Oscar,

please do not spawn multiple requests of same type.

In the other thread earlier today "stamp in datawindow" I explained how to get an electronic signature in PB, as you asked.

Now you are referring to "stamp in pfc", I guess it is a typo and you mean "in a PDF"?

I think you need first of all to get some knowledge of the terms you are using: digital signature is not electronic signature, which are not stamps.

A stamp is usually an hash of a given object, electronic signature is a graphical digital handwritten signature, digital signature is a mathematical form to guarantee authenticity of a document.

  • In order to implement electorinc signature in PB you just need to use an Ink Picture control (on a form, VO or datawindow).
  • Digital signature is way more complex, it is based on X509 certificates and you would need 1) 3rd party commercial tools to sign a document or 2) develop your own java/.net wrap to existing SDKs (bouncycastle being the leading project to this extent). 

HTH,

Marco

Hi Oscar;

  Exactly what kind of "stamp" are you referring to ... TimeStamp, Digital Signature, etc?

It would help the responders if you were more precise. The question as phrased is very subjective.

Regards ... Chris
