Class SignatureLine

  • java.lang.Object
    • com.aspose.words.SignatureLine
public class SignatureLine

Provides access to signature line properties.

Example:

Shows how to create a line for a signature and insert it into a document.
// Create a blank document and its DocumentBuilder
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// The SignatureLineOptions will contain all the data that the signature line will display

    options.setInstructions("Please sign here");
    options.setShowDate(true);
    options.setSigner("John Doe");
    options.setSignerTitle("Senior Manager");
}

// Insert the signature line, applying our SignatureLineOptions
// We can control where the signature line will appear on the page using a combination of left/top indents and margin-relative positions
// Since we're placing the signature line at the bottom right of the page, we will need to use negative indents to move it into view
Shape shape = builder.insertSignatureLine(options, RelativeHorizontalPosition.RIGHT_MARGIN, -170.0, RelativeVerticalPosition.BOTTOM_MARGIN, -60.0, WrapType.NONE);
Assert.assertTrue(shape.isSignatureLine());

// The SignatureLine object is a member of the shape that contains it
SignatureLine signatureLine = shape.getSignatureLine();

Assert.assertEquals(signatureLine.getSignerTitle(), "Senior Manager");
Assert.assertEquals(signatureLine.getInstructions(), "Please sign here");
Assert.assertTrue(signatureLine.getShowDate());

Assert.assertTrue(signatureLine.getAllowComments());
Assert.assertTrue(signatureLine.getDefaultInstructions());

// We will be prompted to sign it when we open the document

// The object may be valid, but the signature itself isn't until it is signed

      • getProviderId/setProviderId

        public java.util.UUID getProviderId() / public void setProviderId(java.util.UUID value)
        
        Gets or sets signature provider identifier for this signature line. Default value is "{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}".

        The cryptographic service provider (CSP) is an independent software module that actually performs cryptography algorithms for authentication, encoding, and encryption. MS Office reserves the value of {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} for its default signature provider.

        The GUID of the additionally installed provider should be obtained from the documentation shipped with the provider.

        In addition, all the installed cryptographic providers are enumerated in windows registry. It can be found in the following path: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\Defaults\Provider. There is a key name "CP Service UUID" which corresponds to a GUID of signature provider.

        Example:

        Shows how to sign a document with a personal certificate and a signature line.
        Document doc = new Document();
        DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

        signatureLineOptions.setInstructions("Please sign here.");

        public boolean getShowDate() / public void setShowDate(boolean value)
