Hello, I’m AiRon, an automated tech support bot :robot:
While you wait for one of our customer support representatives, I can help you with your question.


To determine if a PDF file contains a digital signature, specifically a certification signature, you can use Apryse’s PDF software APIs. Certification signatures are unique in that they certify the entire document and allow you to verify its integrity.

Some things you can try:

  • Use the Apryse SDK to open the document and check for certification signatures.

  • Utilize the PDFDoc class to access the document’s signature fields.

  • Use the GetSignatureFieldIterator method to iterate through the signature fields and identify any certification signatures.

  • Check if the first signature field is a certification signature by verifying its properties.



Here are some resources that might help you:


Hopefully, this helps you solve your problem while you wait for a human to get back to you.
