What is a Stamp signature?
A stamp signature is a special type of electronic signature that have visual appearance of round seal and its visual parameters can be set programmatically. Every stamp signature can have multiple “stamp lines” with custom text and different line thickness, color, font weight and size.

GroupDocs.Signature provides 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, 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 appropriate options.
- Call Sign method of Signature class instance and pass StampSignOptions to it.
