Class DigitalSignatureUtil

  • java.lang.Object
    • com.aspose.words.DigitalSignatureUtil
public abstract class DigitalSignatureUtil 
extends java.lang.Object

Provides methods for signing document.

Since digital signature works with file content rather than Document Object Model these methods are put into a separate class.

Supported formats are LoadFormat.DOC and LoadFormat.DOCX.

Example:

Shows how to load signatures from a digitally signed document.
// There are two ways of loading a signed document's collection of digital signatures using the DigitalSignatureUtil class.
// 1 -  Load from a document from a local file system filename:
DigitalSignatureCollection digitalSignatures = 
    DigitalSignatureUtil.loadSignatures(getMyDir() + "Digitally signed.docx");

// If this collection is nonempty, then we can verify that the document is digitally signed.
Assert.assertEquals(1, digitalSignatures.getCount());

// 2 -  Load from a document from a FileStream:
InputStream stream = new FileInputStream(getMyDir() + "Digitally signed.docx");
try
{
    digitalSignatures = DigitalSignatureUtil.loadSignatures(stream);
    Assert.assertEquals(1, digitalSignatures.getCount());
}
finally { if (stream != null) stream.close(); }

Example:

Shows how to remove digital signatures from a digitally signed document.
// There are two ways of using the DigitalSignatureUtil class to remove digital signatures
// from a signed document by saving an unsigned copy of it somewhere else in the local file system.
// 1 - Determine the locations of both the signed document and the unsigned copy by filename strings:
DigitalSignatureUtil.removeAllSignatures(getMyDir() + "Digitally signed.docx",
    getArtifactsDir() + "DigitalSignatureUtil.LoadAndRemove.FromString.docx");

// 2 - Determine the locations of both the signed document and the unsigned copy by file streams:
InputStream streamIn = new FileInputStream(getMyDir() + "Digitally signed.docx");
try
{
    OutputStream streamOut = new FileOutputStream(getArtifactsDir() + "DigitalSignatureUtil.LoadAndRemove.FromStream.docx");
    try
    {
        DigitalSignatureUtil.removeAllSignatures(streamIn, streamOut);
    }
    finally { if (streamOut != null) streamOut.close(); }
}
finally { if (streamIn != null) streamIn.close(); }

// Verify that both our output documents have no digital signatures.
Assert.assertEquals(DigitalSignatureUtil.loadSignatures(getArtifactsDir() + "DigitalSignatureUtil.LoadAndRemove.FromString.docx").getCount(), 0);
Assert.assertEquals(DigitalSignatureUtil.loadSignatures(getArtifactsDir() + "DigitalSignatureUtil.LoadAndRemove.FromStream.docx").getCount(), 0);
