eSign document with Stamp signature Leave feedback

A stamp signature is a special type of electronic signature that has the visual appearance of a round seal and its visual parameters can be set programmatically. Every stamp signature can have multiple “stamp lines” with custom text and different line thicknesses, colors, font weights and sizes. Here is an example of how a stamp signature created with GroupDocs.Siganture may look like:

GroupDocs.Signature provides the StampSignOptions class to specify different options for Stamp signature:

• Stamp type - Round or Square;
• Height and width in pixels;
• Alignment and position within the document page;
• and many more.

Each Stamp option contains inner and outer lines. Inner lines represent vertical lines inside the stamp, while outer lines represent circles (or rectangles based on stamp type) around the stamp with their own text, border settings, background etc.

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

• Create a new instance of the Signature class and pass the source document path as a constructor parameter.
• Instantiate the StampSignOptions object according to your requirements and specify appropriate options.
• Call the Sign method of the Signature class instance and pass the StampSignOptions to it.

This example shows how to add a Stamp signature to a document.

using (Signature signature = new Signature("sample.docx"))
{
    StampSignOptions options = new StampSignOptions()
    {
        // set stamp signature position
        Left = 100,
        Top = 100,
    };
    // setup first external line of Stamp
    StampLine outerLine = new StampLine();
    outerLine.Text = " * European Union * European Union  * European Union  *";
    outerLine.Font.FontSize = 12;
    outerLine.Height = 22;
    outerLine.TextBottomIntent = 6;
    outerLine.TextColor = Color.WhiteSmoke;
    outerLine.BackgroundColor = Color.DarkSlateBlue;
    options.OuterLines.Add(outerLine);
    //Inner square lines - horizontal lines inside the rings
    StampLine innerLine = new StampLine();
    innerLine.Text = "John";
    innerLine.TextColor = Color.MediumVioletRed;
    innerLine.Font.FontSize = 20;
    innerLine.Font.Bold = true;
    innerLine.Height = 40;
    options.InnerLines.Add(innerLine);

    signature.Sign("SampleSigned.docx", options);
}

This guide explains how to apply stamp-based signatures to documents using GroupDocs.Signature . It covers the process of creating a stamp signature, customizing its appearance, and positioning it on the document. The signed document can then be saved with the stamp signature applied.
