature implementation on document page
options.setSignatureImplementation(TextSignatureImplementation.Image);// set up shadow options for text
TextShadowshadow=newTextShadow();shadow.setColor(Color.ORANGE);shadow.setAngle(135);shadow.setBlur(5);shadow.setDistance(4);shadow.setTransparency(0.2);//add text shadow to signature extensions
options.getExtensions().add(shadow);// sign document to file
SignResultsignResult=signature.sign("signed.pdf",options);// analyzing result
System.out.print("List of newly created signatures:");intnumber=1;for(BaseSignaturetemp:signResult.getSucceeded()){System.out.print("Signature #"+number+++": Type: "+temp.getSignatureType()+" Id:"+temp.getSignatureId()+",Location: "+temp.getLeft()+"x"+temp.getTop()+".
