Ramón San Félix Ramón created the code: PDF Digital Signature in PowerBuilder

I have created a NetCore library called NetPdfService, which uses the iTextSharp library to digitally sign PDF files.

In short, the only thing that interests us are the two of_sign methods of the nvo_pdfservice class that allow us to digitally sign the pdf. The difference between both methods is that one uses an image to sign visually and the other does not.

The visual signature could be previously captured with a digital tablet, but I have not developed that in this example.

So that the example can be tested, I have added a test digital certificate called firma.pfx.

Attached PowerBuilder project and SnapDevelop projects of the C# libraries.

Hi David,

In the Open event of the application object, you have the development path. I imagine you ran the program from the IDE, and the path is set to my development environment at the time:

ls_path="C:\project pw2021\Blog\pdfsignV\pdfsign.exe"

The condition above must also be consistent with the version of the IDE:

if right(UPPER(ls_path), 9)="PB210.EXE" then ---> This is for pb2021

I leave here attached the same example migrated to pb2022 3356 since to see it I had to increase the version.

By the way, I'll put the development path in the ini file so that it's more intuitive to change it:

ls_path = trim(ProfileString(".\pdfsign.ini", "INICIO", "DevelopmentPath", "C:\projecto pw2021\Blog\pdfsignV"))

And I'll update the condition mentioned before to pb2022:

if right(UPPER(ls_path), 7)="220.EXE" or right(UPPER(ls_path), 7)="X64.EXE" then

Regards... Ramón
